Composed at a time when all three producers had experienced the loss of a loved one within a year and a half of each other, Billy, Danny, and Maynard struggled to make the song a monument to each of their respective losses, which lead to conflict during production.
The lyrics were inspired by a mee...
[Verse 1]
So glad to see you have
Overcome them, completely silent now
With Heaven's help
You've cast your demons out
[Chorus]
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
To the dead
To the dead
[Verse 2]
Recall the deeds as if they're all
Someone else's atrocious stories
Now you stand reborn before us all
So glad to see you well
[Chorus]
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
To the dead
To the dead
[Bridge]
With your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down
[Hook]
(With your halo slipping down)
And I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
[Hook]
(With your halo slipping down)
And I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
[Hook]
(With your halo slipping down)
And I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
[Hook]
(With your halo slipping down)
And I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about making your amends
[Outro]
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down
To choke you now
