Story Behind The Song

After doing the song Anthill Part 2, back when it was just plain old Anthill, Pat said we should make a little concept albumn type thing. So I started messing around with this song. Built it off the last three chords from the original anthill....then it just kinda took off from the begining orchestra section. Decided it needed to be about being born, since the original anthill is about dying. The plan is to make one other, a 3rd part to represent the afterlife.

Song Description

Original tribute to Pink Flyod and Alice in Chains.

Lyrics

Welcome to all the little girls and boys
preparing to take this wonderful journy with us.
You're about to enter into a place of great wonderments and amusements.......
........at times, it may seem like majic.
So try and remain calm, it's all a part of the plan.
The journy through the light can be a bit jolting.....
........and for some, a bit messy.
Take a brief moment to compose yourself.
Next, find your place.
Do your best.

Chorus:
Welcome to the World,
things won't stand still, while you find yourself.
Blinded and cold,
mouth of rust, it may feel like hell.
Ignore the blood,
it's only there to remind ourselves,
How precious time,
has a way of taking time.

Just breathe.....
light blinding and white.
The frigid extraction, just doesn't seem right.
Is this life?
What's to be...become of me?

A splatter of red
in the bright blinding light!
That voice in my head, won't calm me tonight!
Blind to the world, but not to the feel.
Where am I now? Is this real?

Repeat Chorus

Just breathe......just breathe......
