A Grasp of Hope: "Destroyed" (Part Five)

 "When You Are Old" a lot of things change, including how you view those things. This track is one of the shortest, but strongest as well; how it can say so much without saying anything?  It just seems to capture the feeling so well. Where am I ? Somewhere near the country it seems like, but I was just in freakin' space! How did I know of that incident with that sleep attack? The twang of this song and this percussive hi-hat picks up where the roots of "The Poison Tree" end, or is that begin? There seems to be a woodpecker somewhere I hear a knocking, and maybe some..no, not cymbals. The hospital is right there and everyone runs in slow motion. "I'll see what I can do" is read on the lips, but you cannot hear anything. What can I do? I'm trying to shave a metal spear with "Sandpaper?" That can get pretty depressing and discouraging, almost to the point of having a "Breakdown," so I stop and just think; not what I think of the music, but just contemplate life for a few minutes. It seems as if all hope is lost, and I hear this drumming of a soldier that is not as such anymore. I hear this alien voice, but see no body. I look around and just stop trying to scrape that space needle; what will it be good for? Like war, absolutely nothing.                                                                                           I may be back on Earth "Unter Den Linden." It's imperative that I find that hospital, but how do I know where they can be? Are they even in Germany? How would I know? Well, You know what? It may be very difficult, but I will find it because I am full of "Fortitude." The arpeggios of sounds in this song are very engaging and as the lights ascend to the volume of the beat, the lights on the buildings do the same thing. I better start NOW! Even though I am pretty anxious and overwhelmed. "How do I even find out?" I shout as I just realize that I do not speak German. But that matters if I actually was in Germany, but I still can't seem to understand anything anyone is saying, and things look so blurry too; I feel this pressure in my ears and I try to breathe but cannot. I cannot even open my mouth, but that is because subconsciously my body is trying to protect itself from drowning because I am under water.WHAT?!
