PsychoticSheep"Cause if he ever saw it / It was through these eyes of mine / And if he ever suffered / It was me who did his crying"
"Tomorrow Wendy" was written by Andy Prieboy and released in 1990, a devastating portrait of dying during the AIDS crisis. Prieboy wrote it about a childhood friend who, after her HIV diagnosis, chose to die by heroin overdose rather than slowly waste away from AIDS. The line "She's walking to the end of the line and there she meets the faces she keeps in her heart and mind" reveals that Wendy is not greeted by angels at the end, but by those who have already died. The "chilly grey November sky" captures the cold isolation so many patients experienced back then.
At the same time, the song is a furious reckoning with organized religion. "God got his ass kicked the first time he came down here slumming" exposes Christian salvation doctrine as inadequate. The question "what he thought it would get us" remains an indictment of false comfort, while "We can make believe that Kennedy is still alive" reveals a culture of denial that prefers illusions over facing reality.
The most radical statement comes at the end: "Cause if he ever saw it, it was through these eyes of mine. And if he ever suffered, it was me who did his crying." If there is anything divine, it exists only in our capacity to feel and mourn. The pain of this world is the only pain that exists; no help comes from above. The final "Goodbyes" are therefore directed not only at friends, but also at the illusions that crumble in the face of death.
