Everything that I wanted to say already has been said.
All I can add is I loved both the song and the message. I was just watching the news about the Texas church shootings so the "I like to walk across the street Without a gun aimed at my head" lines really hit home.
Two big thumbs up!

What a beautiful and heartbreaking song! Knowing that the song is about survivors of war makes the song even more impactful, and gives it a deeper level of meaning. I think that, to those who do not know much about the struggles vets go through, that it is quite an eye-opening song.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful song. Thanks for the kind comments Ember. Peter

Hi Peter & Leon,
This is great song with a fantastic arrangement. The introduction of the big drums came in at the perfect time and the guitar outro was splendid. Totally enjoyable listen! Congrats on a job very well done.
ALan Thanks Alan much appreciated. Peter

Peter & Leon,
The lyrics pack a punch in an understated way and Leon`s vocal matches that feeling.
The production is great - such a cool build when the drums come in.
I was hoping for a bazing guitar solo and you didn`t disappoint!
Excellent work from both of you.
Robert Robert Appreciate those kind comments. Glad you enjoyed the solo. Peter

Hi Peter.
Great composition.
I found this very thought provoking and the lyrics helped develop
vivid word pictures.
Love the powerful bridge and that ties it all together.
Great ballad mate.
Rob Appreciate the comments Rob. Peter

Hello, Peter & Leon
The intro. is splendid.
This tune is a really beautiful and heartbreaking song!
The drums with deep reverb that enters from the middle is wonderful.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Tom once told us that a sad tune can be better told with a catchy engaging (or even upbeat arrangement).
I think this is a classic example of that. A fine vocal and melody and a scorching guitar solo all add up to keep you hooked from the get go to the end. It really serves to focus one even more on the message.
This is some very strong stuff you guys have going here. And the spot on arrangement and mix ices the cake (great drum sound).
J&B J&B Thanks for the kind comments. Much appreciated. Peter

Leon & Peter,
One of your best! A very strong write. Excellent vocal.
The production works perfectly. Great build. Nice mix.
The drums are just right.
The outro solo is outrageously good...
An excellent listen. Well done!
floyd floyd The "outrageously good" comment made me smile (a lot). Peter

Peter, I really like this! For me the feel of a song is everything. I feel this one from the top of my head to the soles of my feet. Wonderful production. That intro had me from the first note.

I really liked that one Peter!! Great song with a very impactful message! The heavy reverb on the drums in my opinion really is a good choice and the guitar work in the last third of the song really carries it home! Thanks, Torrey
