Well...this nearly killed me
Wrong key for my increasingly tired voice, no inspiration, apart from the shameful episode I decided to write about, and for a variety of reasons I've probably mentioned before, I really wasn't at the races for this one at all...but I said I'd do something and all of the other guys managed to get their shit together, so I felt I had to do something. I won't post it in "finished songs" as I haven't been reviewing, and it's anything but my finest moment, but here it is anyway. I didn't even bother picking up a guitar.
I was wrestling with a middle 8 and chorus but I just thought "what's the point" ?
I think I'm done here, this time...ta for everyone for inspiring me to keep at it. I will likely try and catch up on Zoom now and then.
I'll try and review the other entrants before I toddle off...thanks to Paul for making such a great effort to inject some life into the forum.

Your quest to escape
The scene of the crime
Clearly collectively
Losing your mind
Lighting it up
For the very first time
Destroying
Your own paradigm
You don’t come in peace
You come to deprave
You soil your own nest
Just to get what you crave
So it’s little surprise
That you reach for the stars
In search
Of new abattoirs
You see self-destruction
And seek to go faster
You turn to the dark side
And make it your master
There you boldly go
Embracing disaster
Perdition
Per ardua, ad Astra
It's about the time that the USA decided to detonate a 1.4 megaton atomic bomb in space. As you do. You could look it up, if you haven't already heard about it...it's not as though it was newsworthy or particularly interesting, after all. It was back in 1962 and although it was mentioned at the time, they later probably just decided to pretend it never happened...like an awful lot of other disgusting shit that goes on. It's the sort of thing that makes me wonder if I am actually on the same planet as these monsters.
