Spooky 70's undead Go Go Dancer inspired song

Necromancing

rainbowdeepdreams

This one was fun to write. It started with the guitar part for the chorus. I loved the slightly dissonant chords on "rainbow" leading into the measure. Towards the end, I modulate up a half step while returning to the original key during the "rainbow" lead-in for the chorus - it makes for some extra spice that the guitar can solo over!

LYRICS:
I think that I can finally see where you came from
Refract then collect the total spectrum that you're made of
Colors bleed out, a useful read out
I see through that rainbow guise
(I see through your rainbow guise)

So now with care, avoid the smudging of those layers
But am I unaware to try to fit a hex onto you
I think that I can see through your rainbow guise

Littering

You eat the cost of all of this thinking
Bringing not one single thought
To appreciate in the analog
Your profit margins ever shrinking
Can you bear another loss?
Something’s always what it’s not

Wring your hands make your wild demands
There’s no getting out of this without a fight
Conjure up some kind of summer love
Start littering the streets with other lives 

Commoditize the vibes into trinkets
Thread the wire through the holes
For when your memory gets undependable
Let nothing ever actually sink in 
Volunteer for the patrol
Keep the border good and closed

Give an inch check the mileage 
There’s no getting out of this without a fight
Weigh the risks, know the negatives
Start littering the streets with other lives

It’s awful maddening when nothing’s really happening
When you’re waiting around for everything to rust
But just imagine it, the crashing and collapsing
In the moment when it’s finally too much

You eat the cost of all this thinking
Bringing not one single thought

You commandeer or you disappear 
There’s no getting out of this without a fight
If you won’t kill there’s someone who will
And for all you know they’re squinting down their sights
Panning slow between your children and your wife
You can take it or don’t, but my advice?
Start littering the streets with other lives


Littering

In the world 
Where I’m actually the girl 
That I saw with her dog
And a sleeveless Red Hot Chili Peppers t-shirt on 
Am I still wearing through my socks?
Or less uneven in my walk?
Less illegal in my thoughts?
Are all the evils in a box?
And all the paradoxes solved once and for all?									
Am I living to the limit am I finding that I’m loving it a lot?

Live a stint
As the good samaritan 
With the nice thoughts in the fonts
Or the blue striped black flag waving there on the front lawn
When I think of what I want
Is it something that I’ve got?
Is it other people’s loss?
Is there a way to turn it off?

Each day a blur discern it from the last 
When it’s time again for taking out the trash

Habits hard to get into 
Nevermind to continue
Good behavior don’t always sway the judge

Spend some time
Fuckin feral with the guys
Leaving pain in our wake
Seeing just how many pieces people break in when they break
Grant myself a little grace
For lessons learned a little late
A couple meaningful mistakes
Bend the spiral til it’s straight

Then of course
We find our calling as a corpse
All told it’s pretty dope
It’s finally fine to just sit around and decompose

Light the candles, strap the sandals, tie the robes
Considering a couple different cults 

Habits hard to get into 
Nevermind to continue
Good behavior don’t always sway the judge
Or haven’t you heard the good news?
It isn’t even about you
Sleep sound in knowing that the whole things fucked
There’s nothing you could have done
