Graeham Goble: “I wrote that song about how I moved to another state and I missed Adelaide a lot. I used to drive home 8–10 hours each month to visit my family. That’s where the title came from. And then as we used to play 7 nights a week, we were battling for material, we’d go for very long jams on that song, sometimes 20 minutes at a time. And during the long outros, I would hear and come up with different passages, so I would often jot them down and rehearse them and add or take out a bit here and there. Today, I believe that the lyric is about a personal journey, a journey through lifetimes to your soul evolution.”
