“No Escape!” is a song off of my first solo record called “Bits”. It draws conceptual inspiration from a strange and challenging Atari 2600 game released by Imagic in the early 1980s.<\/p>\n
The song is also the subject of my second video from the record. It is an animated movie in set in the world of classic video games … an 8 bit romance in less than 3 minutes. It will contain elements of action and suspense with gripping, high tension computer generated imagery unlike the world has seen since 1987 (see picture above).<\/p>\n
Oh yeah … the lyrics are as follows:<\/p>\n
\nNo Escape!<\/p>\n
It’s something strange we’re traveling in
\nThis world so dislocated
\nTrapped in our cages shutting us in
\nIt appears there’s no escaping<\/p>\nIf so we’ll do it alone<\/p>\n
Let’s run, let’s break, let’s struggle to win
\nAgainst the long shot complications
\nThe social reflex tying us in
\nIt was never in the calculation
\nWay back when the world went crazy
\nYou lived with your dreams and held them in
\nAnd now when there’s no escape from this
\nJust take my hand listen<\/p>\nIf so we’ll do it alone
\nIf that’s the way in<\/p>\nI have looked it over this time
\nThere’s no surprise
\nThis lock’s untried <\/p>\nWe’re settling into silence again
\nAs the words can’t catch the meaning
\nThis quiet holds an unknown strength for me
\nIt’s tying up once divided
\nIt’s getting hard to discover what’s needed
\nIf look in the middle find it<\/p>\nIf so we’ll do it alone
\nIf that’s the way in<\/p>\nI have looked it over this time
\nThere’s no surprise
\nThis lock’s untried\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“No Escape!” is a song off of my first solo record called “Bits”.
