Lately, the song, Pilate has really been catching my attention, especially the line, stunned by my own reflection, its looking back, sees me too clearly, never want to go there again. I get that line, but not really sure that I understand the rest of the song. Any ideas! :?

    Read somewhere that Jeff wrote it as the first part to the song Low Light.

    Pilate shows the problem, Low Light was the solution.

    Something about how he was reading a book about Pilate being trapped on a mountain top alone except for his dog for eternity. The details are foggy but something to the effect of Jeff relating to Pilate when he lives in Montana.

    Thanks, I'll have to read,"The Master and Margarita." It's an interesting song.
