about

mixing this song crashed my computer three times. the last time, after hours of tweaking, I was so dejected that I swore the song off entirely. curious, I opened the session after a couple month break and realized that whatever magic I had been trying to work before was unnecessary, the song was already itself... but it almost crashed the damn laptop again. I don't know if the music gods are trying to tell me to knock it off with the over a dozen tracks shit or if I just need more computing power, but either way I present to you a song about death.

lyrics

you know it's really kind of common
it happens to everyone
but you're only gonna get this once
and I can't seem to catch my breath

if you gotta move towards the light
head to the moon
there's darkness right around the bend
and it comes too soon

when you leave just what will you be
is afterlife just philosophy
still, rather confusing
gone's a shape I can't see

if you gotta move towards the light
head to the moon
there's darkness right around the bend
and it comes too soon

we saw nothing
still we pray
there's something coming

if you gotta move towards the light
head to the moon
there's darkness right around the bend
and it comes too soon
