The Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET), was the world's first operational packet switching network and the core network of a set that came to compose the global Internet. The network was funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) of the United States Department of Defense for use by its projects at universities and research laboratories in the US. The packet switching of the ARPANET was based on designs by Lawrence Roberts of the Lincoln Laboratory.
Packet switching, today the dominant basis for data communications worldwide, was a new concept at the time of the conception of the ARPANET. Prior to the advent of packet switching, both voice and data communications had been based on the idea of circuit switching, as in the traditional telephone circuit, wherein each telephone call is allocated a dedicated, end to end, electronic connection between the two communicating stations. Such stations might be telephones or computers. The (temporarily) dedicated line is typically composed of many intermediary lines which are assembled into a chain that stretches all the way from the originating station to the destination station.
Majesty Warpaint
When I'll hold your hand
When I held your hand
When I helped you
When I held your hand
You still went the other way
And you wanted me to stay
With my arms stretching away
With my arms stretching away
I coulnd't stand outside
Cause I adore your face
I adore your face
Could it be light harm
The same, could it be
I'm your mirror
Shall we we all those things
That you never wanted to face
So you let me slip away
You just watched me walk away
And I just have to ask
Do you know your fate?
Do you know your fate?
Could it be that
I'm your
Could it be that
You are my
Majesty
When it all comes back
When it all falls into place
Could it be that
I don't want it anyways
Could it be
There was a day we used to laugh
And I wanted you by my side
The perfect match
I don't understand
The perfect match
Could it be that
I'm your
Could it be that
You are my
Majesty
You could have been marquis
You could have been marquis
You could have been marquis
