Had no idea what to do here. Made something mysterious and then delay lama.
Just monkeys monkeying around. Then some incredibly shitty mixing
Lyrics:
It's been a million years since we last saw the sun
We're still standing here
We're the last ones left
I can't say I know what you are but you're important
So big and imposing, but you are still dormant
and I know that you stand
As a testament to hope and resilience
Remind us all that we can overcome
Anything at all
Remind us all that we cannot be stopped
And we stand tall
It's been a million years since we last saw the sun
We're still standing here
We're the last ones left
I can't say I know what you are but you're important
So big and imposing, but you are... A MONOLITH!!!!
Remind us all that we can overcome
Anything at all
Remind us all that we cannot be stopped
And we stand tall
I ended up combining 2 beats, because the first one was a bit hard to expand, and the 2nd one was a bit too long (And a little bit repetitive). The first one got to the point where it would just be too loud if i kept adding more stuff, so i decided to switch it up and break it down into something more...softer and a little weird. The 2nd one was already getting a little over 3 minutes, when combined so i decided to not add anything else and just keep it. Maybe a little too happy who knows, but i was really working to the limitations of a strange theme. Oh well, hope you like it anyways!
What was that thing called "mixing" again?
are you a beacon of hope?
are you an omen of destruction?
something tells me by the time
I get a clue, I might be fryin
on a cloudless darkened day
I'll watch the sun give the earth away
burning rocks falling from the sky
all the birds forget how to fly
and the lakes and the riversides
run as barren as the oceans dry
and a million glowing moons
hum a solemn sunken mourning tune
we will not forget you
we will not forget you
though we hardly knew you
we will not forget you
Light comes out to say hello
Painting shadow on the sphere
Hanging there in the black
Trailing vapour cast in ice
Looking out at every moment
Every slice of time is smaller
Monolith twirling round
A million meters off the ground
Bringing heat and sound and fury
Bridging gaps between the stars
Monolith twirling round
A million seconds off the ground
Splitting clouds and burning bright
It hits the surface with a crack
Throwing up a cloud of ash
Humming as the world vibrates
Looking out at every moment
Every slice of time is smaller
Monolith twirling round
A million meters underground
Bringing heat and sound and fury
Bridging gaps between the stars
Monolith twirling round
A million seconds in one sound
When I go back I won't be alone
I'll take my friends all home
Looking out at every moment
Every sign of life is smaller
Monolith twirling round
A million meters underground
Bringing heat and sound and fury
Bridging gaps between the stars
Monolith twirling round
A million seconds in one sound
