Perhaps the most heartbreaking line in the entire album. When performed by Betheny about Roxy, this becomes literally true - these are the songs Roxy will never sing, the music lost forever. It captures both the specific tragedy of a vocalist's death and the universal grief over all the unlived possibilities that die with our loved ones.

"Peasanted to pain not committing" captures the guilt of survival - being reduced to mere servitude by grief while lacking the courage to follow into death. It's a brutally honest admission about the temptation of suicide when grieving, and the shame that comes with choosing to live while questioning that choice.
