Space

General
Have you ever heard song lyrics and found yourself wondering what inspired them? What events the writer must have gone through to write what you're hearing?
Every time I listen to "Space" by Slow Motion Reign, I wonder. And every time I listen to "Space" by Slow Motion Reign, I find myself tearing up before the end of the song.

Space
Written letters carried up by rising balloons
I know that you'll get this someday
Everybody tells me that it's time to move on
But I still have to write this letter
So you gotta go to space
One way or another
Soldier of the human race
So you gotta go to space
On a suicide mission
Which one are we on?
Do you even know that you're gone?
Disappointed couldn't call you for a few months
After what you'd done nothing was left
You disappeared from off the face I hoped you would phone
One day wondering I called mother said you were dead
Before you left I wish I'd said
All this time I wasn't angry
Despite mistakes you had to make
Long ago my love forgave you
I had let it go
Long time ago
Not soon enough for you to know
Fire in the car, alarm
Firefighters on the run-on
Couldn't save the kids on time
Everybody burned alive
I had let it go
Long time ago
Not soon enough for you to know
The bass player is amazing. I think my favorite song was "Via Satellite." But this one is definitely good.
And yes, I remember when we both sat up and listened as the groove hit on "Via Satellite". Funny, we went to that concert to hear V.A.S.T. and came away loving Slow Motion Reign.
[center]Mystic as it seems, she called me from her dreams.
While she was asleep, rest divine and sweet.
Insomniac deranged, I know where you go,
Sleepless when it rains, to your embryo.
We'll build our own underworld..."
Very nice. And deep. And.... personal.
