Slingshot -- New Lyrics Idea June 28th, 2024

E maj/E7#9 

Gold raining down

Clouds mushroom out

To power our device

We give in to demands

Demonic design

No familiar sight

One mirror feeds the other

At the speed of light

Clenching metal screaming

Densities compounding

Input 30 seconds

It creates 30 years

When you’re strapped in

Every tendon bends

Witness the ghostly hands

Strings will grow between them

Only one will make a round-trip

A lifetime in an instant

Each digit repeating

Cancer’s whispered secrets

Scavenging the lot

Euclidian Phase

Store up all you can

Multiplies in days

Fellow corpses drifting

Frozen in the media 

F sharp ear tinnitus

Skin brittled by space

They open up the gates 

Master claws engage

Squeeze it down to plasma

Concentrated fate

Chorus

E C# E D

E C# D A

Just a little

20 granules more

Through the reservoir

Filling up the core

Just a little

Little bit more

We give our sacrifice

Until they ask for more

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
