Evening Work: Niagara (3.8M mp3)
This is a new C3 song being built on an excellent solo guitar track from bandmate, Ivan Lee. It’s, of course, still a work in progress (Paul’s bass line is still under development) but I hope to add this to our live set within the month.
Niagara
I was a drop of niagara falls
a mouse among wild animals
you were a lion
I was a slow soft snail
you were a pit bull
I was your wagging tail
you were Teen Spirit
I was a system sound
you were the circus
I was a dancing clown
I was a photon inside your sun
a grain of glycerin inside your gun
pulling the trigger
wait for the film to start
sound growing bigger
a murmur inside my heart
set this in motion
cut to the seven sins
cue the explosion
bring in the violins
dangling carrots
three million reasons why
money inherits
weaknesses amplify
tell me what's missing
if cash cannot fill the hole
if at the beginning
somebody moves the goal
the team was right but the timing wrong
turned moving up into moving on
now we’re all characters in a song
the punch is short but the line is long
