Story behind the song
This song is about moving to a different Country, and opening the boxes bought with you from your old life, both Roger and I emigrated to a non English speaking Country some years ago. This song marks the point in time for packing and returning home to once again open Pandora's box.
Lyrics
THE CRY OF PANDORA MEMORIES OF DAYS GONE BY ARE WITH ME 'TIL I DIE CHILDREN PLAYING HAND IN HAND ONCE UPON A TIME UNDERSTANDING COMES WITH EVERY PASSING YEAR MISCONCEPTIONS HIDING UNDERLYING FEAR - SEE YOU THERE (IT'S) ALL ABOUT THE TIMES THE FUN WE HAD HOPING IT WOULD NEVER END - IN DREAMS BEFORE I GO TOO FAR FROM THE RECALL OF THE PAST THE PATHWAY TO THE WORLD AND THE VOYAGE OF MY SOUL - I WILL BE THERE YOU CAN SAY THAT IT'S THE SUN OR THE LONG WARM STARRY NIGHTS AND YOU CAN SAY THAT IT'S THE WAY I NEED TO FIND THE ROAD TO MY --LONG JOURNEY HOME !!

You guys keep raising the bar with each new song that you publish and this one has that vintage grit but also heaps of newer edgy rock - keep on rockin'

Doomtrain's original songs are not only superbly written & performed but every time an interestingly deep new concept usually teetering somewhere between profound & brilliant. Five LPs in so far & not a bad one in the bunch . Amazing * * S*C * *

Once again that distinctive great DOOMTRAIN sound here!! Wonderful instrumentations in this rock tune my friends. Liked the guitar lead so much guys ( cool phrasings/licks), really, fantastic one, I was really impressed of the guitar lines!! Vivid rocking vocals in a very high quality production. You both always deliver top shelf works my friends, this time too: BRAVO Alan and Roger!! :) -Spin-

Love the Classic Rock feel here - reminded me some of Rush. Fantastic tone on the guitars, bass, drums - and of course your signature vocals! ;^)) Rock On!!

No mistaking that Doomtrain sound! A very dramatic and emotional sounding track. Fantastic vocals and stunningly good guitar work create a very soulful, powerful song. Great to hear a new one from you again.
