Story behind the song
The music for this song was pretty much written, I had some lyrics for it, but hadn't tracked the vocals. I had been having chest/throat problems for about six months. OK, so I'm a guy and don't fancy seeing the doctor. I figured it would go away on it's own, but it didn't. I couldn't sing more than a few lines before taking an hour break. The album had crawled to a stop because I couldn't track any vocals. Time turned to August, I was now having trouble even talking with the pain. Doctor dislikes aside, I finally went to an ENT specialist on a Thursday. He looked me over found a tumor in my throat and told me to get a CAT scan immediately. I went in for the scan the next day. I went home Friday and rewrote the words to this song. Though it was extremely painful, the events drove me to record the vocals that weekend. I got a call the following week. The tumor was benign and I had it removed a few months later. It took about two years before my voice came back in full.
Lyrics
spent the last year of my life come to understand my darker side when the boy and man at last collide is your mercy there, can I trust, can I rely someone like you, can make it all turn out right someone like you, open my eyes show me life you are like the souvenier I collected on the beach that day when I was six and mom and dad promised they would always stay you are like the ancient coin that I found when I was ten took to school for show and tell on the playground showed my friends someone like you when mountains fall and valleys rise and heaven shakes stars from the skys you are the one who dries my tears you are the one who calms my fears soon the morning comes
