Weekly Goal

Use the S-1 again - but synced via MIDI. Also collab with a friend.

My friend Tom Lake wrote lyrics and performed vocals on this one. He also contributed some backup synths to this. He stuck with the "Dark Fantasy" theme all my songs have had and did a cool interpretation with a child wanting a power that their mother has. I think he did a killer job.

The S-1 is using a "Numan Lead 1980" patch which is just chefs kiss.

LYRICS

Brother, let me take this
Trust me its true
I have been transformed, yes
In a way that Mother knew.

One day she let me wear this
And my skin, it shimmered blue
Ever since then we both knew it
I was not one person but two

Mother, can I hold your necklace?
It hums when you sing
Mother, Can I hold your necklace?
The same stone as your ring
I need a power that is breathless
I need to know it is me
Maybe if I wear your necklace
I could fight like you sing

Sister let us enter together
Like we never could
Under the same tent (during) dinner
Whispering secrets 'til
It is time for dancing
Can you see me here now?
Take my hand, lets wander
The sunset setting us down

What is it to know?
Take it in both hands and wait for it to grow

This is real pretty, but I'm also curious as to the backstory of the lyrics.
