This song reminds me a little bit of:

GNR - Coma (Use Your Illusion I)


Obviously not musically, but a similar situation to explore.. the mind in a body that isn't moving so well.


I like this song, but I think it would come across better if we had one more 'normal' song on the album.. IMO.

Normal? Hmm, normal is good in small doses(The Pot) but not alot.

The vocal style in this song made me think of Axl's vocals on the Use Your Illusion albums. That cynical, almost humorous in your face weird shit.

Coma is one of my favorite songs right behind Third Eye.

yeah for sure, good pickup. i love Coma and this definately is in a similar vein, first person narrative losing my mind kinda thing. Also coma changes tack musically a lot (for GNR anyway) with different parts throughout, i guess a parallel to tool there as well.
