Hi Moker, Thanks for jumping in on this and for all the kind words. This was the most thorough of all the submissions start to finish so far. I LOVED the additional guitar parts, I wont steal them directly lol.. but will have to definitly being adding more lead guitar in there now for sure  You kinda fell victim to your own talents here on this one.. your guitar outshined your other contributions & melody overall. It was well put together and especially for so fast. However the phrasing just never really locked in.. lines were either slightly too long or too short for the most part. I feel the sand on my face as I wipe a single tear away - was too long in that spot. & I know that when I finally make it home It's Gonna Be Good - felt short when I get you in my arms, never let you go If I can just hold on, & somehow get out of here alive Gonna Be Good It's all in my dreams, the reasons to survive Then it never locked into a meter or memorable hook.. The lines seem to come out of different directions, maybe too complicated. not simple enough The lyrics were well written, but I don't think they quite fit this one right. What was impressive too was that you had this subject matter and didn't force War and soldier lyrics down our throats like many songs do. You did an EXCELLENT job of keeping it more vague and universal in my opinion. Nice job bro & thank you.. I put this right in the playlist with the others as we keep going. * For everyone the lyrics are important...but right now if you have a melody and not really any lyrics do what i do.. MUMBLE and make up & sing words that sound like your saying something..but make no sense at all. That's what I do! Do not let your lyrical thoughts ruin or limit your HOOK! No one will ever learn your great lyrics if they dont grab your melody & hooks on the first listen... * What happened to Samuel Joe. Joe you wanted all the music now you got it * Where is Niteshift hiding? So it's okay if you don't have set words yet.... Rock lyrics aren't so easy are they? lol...
