    The song is inspired by the movie "Johnny Get Your Gun". The video includes clips from the movie. The movie is about a man who is injured in war and loses almost all of his senses. As he struggles with his emotions and his descent into insanity, he fights to maintain his awareness of reality and communicate with the hospital staff

    You’re exactly right. The song is inspired by the movie Johnny Got His Gun based on the anti-war novel written by Dalton Trumbo in 1939. It’s about the horror of war as exemplified by the young devastatingly injured young man lying in the bed who lost all of limbs, his vision and hearing in a WWI battle. The doctors think him unaware but that’s not true. He’s aware of everything. An extraordinarily hard to read, excellent book and Dalton Trumbo was an extraordinary man.

    The Blues was about getting certain feelings out and sometimes it made you dance. Thrash Metal was all about getting out feelings as well. The kind that would keep you up at night or make you explode if you didn't get them out. And we moshed and stood and banged our heads in time to the beat, so in essence, dancing in our own way. We were a pissed off generation. It's why as the years passed you saw gangster rappers and metalheads making music together. The things talked about may have been a little different but the raw aggression and passion was very much the same. As was the prolific lyrics. Thrash moves fast so it needed a ton of lyrics.
