Oumuamua (UPDATED 3/30 LMAO)

Liner Notes

#electronic #psychedelic #space_pop

I doubt anyone will hear this new version, but I added vocals and other stuff. Talk about last minute... Anyway, it's a song about feeling alienated and disappointed in people's ignorance.

Lyrics

I'm dozing off
stricken by a rogue wave
O Fortuna
Peeking out like a scout
Something's coming my way
Oumuamua

Nascent hope
A telescope
to find it
Oh, medulla
Prescient pains
The serpent's gaze
behind it,
of Medusa

Run away from here
Wipe away your tears
Far away in thought
On a pale blue dot

Citadel
A dried up well
in attrition
Oumuamua
Passes through
and glides away
An apparition
Oh, paranoia

I'm slipping out
through the cracks in space
The tesselation
Pouring out my thoughts
in a vessel of clay
A revelation

Past, present, future
all in lockstep
A great illusion
What passed for common sense
is nonsense
Accursed union

Run away from here
Wipe away your tears
Far away in thought
On a pale blue dot
Run away from here
to a new frontier
On a wave of thought
Help me lose the plot

great soundscape and telescopic lyrics - I confess my ignorance about Oumuamua, but so interesting. just discovered Interstellar too...

I love these lyrics. Exploring the meaning and significance of an event like Oumuamua is a great way to get to some profound places. The synth matches it well. I really like that you got tessellation in there.
