Liner Notes

Paying homage to Dylan Thomas, I've sampled an excerpt from "Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night" and wrote lyrics around the two main lines. Similar to his poetic style, I began with the two lines, then alternated each line at the end of subsequent stanzas. I then recombined the two lines at the end of the song.

My take on the song was to turn it into a beacon of hope within the depths of dystopian despair, a song to remind us all of the light that shines within us. Even when things seem cold and horrible, there's always warmth and a reason to continue fighting #electronic #industrial #cyberpunk #midtempo #motivational

Lyrics

Chorus:
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

In the Chaos of this world, temptation appears
To end the suffering and all one's fears
Welcoming the embrace of Eternal sleep
Leaving behind the One's who weep

Know there's a Beacon shining in your core
To cast away the Shadows forevermore
Don't give in to the City's Blight
Do not go gentle into that good night

Your love touches hearts, you're always giving
A reason to feel, a reason for living
So ignite your passion, take arms, and fight
Rage, rage against the dying of the light

You are not alone, I'm always by your side
A comrade forever whom you can confide
Do not go gentle into that good night
Rage, rage against the dying of the Light

Chorus
