about

'The Deepest Wound' opened our first album back 9 years ago.

Robert and I wrote it as one of our first attempts to write together, and the riff was Robert's and the chords largely mine.

In the intervening years it has fallen out of the set and is not a big number of ours anymore, even though it used to be very popular live. I always felt that as a straight forward rock song, it has a lot to commend it. So when we came to thinking about pieces that could be revisited, this one stuck out.

The riff is retained although Anton could't resist playing with it's timing in spots and trying to bring a bit more out of it, which adds a unique twist.

Steve's drums have been altered to suit the acoustic arrangement and we've explored guitar layering with Dean and Doug's various layers.

It does highlight how much more experience the band has vocally, as when compared to the original, the harmonies are far and away stronger.

The solo is played on an ES175, and takes key themes from the original, but ornaments them somewhat. The keyboards are limited to an electric piano in the verse, but with the hammond coming through in the chorus. The Laud that I play is the same instrument I played the intro from 'The Bond of Mutual Distrust' on, way back in like 2005 or something. Time flies.

lyrics

Listen to the voice that speaks
Without idea or thought
I knew that I could hear it
So I've never gotten caught
Paint my face and show my name
Hide reason from you all
I'd played the part so well
that you'd forgotten that I'd fall

Keep me safe and keep me warm
Keep me from losing sight
Keep me from dreaming same old shit
From night, to night to night
I can't think and I can't feel
The way I always was
Hold back the tears and show no fear
Shake and I dissolve

I never had it, I'm bleeding from it,
I never had it, I'm aching for it,
I never had it.
The Deepest Wound.

I never stayed, I never left,
I'm always in your heart.
Another thought, another dream
That's tearing us apart.
I found no gain, the pressure held,
It's breaking at the seams
One on one, we held the sun,
Your laughter turns to screams

You're next to me but far away,
I brought what I had sold
See the noise and taste the smell
It burns when I turn cold
Melt the bricks and drink the fire
Discover my insides
My Insides turn to outsides
when I left it all behind.

I never had it, I'm bleeding from it,
I never had it, I've never lost it,
I never known it. The Deepest Wound.
