Liner Notes

EP: Game On (My very goofy silly video game related EP)
Ok. I'll explain this one. I did a Let's Play series on my Youtube channel of the game Stair Quest. It's a little indie game in the style of old Sierra adventure games. What you've got to do is just climb up all the stairs.

Given the graphics, the theme, and just the nostalgia this game makes me feel... I'm feeling like an 80s synthwave dance pop kind of song.

DEMO COMING: I'm not in a position to record vocals right now.

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Two brave souls setting out to conquer heaven
And even though I'm not the only one, I must do this alone
Let history remember the names of Princess Ingrid and Sir Devon
Let the tales of our quest be known
For the sake of our kingdom, for the sake of our world
I'm ready for the truth of our time to be unfurled

(Chorus)
I'm leaving it all behind
I've got my goal in sight
Got to keep a clear mind
As I climb up another flight
On and on, and on and on
I won't quit until I've won
On and on, and on and on
I won't rest until I've completed my quest

(Verse 2)
I'm slipping, I'm falling, I'm trying to stay on the path
Facing this mountain's unending wrath
Stepping over cats with no clue why
Outrunning this yeti because I don't have a pie
My body aches, my muscles scream for relief
Pushed forward only by my steadfast belief

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Time and space unravels before me
The orb of stars now stands within my reach
I extend my hand to claim my prize
But the hills echo with my cries
As the orb returns to the place this journey began
I must return along the path I ran
OoooooOOOOooohhhhhhh
Fuck my life

(Chorus)

(Outro)
Life is given meaning through stairs
