Entry from Cracks in the Sidewalk in Nur Ein XX.
Must include use of 5/8 meter for at least one significant part of the song
Verse 1
Footsteps
Hammer at the pavement
Testing every seam
Questioning every
reason
long forgotten
give way to
the needle of time
we've outgrown our path
we've outgrown our ways
Chorus
just give this seed a little longer
soon it'll break through, soon it'll show you
what it takes
everyday a little stronger
pushing on through
heralding the new
Verse 2
cracks in the sidewalk
bugs in the system
deficiencies
masquerading as wisdom
old infrastructure
decays in the light
new ones emerge
usurping their right
Chorus
Bridge
we've outgrown our path
we've outgrown our ways
we've outgrown our path
we've outgrown our ways
we've outgrown our path
we've outgrown our ways
Chorus
just give this seed a little longer
soon it'll break through, soon it'll show you
what it takes
everyday a little stronger
pushing on through
heralding the new
they're coming for you
implied poly meters rocks, the 5/4 over 5/8. Love these layers. Lyric and vocals are solid. love the chorus, and vocals shine. I think of all the plants growing out of every crack in San Fransisco. The bridge is key! The Gravel Pit.
