    Story Behind the Song
    Recorded Oct. 13th, 2002, in Linux using Audacity 1.0.

    I recorded the guitar line first, then I recorded the vocals, and then I recorded the guitar line again, and put one in the left channel, and one in the right channel. Then, I recorded the short lead line using a BOSS MT-2 Metal Zone pedal and the wahwah effect that is a filter in Audacity.

    The microphone used was a cheap Labtec, and it worked better than I thought it would.

    The guitar was my Jackson/Charvel Model 4. Using the bridge single-coil only, with the active electronics turned off.

    Lyrics
    When you have no one to turn to
    You start spinning in circles
    When everything goes only wrong
    Things only get worse

    Left alone in the middle of nowhere
    I hear voices from afar
    But no matter how far I crawl
    They are just whispers in my mind

    (Chorus)
    Choking on the sands of time
    Nobody here to tell me why
    I was the one left behind
    Choking on the sands of time

    Throat is dry, lips sewn shut
    No way to quench this thirst
    What is it going to take
    Before someone comes to help?

    All this time, tried not to wonder
    But still my mind inquires
    Why am I the only one?
    Why doesn't anyone care?

    I'm trapped inside the hourglass
    The glass walls cage me in
    I find it hard to breath now
    Don't have long to live

    (Final Chorus)
    Choking on the sands of time
    Nobody here to tell me why
    I was the one left to die
    Choking on the sands of time
