At least that's how I feel if it comes directly after the 2 Wings song. Ooh, drugs references huh?Ħ.'Lipan Conjuring' I'll take some drugs.ħ.'Lost Keys (Blame Hofmann)' I've taken some drugs.Ĩ.'Rosetta Stoned' Holy shit!!!!! Aliens! the meaning of life or something i forget.ĩ.'Intension' We were born innocent but through our selfishness we learned to separate, hoard and be cruel.ġ0.'Right in Two' The meaning of life? Stop the selfishness, the cruelty, the division and spend your time wisely with love and compassion to make our world and our time the Heaven that we were born from.ġ1.'Viginti Tres' Perhaps God himself accepting Judith into Heaven.

The only way we are going to make it is by working, being and loving together.ģ.'Wings for Marie (Pt 1)' Having to let go of a love.Ĥ.'10,000 Days (Wings Pt 2)' Coming to terms with the loss of a loved one but finding anger for the selfish and hypocritical actions of others around that loved one.ĥ.'The Pot' Fucking hypocrites!. We are all a part of it.Ģ.'Jambi' I was selfish but I've found love is the only thing worth holding onto. More lyrical flow but still with call backs.ġ.'Vicarious' The world is cruel and selfish. Now, coming back to what I mentioned about lyrical theme. I can very easily take the album as a whole this way. And I feel like Wings 1&2 is a fantastic emotional ending that makes thematic call backs to the 'previous' songs on the album. 3 short punchy songs followed by basically 3 grand suites. I know it sounds like a weird off balance. I still can't bring myself to split the tracks so I simply move both after Right in Two.

I absolutely understand the ordering for lyrical theme but musically my mood couldn't keep up.

I always had trouble fully getting into this album and I figured out that the 2 Wings were killing the momentum and The Pot was too hard of a tonal shift.
