There's no way to know where to go from here. It
seems to me I've been thinking about it all these
years you've been gone, like there was some big
mystery out there coming for me. But the longer I
sit here and wait for it the more I realize that it's
never going to come. That it was up to me to go
and dispel the myth of it myself. But having
realized that, It's like my feet are stuck in cement
and I can't move. You know Chris has kids now, a
boy and a girl and you'd love them. Tamer than we
were when we were little. I look at them and think
that maybe Chris had it figured out a long time ago.
That he went searching and figured out that there's
just some old man behind a curtian pulling ropes
and levers. Sometimes I want to ask him about it
but I can't bring myself to do it. What would he think
I wonder? Who would be the failure then?"
That thingy there was part of the writing in the video for "Weapon" from Avalanche. He's talking like the person he's writing to, Pat, is dead. So maybe that's who he is talking to who he's calling Patty, and telling him/her to shine a light down on him. Maybe an old friend of matt's?
