I think this is a good thing. Ed hasn't tackled the lightning metaphors since Vitalogy, right?

Think that's a simile.

I think he shares lyrical credit with Ed. So I guess we don't really know who wrote which parts.

Theoretically I agree, but "Purple" is at least an evocative word with some nuance. "Lightning Bolt" is just a ...thing. Runners up might have been Race Car or Comfortable Chair.

Comfortable Chair would have been really good, actually.

I actually heard an interview with Echols where he said what lyrics Ed took from his letter to put in the song. Can't remember now what they were though :|

So basically my post is worthless.
