This is a song I wrote when I was trying to grasp how hard things were going to be for me in the future. When you set large goals for yourself it's a long way up. I know it's long, but it's a journey I can make. This is the final track (11) from my first album "Do We Go Wrong?"

This was fairly short compared to a lot of other things you have done, but this was still decent. Once again, it seems like you're using a whole new kind of instrument. I keep thinking that all of your songs are about you talking to a girlfriend. I guess it's just that most songs are like that. You're really talking more to he audience. Even with its short length, it's fairly effective. I've probably learned more about you personally than any other audio artist.

I like how you consistently keep up the rythum. We all hate being lonely. We always have long journeys in our lives but the pain will in fact end some day. It's great that this music comes off as so soothing. I could have sworn you say "sex" at one point.

Affinitia responds:

I do say "sex" at one point. One of the lines from this song is "How do you breathe another breath after all of that sex that was meaningless?" And I was definitely talking to the audience with the song. This is mostly about what makes us feel down and how hopeless we feel when we are down, as people. I also say "It's a long way to the top, it's a long way to get out, when you're lost."
