Threshold - Pilot in the Sky of Dreams
This song has grown on me so much, especially the vocal melodies and words, keyboards, and heavy, driving guitar riff. It's a progression through life and our dearest hopes to soar through the sky, damaged by our fears that our planes will drift off course and crash on the rocks. Who truly is there to keep us on course? It's a question we all have different answers to, but we know whoever keeps us afloat well, and daily have heartfelt exchanges like this. It's a line like this which cuts me deeply, why I love this intricate combination of intensity and sheer emotion. Even without words, there exist moments like the wrenching guitar solo at 8:22 which enliven the feeling.
"Did I promise you a sky where rain would never fall,
or did you listen to a lie?
Did you radio to base?
I waited for your call, but you left without a trace
But I can stop your plane from drifting out of range..."
