yeah, this song is made by the way Eddie lands the final thought in each verse

I'm not sure this one gets improved with more layers.

High or low, where’d you go
Are you stuck in the middle
A spectral invisible ghost
I’m here juxtaposed
Like images of angels in the snow
Our courage melts away, it comes then goes

Where you been, cannot find
A glimpse of my friend
Don’t know where or when one of us left
The other behind
Divisions came and troubles multiplied
Incisions made by scalpel blades of time

Comes then goes
Comes then goes

Cannot say ‘how you been’
I can guess and conjecture
My altered perceptions unclear
Please interfere
Sadness comes with bitter sea of tears
Would some love be best had it not appeared?

Is this you, here I stand
Intense recollections of pain
Self-neglecting again
Like you I keep it in
Thought you found a game where you could win
It’s all vivisection in the end

Comes and goes
Comes and goes
Comes and goes

High or low, try again
She fell off the alter, a vision
you caught her but then
A woodcut in red
I wish it was not you that she had bled
Selfishness navigation with no end

Where’d you sleep, cannot find
A deeper connection in the face of rejection
I’m trying
I’m trying
Evidence in the echoes of your mind
Leads to me to believe we missed the signs

Can I try one last time
Could all use a savior from human behavior some times
And the kids are all right
The queen of collections took your time
Sadness comes because some of it was mine

Comes then goes
Comes then goes
Comes and goes
Comes and goes

yeah, I started working before I saw your post :( But we came up with the same lyrics. The part you were sure of is vivisection. Great word


Nice!

yellow moon is a really good song!

But that's not necessarily the best comparison. This feels like a campfire road song. Yellow Moon is an elegy

i'm just giving an equivalent from the last album in tone and feel. this is miles and miles better.



Future Days might be closer, but I can see why you'd compare the two.

They are both quite good (this and Yellow Moon)

Damn I love this song. Feels like the ode to Cornell too.

nice work here - a few differences from what was posted but I think yours are right. You have a good ear for this.

Ed sounds fantastic on this...squarely in his 50s register and he nails it

I'm amazed people love this one after so much "just another Ed solo song" from this board

it's just Ed and an acoustic

I like it, I'm just still surprised

Probably par for the course for what is, for most of us, probably the weirdest day of our lives to date.

I'm pretty emotional today. My nine year old and I are cooped up in a two bedroom apartment and I'm waiting for my folks to run the gauntlet back from Florida tomorrow. Had tickets to the show tomorrow night (although that'll happen eventually).

This was such a great surprise today. Even better that it's fucking terrific.

This was the song I least expected to like. Yet here it is...quickly gaining momentum as my favorite track on the album.
