This song was so immediate. I wrote it on piano and initially it was a simple piano ballad. Robert and I pulled the tool box of sounds out and replaced piano with distorted guitar and drum sounds from hell and the result is what you hear today.

I was learning the lyrics as I sang it.... hence the fact that the chorus lyrics change each time I sing it. It was meant to be the demo but became the final vocal just because of how earnest the delivery was.

The album originally opened up with this song in early sequences but we found it disturbed too many people so we had to move it further down the track list to ease people into the direction change. I love the lyric 'just like a spinal chord severed and broken, but the spark still tries'
