The "No more hurting deeds" verse sparseness works though and could be a storm's eye inside a more aggressive arrangement.

I'm not sure the duet in the chorus works. They don't seem to support each other.

Having written that I think it's the bones of a fabulous song.


Thanks Ray for your insightful comment smile Yes, the song has many contradicting elements and I'm not sure why I did it that way. I felt that music cannot be aggressive, it needed to lighten the burden of the story and to add unsettling feeling.
