| Typhoon – The Honest Truth Lyrics

This song is an anthem for humanity. It's rough and raw- far from perfect; but PERFECTLY far from perfect. Askew enough to help folks of all walks relate on a very simple level....It's about owing your choices and owning who you are....and embracing imperfections- you're nothing special :)
There is a slight tempo change....and a break. The song changes from a march to a slight riff....just for him to say that we aren't "something Special" and that he can finally see the "light" through the "doorjamb". Nevermind the reference to walking a "filed line"...we ALL know that feeling. The Honest Truth is just that....a truth |

@[Steph01924:28498] 5 years later....this song makes more and more sense. The music has a primitive tone from the rhythm to the actual sound of being in room jamming into a tapedeck recorder. It starts at the end, which is interesting....Eternity smiles is the entire point...only if you reckon with you're own demons, with your own mistakes....basically reckon with yourself to better understand the world around and then...move on. The instrumental is pretty cool and accents the tone of the message...there is a march for the rules and laws of the song...then he drops on the Universe the we are nothing special and the song breaks...then the song uses the same march to deliver another message of greater meaning...and then there's that Trumpet...solo, unrefined, in a room all by itself...but owning it...I'm probably off...but what the hell...it's a great song, and fitting for the time. |

@[colcifer:28497] 7 years later....this songs rings true. Folks are still yelling into the mouth of a cave...wanting to hear something different Instead of turning around, moving forward....toward some sunlight. Just a thought. I dig your interpretation. The song is a bit deeper than most suspect.
