And they all had a true self that they would soon discover

Breathe in for a moment as the dust settles on your skin"

Excellent! One of your very best!

Thanks, Bob! Yep, the music had to be BIGGER THAN BIG to approach the impact of the excellent-though-dark lyrics. Just when I thought I had it BIG enough, I'd find another layer to add to it. For example, I think the "nobody's home" harmonies were the last add, but now I can't imagine how I ever left them out. BIGGER isn't always better, except when it is, right?

Thanks for the vocal compliment. If I had David Draiman's pipes I would done a more dramatic take, 'cause the song could take it. Sometimes we have to settle for the little we have though. Sigh. smile

Too many guitars (is that a thing?)
