The guitar needs to be louder, the song needs to be shorter and it needs a sung chorus to add interest and emotional punch IMHO.
The lyrics are great but the quantity dilutes the message.
You could base a religion around this.

For me this is all about the lyrics and getting them heard the best way i can, the guitar melody is just something i put together to keep in the background but in no way make it to loud that it would distract the listener from what the lyrics is all about.

A religion of truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, an antidote, ah the wonders of it all
Thank you Alan.
Overall I think this is excellent--I like it very much. I think it could be made stronger, as someone else mentioned, by tightening it up to make it shorter and by adding a sung chorus between spoken verses--something rich and choral to add punch. If that makes any sense....??

Adding a sung chorus between spoken verses would add a few more minutes to this because there is no way i would leave out any verses but in saying that, adding a few more minutes doesn't bother me and i do believe what you say just might work if i could spend a few hours with a group of musicians like an orchestra, hopefully some time in the future that just might happen.
Thank you Vicki really appreciate your thoughts on this.
