I am well aware that usually the beat comes first when an EDM song is produced, and I’m also well aware that I have no idea what I’m doing and I’m wasting my time. But I do enjoy telling a story in verse and I’m letting off a little bit of creative steam. So, there you go. The beat to this, in my fevered imagination, would be EDM and much like “Titanium,” with the title stretched out in the chorus.
Antarctica
Lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
the heat is oppressive
we have our last refuge from the elements
we didn’t listen
we didn’t heed the chorus of doom
now we’re living at the edge of the earth
waiting for the end
[pre-chorus]
the heat is oppressive
it’s messing with our minds
we’re left alone with our thoughts
[chorus]
we’re living on
Antarctica
our last hope
Antarctica
when we finally learn
Antarctica, Antarctica, Antarctica
now nothing can save us from our doom
things are full of gloom
pow goes the gun of despair
how many bullets do we have to spare
[pre-chorus]
the heat is oppressive
it’s messing with our minds
we’re left alone with our thoughts
[chorus]
we’re living on
Antarctica
our last hope
Antarctica
when we finally learn
Antarctica, Antarctica, Antarctica
[bridge]
we’re all in this together
what will we do when the end arrives
and the skies finally fall
we’re living on
Antarctica
our last hope
Antarctica
when we finally learn
Antarctica, Antarctica, Antarctica
