i feel like we're running in spirals
feel like we're drowning in silence
feel like we're running in spirals
and i feel like its starting to surface
meanwhile discovering your purpose
feel like we're running in spirals
la la la la la la la
Did the first picture.
Trying out some Surge (https://surge-synthesizer.github.io/) presets for the first time! Interesting sounds.
under the skyline lies a forest of lights and an ecosystem of humans wanting to eat food like all the time they are so hungry
Half Ambient, Half Techno, Half Experimental. Went for a more drone feel. I don't know, the images were almost futuristic. Have fun!
Stepping on the pad, ready to go.
I went through four different ideas before finally giving up and losing it all.
You want to ask him questions about many things. He avoids you. You can tell where he is, and where he goes, you can even get him to sit down and talk to you. But he doesn't have any answers. He wants to be the hero, he wants to travel the path to achieve glory, but he can't, for he also has questions, and no answers.
Sometimes you gotta get out to go in
Some house
i started wayyyy latelike
but i broke out ye olde schecter 7-string noisemaker for funsies
My first song entirely done on an iPad! I had fun learning this Compo! Enjoy!
[verse]
In the rain we go huddle beneath, but come out
in the sunlight, to find the world is dry
The tunnel's a journey we stumble within
'Til we're outside, and then we wonder why
Can tell my up from my down, directions are mixed
in confusion. Can someone help me out?
Am I at the beginning, or am I right at
the conclusion? And what's it all about?
[chorus]
There it goes again, point to point
In this crazy passageway, there's no other way
When I make it out, go right in again
Will this passageway end?
[verse]
With a curve at top, and the pavement below
I am flummoxed, at where this path will stop
See what looks like a dot, it may just be the light
At the tunnel, but should I travel now?
Have you ever felt like you once did something great and then could never do great things that'll match that one accomplishment?
the spiral thing reminded me of the thing from mother + this song has been stuck in my head literally all week omfg
