Premise:

I've been so afraid of introspection. (The source of all disease is of the spirit.)
I didn't want to admit all my imperfections. (Therefore, the spirit, man can cure most diseases.)

Now that you're here, I see what I've become. (Man's body is a machine.)
I know what I'm missing, and what must be done. (I know my circuit and what's good for it.)

I can see. (I hear the thunder a hundred miles away.)

Now I can see just where I went wrong.
No one's an island and no one's that strong.

Now I can see: I failed on my own
I can't do this by myself.
It's time to come home.

Most of these reviews I could write from memory. Not this one, which explains why you’re down here – Awesome backing track – vaguely Hawking-esque Robot Scientist talking is not working for me. There are no fallen angels on earth. Just FYR. It’s all a bit Baz Luhrmann's "sunscreen" TBH.

love your take on the challenge, this has buckets of dreamy ambience. Bold move to have such a long intro before the vocal kicks in but it pays off. I’m not crazy about the sample coming back in over the main vocal but I really like everything else about this.
