"Each Year - This song practically wrote itself. It was built up from a bass part that Mathieu (bass guitar) came up with, and everyone basically just threw their parts on top of it. I had recently read To Kill a Mockingbird, which had a huge impact on me, and John and I talked a lot about it on our way down to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Those experiences served as the lyrical inspiration for John and I."
to kill a mocking bird was inspiration to this song.
