Jon said "the entire lyric in Beautiful Drug or Brothers In Arms was tweaked... for me to be satisfied."
He was specific about Beautiful Drug:
"It had a completely different verse."
"as the record took shape between March and June with the re-recording and the additional songs I rewrote the lyrics and I thought that it would be much more fitting of the rest of the material on the record, if they were all topical, and so in this moment in time while we are in fact looking for a vaccine, my substitution was love and I thought in that lyric, that was just one little page in this big book called 2020, but the lyric then was more specific and it's still rocked, so that's what happened but that song was finished, done..., ready for release and then I pulled it back and we rewrote it."
