This song has been a journey. I've reuploaded it twice now, first when I learned how to master, then again to fix my messed-up attempt to master the song. It's still "mastered" now (as in, I didn't revert to a previous audio file) but I brought the drums down a little bit and messed with snare velocities while I was under the hood. The waveform isn't one solid bar anymore, so that's a good sign.
Lyrics:
No one heard it
When the siren sounded
We all laughed too loud
When the bomb hit
We’d passed out in fountains
Made our parents proud
Nine-to-fivin'
Through a genocide and
Working overtime
Heart is pounding
Just to keep from drowning
Just to stay alive
Run in circles just to
Please the people that you
Need to keep your life on track
they’re as helpless as you
Though they may be the boot
There’s still a foot up their ass
Where to begin
When you’re born
At the ending
With a life
that’s been spent
In a state
Of transition
When the dust
Settles down
Will we gather
in circles
Wondering
What happens now?
