And that goes for anything-the end of a job, or whatever it may be.” And then you somehow kind of realize what is coming and you have to live with it.
It’s similar to ‘The Destination Onward’-you know what’s coming, you know what the reality is of things, but you deny what’s going to happen. Listening to the song, I realized it’s about avoiding reality. “This is another of those things where I didn’t realize what it really meant to me until after I wrote it. These are really fucking depressing lyrics, but it’s just what was happening when we were writing the album.” After I wrote it, I realized that it’s about what’s happening with the band, and one day it’s going to end. It’s not something you can really get ready for.
It’s as if you question what’s coming, but it doesn’t matter because it’s coming anyway. “To me, this song is about knowing what’s coming and questioning what is ahead.

When it came time to record the vocals for Long Day Good Night, Fates Warning singer Ray Alder was living under strict pandemic lockdown rules in his adopted home of Madrid, Spain.
