Made for The Ultimate Hum: Exploration round 3.

Had so much fun working on this song with such talented people. Because of the magnitude of the project, this was also very stressing lol, but seeing the final result, it was completely worth it.

Lyrics:

Oooooh, the stars are out there, they shine bright and blue

And they remind me so much of you

I can't take you out of my head

Oooooh, we were not alone in this galaxy

But you didn't like that reality

We were meant to be together

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I gotta shoot 'em up, I must destroy these memories

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I want to forget you

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I gotta shoot 'em up, get them out of my head

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I want to forget

Oooooh, the stars are out there, they shine bright and blue

And they remind me so much of you

I can't take you out of my head

Oooooh, you're on my mind each time I close my eyes

I can't stop thinking of what could have been

if we had been together

Together (8x)

That’s it I’m finished

These memories are diminished

I’m feeling I’ve hit my limit and

there’s no way that you gon’ get it now

I gave my all for you

I told you I would fall for you

Made a plan to give you everything

And then I saw it through

But it all changed and started to rearrange

You got up inside my brain and outsmarted to bring me pain and then

I felt infected, dissected and disrespected

You told me that you’d be there til the end then you ejected

And now I’m moving, but memories are consuming me

Can’t recognize the newer me

I ask “What did you do to me?”

Who is this person? it worsens.

Now I can feel it strangle

It’s time to lock and load,

And I’ve got to find another angle

I’m busting back and attack. I am exact

I’m on track to bring it back, when I’m charging into the black, Let’s go

This isn’t who I am

I feel the clutches loosen up

You didn’t think I’d fight back this time

It’s time to Shoot em up

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I gotta shoot 'em up, I must destroy these memories

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I want to forget you

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I gotta shoot 'em up, get them out of my head

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I want to forget

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I gotta shoot 'em up, I must destroy these memories

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I want to forget you

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I gotta shoot 'em up, get them out of my head

Shoot 'em up, shoot 'em up

I want to forget

Game Over
