The Last File

in #dsound7 years ago (edited)


This is from "The Ancient Files" https://theturtleproject1.bandcamp.com/album/the-ancient-files

It’s a concept EP set way in the future, Earth has become nothing but a fire ball in the solar system and other beings out there are looking for answers, as to what happened.
They find a memory card floating around in space, which might just hold some of those answers, so they set about trying to decipher them.
These are now, ancient files, recorded by a man on April 23rd 2117 who hoped that, someday, somebody would find them. It was his desperate attempt to explain what was happening amongst the chaos, time was running out, but he had to try something.

LYRICS
The people turn to the ones that they love
And cherish every second
I heard a voice crying out for forgiveness
As their soul was beckoned
I ran through the streets searching for home
I should have known the way but my mind was gone
And my body was weakened
I found a quiet corner to sit and listen to that ominous humming
Of the land vibrating, clearly stating that something
Was coming

I have to try and leave something behind
With the hope that someday somebody will find
This desperate explanation behind
The extinction of mankind
I don't hold out much hope for these files
Ever surviving but I have to try
There's so much more I gotta tell ya but I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time

Drop the mic, drop the mic
Does it really matter ?
What did you tell them ?
Not enough, not nearly enough
Hand over the files
Shush, listen

What the fuck ?

It was just a dream
Maybe people would pull together
If they'd seen what I've seen
Was it really just a dream ?
Come on people pull together
You'd know what I mean
If you'd seen what I've seen
Was it really just a dream ?
Just a dream
Just a dream

No

Fools

More about The Turtle Project:

The Turtle Project started out as exactly that, a project, a songwriting project that was born from years of being a musician in many bands, doing countless gigs, naturally gathering experience and inspiration until, one day, I stumbled upon the fact that I could actually put those experiences and many others into words. The composing aspect grew from that into what it is today ...

My way of life .
