Skirmish: Zoo (@atornberg)Liner Notes
Lyrics
I've got that feeling again Like I'm being watched Can't shake it off I feel like a prop
Oh, I think we're in a zoo Could be simulated Could be real life too Watched by beings In a higher dimension For reasons beyond Comprehension
My therapist says I'm just being paranoid But that's exactly what she'd say If she was a humanoid
Oh, I think we're in a zoo Could be simulated Could be real life too Watched by beings In a higher dimension For reasons beyond Comprehension
Keepers of the zoo I beg of you Please review This world you grew We're tired We're hurting We're in the middle of a coup Oh god, is he one of you?

Love the tongue in cheek here. The whole UFO and stimulation thing is something I've been wondering about as well.

The vocal melody works so well with this lyrical content! Incredibly well-written. I love this. 💯

Thought-Provoking. Do you want the blue pill or the red....excuse me, the blue kibble or the red kibble? I love sci-fi about simulated reality. Nice vocals and piano work, and so impressive in skirmish standard time.

I like the therapist line in particular. I think it's hard not to imagine someone watching us destroy ourselves with wonder and astonishment.

Fantastic little piece. It seems we're all going for the politics angle this skirmish, eh?

That's a great political twist at the end. "We're tired/We're hurting", so simple and yet gets to the heart of this difficult time so directly. A terrific skirmish, so heartfelt!
