Not only my favorite song of the album, but one of my favorites of all time. The riff is unlike anything I have ever heard, goosebumps every time. I've listened to this song more than 200 times in the few weeks the album has been out, and still love it. Like most songs with hard vocals, it's difficult to nail down the lyrics 100% until you read them. Once I read these lyrics, wow, I'm not ashamed to admit that I was brought to tears: "To the years spent waiting on the winds of change, this is penance paid.
This is my penance paid, to the morning Sun, whose warmth never found this young man's face." These lines have tremendous personal meaning to me.
