From an old interview from some Metal Odyssey
Mike: Musically, I can only speak from a lyrical standpoint. I can say that my lyrics are taken from my daily interaction with people, judgments that I make, and things that I see. My feelings on these matters come out during practice, get internally processed, then edited, and come out in song. Every lyric has something behind it and some connection to my life. Personally I can say that we are all "glass half empty" kind of guys, and view our environment with our own sense of skepticism, distrust. None of us really interact with our environment because we are uncomfortable in it, and we judge it. So when things are crushing, strange and intense, it's because the judgments we have made of our environment have made their way into our
music. We're people too, and we can't hold onto that type of bitterness--it has to come out somehow, Rosetta is our outlet. At least that's how I see it. That's how I feel when we play: bitter at all I have seen, and I feel overwhelmed at work trying to change it.
