[[Mark Eitzel]] told ''Contrast'' that the song came to him one night sitting on the steps of his house in Ohio. "There was a stormy sky - the sky was beautiful. You look down from the sky and everything is stupid. Everything is a waste; everything is asleep and dead. And I looked up at the sky and it seemed like the sky was trying to say something to me. If nobody could hear the pain up there ,if there was nobody to witness, then the world is completely and utterly desolate."<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.geocities.ws/rsjbraz/amccontrast1988.html | work=Contrast | date=Winter 1988 | author= | title=American Music Club | accessdate=June 16, 2017}}</ref> | ||
