Story behind the song
This is a metaphorical look inside the mind - all those fragmented images, stories, thoughts, and places. Words that won't go away, anger not forgotten, lost opportunities. The different textures of moods. Do you often feel your head is too full or too loud?
Lyrics
There's a 1000 dreams way down by the river, There's a lonely lane where nobody goes, There's a voice that always thinks it knows better, now, Plans are worn away like dust from a stone, Forever, and ever, forever and ever, and ever. Headland (headland) The long road through my eyes, Headland (headland) My secrets cannot hide, Headland (headland) The deeper waters mystify my soul. Unfamiliar smiles that fade in the sunlight, Years of malice buried under the snow, There's a breeze, it whispers words that don't matter, now, All those fears are ghosts that wander alone, Forever, and ever, forever and ever and ever. Headland (headland) The long road through my eyes, Headland (headland) My secrets cannot hide, Headland (headland) The deeper waters mystify my soul. It's my headland, headland, Welcome to my headland, It's my headland, headland, Oh, it's my headland, Welcome to my headland. Copyright 2007 Rodrica Rudge All rights reserved

A great idea lyrically. This is quite catchy. Are these keyboard drums ? They have a very clean sound.

Wow,that's a beautiful song with a nice chord-sequence.Some deviation from standard progressions are very much wellcome,and are kind "food for the brain".Masterful mix-mast ,as well.

Interesting retro grade riff intro caught me right away and is a cool bridge to the vocals, which are first class as is the production. That retro grade riff is repeated effectively - provides a tidal pull. The guitar work is stellar. Awesome Rodz!
