    LYRICALLY: I like to let my more ambiguous songs speak for themselves. TECHNICALLY & MUSICALLY: Yuck! This is just a rough in every way. I warn you in advance so that if you're not the type of person to *enjoy* hearing rough tracks, you'll just quit while you're ahead.

    Story Behind the Song
    Still a work in progress, as with all of these songs. This one is challenging for me vocally, since I'm mostly self-taught and still very amateur, yet I tend to get really into singing this one and forget what few singing basics I usually remember. A lot of these vocal and instrumental parts, as with most of my work here, is one-to-four-take stuff. (If I really knew how to play and sing all these things, I suppose that wouldn't be a bad thing.)

    Lyrics
    (incomplete at this writing)

    I was built
    to reject
    interference
    by emotion
    And now I
    I expect
    that the payoff plan
    has been set in motion

    But it moves
    in a strange way
    and I find
    in my hand
    Like a toy
    Humanity
    and with it History,
    the lay of the land

    And I can't swallow my reaction.
    I pace the room,
    Eight strides across the floor.
    I'm stuck in the middle.
    There's never been a middle before!
    I can't take my time...
    It carries too big a price to pay
    I can't speak my mind...

    But I won't walk away this time
    I'm all the way this time
    All the way
