The intro riff is played through almost the entire song
(This is one of the only two Tallman songs using 2 guitars)
Jay plays the intro, Paul plays the heavy stuff.

This is a guess:
RIFF B

3:01 - 4:13
(There's an underlying guitar part I don't know)

Riff A again, with distortion, no open notes.
One note is played an extra time,

4:14 - 5:09 - I don't know

5:09 - 5:30 - Riff B

5:31 - 6:27 - I don't know

The song goes out on this part:

LYRICS:
in a darkened room, sun burned a hole in your eyes
afraid to leave the tomb, afraid to look at the sky
you will be waking soon, come on and open your eyes
you will be waking soon, come on see through the disguise

head in a grey balloon, waiting to witness a sign
head in a grey balloon, immune to passing of time
you will be waking soon, come on and open your eyes
you will be waking soon, come on see through the disguise

your hollow apathy, is not concerning me
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream
question philosophy, reject hypocrisy
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream

reaching out for something, something I cannot find
reaching out for someone, someone is left behind

your hollow apathy, is not concerning me
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream
question philosophy, reject hypocrisy
stuck somewhere inbetween, a dying wish and a dream
