Description
this song is about the endless chase of 'euphoria' through chemical means. the chaos, pleasure, tragedy, and humanity of the substance game; as seen through the eyes of the one going through it. this is the remastered version of the track. same song, with a few tweaks in the mix, and corrected timing issues on the vocals. I think it sounds better. wanted to post it for comparison with the other version...

Lyrics
There's still no one outside
even if the sky opens its eyes
there's no one that can hear the sound
of my reflections lies
oh god it burns it scars me inside
no one can stave my starving plight
my bloated sense of self preservation
cant make it go away tonight
now that I'm your king
it's growing this dirty stretching thing
piercing plotting life its growing
and flowing in my veins
this babies born in fields of glass
he struggles to make us laugh
he's writhing to tear us up
a gift of bleeding love
plastic soldiers get back in line
you're marching to your deaths until I say otherwise
its not just the loss of your soul
its the beginning of the end and I'm in control
brothers don't give up the fight
don't topple down out of muddy sight
I see the whites of their eyes against the skies
I hear the cries of battle rise up in the night
a million bodies lost in the battle field tonight
I feel the light...
If you look in my eyes you'll see I'm filling with lies
is it such a surprise I don't know
oh god I'm calling tonight do a favor for me
you know I want it uncertain ecstasy
is it such a surprise that I cannot go home
you know there's nothing for me
And I don't doubt it
now I close my eyes and I just accept it
you know I have no choice
no I can't reject it
Held captive in my home, beneath a frozen lake
Forsaken to that unwavering, lifeless state
These sad secrets of mine are imprisoned in glass
For the worlds prying eyes, should they venture to pass
Suburbia covered in angry sheets of snow
Blinded white, with the pangs of an uneven flow
Permanent winter has taken place of the heart
In the shell of a life, I sought from the start
even if the sky opens its eyes
there's no one that can hear the sound
of my reflections lies
oh god it burns it scars me inside
no one can stave my starving plight
my bloated sense of self preservation
cant make it go away tonight
now that I'm your king
it's growing this dirty stretching thing
piercing plotting life its growing
and flowing in my veins
this babies born in fields of glass
he struggles to make us laugh
he's writhing to tear us up
a gift of bleeding love
plastic soldiers get back in line
you're marching to your deaths until I say otherwise
its not just the loss of your soul
its the beginning of the end and I'm in control
brothers don't give up the fight
don't topple down out of muddy sight
I see the whites of their eyes against the skies
I hear the cries of battle rise up in the night
a million bodies lost in the battle field tonight
I feel the light...
If you look in my eyes you'll see I'm filling with lies
is it such a surprise I don't know
oh god I'm calling tonight do a favor for me
you know I want it uncertain ecstasy
is it such a surprise that I cannot go home
you know there's nothing for me
And I don't doubt it
now I close my eyes and I just accept it
you know I have no choice
no I can't reject it
Held captive in my home, beneath a frozen lake
Forsaken to that unwavering, lifeless state
These sad secrets of mine are imprisoned in glass
For the worlds prying eyes, should they venture to pass
Suburbia covered in angry sheets of snow
Blinded white, with the pangs of an uneven flow
Permanent winter has taken place of the heart

version of this. It really is a fine piece of work, both musically and vocally. I remember the other version was first rate production and this is too. I must admit to not really noticing the difference without re-listening to the original but I am very happy to listen again and will download this time. Thanks.
Cheers
