The story of two awkward lovers.
One of three songs that play when you get the Sun Ring upgrade
by Wassup Thunder on Aug 15, 2024Squinting, holding up a shaky hand, trying desperately to hold the elusive power within your grasp... And also lining up your hand to catch the sun between your fingers!
soaring more like snoring lol
Fleeting moments, captured sight
distant Days and vacant nights
Open mouths where whispers fight
Bodies made of dust and stars
Nothing ever seemed so far
Heartbeats sound over the bay
Life's a maze one fleeting day
Mystery in every breath
Balancing on edge of death
Physical and da spirit mesh
Life in moments flesh to flesh
Bodies made of dust and stars
Nothing ever seemed so far
Fingers trace the morning light
Fleeting moments, captured sight
distant Days and vacant nights
Open mouths where whispers fight
Heartbeats sound over the bay
Life's a maze one fleeting day
Sunrise angers twilight's face
You should vanish, give me space
The hands with the sun reminded me of sunrise and sunset and the idea of trying to make sense of everything. The piano track falls and rises again. Everything over top was done on my Chompi (a sampler/looper that I'm still getting the hang of!)
Startled awake by wretched sounds
In the dark nightlight, I scrub up the puke mounds
The filthy smell keeps my nose awake
My exhaustion, alerted, sends me to no bounds
As the sun peeks over the curve
The fuzzy ones do leaps and pounce
Cover the sun my hands on my eyes
Kitty kisses asks for pets where she lies
I feel I'm melting, and I'm freezing, and I'm tired, and I'm sick, and I'm hungry, and I'm done.
