My favorite song on this album...but then I like depressing soul-searching stuff...

Hi,

  I agree it's the heaviest song on the CD...which makes it stand out from the others. The lyrics almost call for a little tension in the music...it has been arranged prefectly for the mood...it's a very clostrophobic song and one of my personal favorites. Glen is one of only three writers that I turn to when I can't seem to figure out how to put into words what I'm thinking inside. John Hiatt and Paul Westerberg are the other two.

Did you ever notice that on Toad's albums they would have a much harder song than the rest of them.  

Fear - Stories I Tell
Dulcinea - Listen
Coil - Amnesia

you get my point.  any way i believe that this is his hard song for the album.  Lots of guitar effects and some effects on the mic.  I believe it is just about the burden of responsibilities in life that keep building up.
