Very nice lyric here, and I'm glad for several things....
That you're outta there - painful as it was -
That you haven't settled since
That you're purging, cleansing, & healing
That you're on JPF with a place to share!
That you're finally able to write about it

::hugs!!::

I actually like both 3 & 4 and I'm always saying "tighten" -- but if this is a fast-paced rock song the length won't be as much an issue as if this were a ballad.

Also - you tell a solid visual story here.

I have a close close friend in Missouri whose hubby passed away suddenly in a car crash and THEN three days later she found junk like this -- just like that -- flipping open the phone, etc.
It was awful.
Good thing @that point he was already gone or she'd'a killed him I think. SO sad.
You & my friend Tammy would get along like bffs I betcha. grin

Andy, tell it like it is. & Shred for her, man!!

Best hopes for recording it soon!


Linda
