Haunting guitar and male voice build in tension with string section and swampy drones, climaxing with the lyrics "when all the lights are out"-great for end of dramatic scene or themes of questioning life's illusions, dreams, loss of a loved one, the mystery of death.

Lyrics
Looking back the years have blown so far
So many that I’ve known have gone away
Leaving me with nothing much to hold
Try to find some comfort in the day to day
Little games I play
Sometimes the illusion seems more real
I know my thoughts but not the way I feel
I can hear your voice inside my mind
I can see the light upon your eyes
See it shine
See it shine
Something in the shadows there
Trying to make it out
It gets so hard to see the form behind the veil
When all the lights are out
Looking back the years have blown so far
So many that I’ve known have gone away
Leaving me with nothing much to hold
Try to find some comfort in the day to day
Little games I play
Sometimes the illusion seems more real
I know my thoughts but not the way I feel
I can hear your voice inside my mind
I can see the light upon your eyes
See it shine
See it shine
Something in the shadows there
Trying to make it out
It gets so hard to see the form behind the veil
When all the lights are out
