Radiation - Cathedral Wall

Introduction: During a bout of insomnia, Steve Hogarth would apparently visit a nearby cathedral. Somehow, he found the building comforting, and was able to sleep there. The following extract is from the Marillion press release for Radiation:

"It was all starting to get too much for me, and at one point I couldn't even sleep, that's where Cathedral Wall came from. It got so bad one night [that] I took myself to this place in my head and I was laying down on some soil with my head resting against this cathedral wall, looking up at the night sky. For the first time in a long time I was able to sleep and after that I would take myself there every night to sleep."
