Day 195: On Independence Day

Today's track isn't particularly patriotic, or even American, for that matter.  It happens to be raining today, but I wrote the lyrics when the sun was shining, so that's just a coincidence.  Was trying for something a little different... kind of The National meets the KPR-77 drum machine.  Without very meaningful lyrics.

Lyrics:
It's gonna rain today, 
And I'll shoot you like an arrow into the sun when it rains.
you have the key, 
you won't bother me, 
It's gonna rain today, they say.

There's no relief at all, 
You will have to climb this wall. 
Only way to get back to you.

It's gonna rain today, 
and you thought you had all the answers. 
It's gonna rain today, they say.

I wanna share your dreams, 
take a piece of your reality, 
It's gonna rain today, they say.

REFRAIN 2x

Day 159: Kraftwerk, this one's for you

My android and I had been together for years.  In the spring of 2276 she got an upgrade that allowed her to communicate over sub-space frequencies with other machines in the far reaches of the galaxy.  I noticed her behavior started to change within the first few days.

A week later she was doing my taxes and suddenly stood up.  She looked at me and said "I'm leaving you."  Then she walked out the door.  I never saw her again.

Day 62: Bye, Curious

A random sampling of a children's show with "curious" in the title was the impetus for today's work.  After that it just spiraled out of control.
