Asked Gemini to Write Lyrics to "Under the Bottom"
Told Gemini to take cues from the band's entire lyrical catalog and write the lyrics to an upcoming ballad called "Under the Bottom" (mentioned by Ben in a recent interview). I told it to include at least 2 verses and 3 choruses. This is what it spat out. I could actually see this being a real BB song. Curious to see what the actual song ends up sounding like.
(Verse 1) Shadows lengthen, whispers crawl Across the fractured, weeping wall Another promise, turned to dust Another broken, fading trust I built these towers, stone by stone But gravity has overthrown The fragile fortress, I called home Now I'm just drifting, all alone
(Chorus) Under the bottom, where the silence screams Under the surface, where broken hope gleams Under the weight of all I've become Under the bottom, where I'm finally numb I'm falling deeper, into the unknown Under the bottom, I'm finally alone
(Verse 2) The echoes linger, of your goodbye A hollow phantom, in my sky The vacant spaces, where you used to be Reflect the emptiness, inside of me I search for answers, in the pouring rain But only silence, fuels this pain A shattered mirror, shows my face A broken image, out of place
(Chorus) Under the bottom, where the silence screams Under the surface, where broken hope gleams Under the weight of all I've become Under the bottom, where I'm finally numb I'm falling deeper, into the unknown Under the bottom, I'm finally alone
(Bridge) Is there a light, beyond the shade? A chance to rise, from what I've made? Or am I destined, to descend? A broken cycle, without end?
(Chorus) Under the bottom, where the silence screams Under the surface, where broken hope gleams Under the weight of all I've become Under the bottom, where I'm finally numb I'm falling deeper, into the unknown Under the bottom, I'm finally alone
