	Story Behind the Song This song is about being afraid of letting people know your true self. And hiding the real parts where none can see. Sometimes, those parts are your greatest strengths. Lyrics As I wander through this barren land I hear a voice that needs my hand I turn to see it's you my friend As I look around, surrounding me I see the pieces that used to be And as I near they speak out to me Their words were small and void of certainty The scene proved far too much to see Their prisons are from my iniquity As I turned and ran with an ashen heart I hit that hole and fell apart And started winding down again Bridge And as I fell onto the ground I heard a booming thunderous sound I looked up there high in the sky and saw the Sundogs Shining eyes And Up there among the moon and stars Was a violet galactic Bass guitar And with a cosmic countenance He sang without an utterance He sang, "Stop tracing the paths and steps of past transgressions Words once minced are now and forever You cannot steal back words once spoken You dont have to fix what you have not broken" He sang, "It's ok to be who you are To find your strength, don't look far" As the Sky moves swiftly overhead I hear a voice and see a hand He said, "Let me help you my you my friend" As I turn and look I see A face of mirrored familiarity Standing above altruistically He says, we must find the pieces And make us whole And as we rebuild the circle grows There will be no more winding down again
