about

Preceded by "Grief" and "Descent" we arrive at "Acceptance." Which I think is a misunderstood word. People seem to mix up "acceptance" with "improvement." You HAVE to accept your status before things CAN get better...but it doesn't always follow that they actually DO. You can accept any reality but still be stuck with that reality.

In this case there's a victorious tone to the acceptance. You can read whatever you want into that.

As a look behind the curtain, in its earliest forms, this is the portion of "The Cycle" that at one point had lyrics. Obviously I did not include them here. I considered typing them out in full here...but I won't because if anything the age of some of these songs clearly shows that I never throw anything away, so I might use them some day.

I will say that the final line over the solid chords at the end was, "Let me rest alone but not alone."
