Time Marches On
Skirmish: Time Marches On (@troubadette)Liner Notes
Lyrics
There’s sixty minutes in an hour But when they’re gone they’re gone
A bud becomes a withered flower Because time marches on
And every year the seasons pass The beating of the drum
The reason that all flesh is grass Cannot be overcome
There’s such a thing as entropy A universe disordered
And yet it’s hard to disagree The past can’t be reordered
Time’s winged chariot drawing near The changing of the state
The mills of God grind slow I fear They never change their rate
And since the start of God’s great plan Transcendent and sublime
There’s nothing we can do which can Reverse the march of time
Comments
I like that you have interpreted the prompt both with the lyrics about time and the musical feel of a march. The lyrics on their own read like a warning, but becomes far more friendly with the music
A convincing statement of the classical view of time. Good functional melody. Good effort for a skirmish.
This is super. It ticks along like time as measured by clocks and it contains some broad views about the nature of time.
I particularly like this line;:
"The reason that all flesh is grass Cannot be overcome"
Great you get a mention of entropy in there too.
Super work, especially for a skirmish!

Sounds fab too
