This was a triumph! I'm making a note here Huge success! It's hard to overstate My satisfaction Aperture Science We do what we must Because we can For the good of all of us Except the ones who are dead But there's no sense crying Over every mistake You just keep on trying 'til you run out of cake And the science gets done And you make a neat gun For the people who are Still alive I'm not even angry... I'm being so sincere right now Even though you broke my heart And killed me And tore me to pieces And threw every piece into a fire As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you! Now, these points of data Make a beautiful line And we're out of beta We're releasing on time! So I'm GLaD I got burned! Think of all the things we learned! For the people who are Still alive Go ahead and leave me... I think I'd prefer to stay inside... Maybe you'll find someone else To help you Maybe Black Mesa? That was a joke. Ha Ha. Fat Chance! Anyway this cake is great! It's so delicious and moist! Look at me still talking When there's science to do! When I look out there It makes me glad I'm not you I've experiments to run There is research to be done On the people who are Still alive And you bet your ass I'm still alive You stupid Piece of shit! UH OH! I'm doing science and I'm Still alive I feel fantastic and I'm Still alive While you're dying I'll be Still Alive STILLLL ALLLLIIIIIVVVVEEE (Bleck)

Rolling around at the speed of sound Got places to go Gotta follow my rainbow Can't stick around, have to keep movin' on Guess what lies ahead Only one way to find out Must keep on movin' ahead No time for guessin', follow my plan instead Trusting in what you can't see Take my lead, I'll set you free Follow me, set me free Trust me and we will escape from the city I'll make it through, follow me Follow me, set me free Trust me and we will escape from the city I'll make it through, prove it to you Follow me! Oh, yeah! Danger is lurking around every turn Trust your feelings You've got to live and learn I know with some luck that I'll make it through Got no other options Only one thing to do I don't care what lies ahead No time for guessin', follow my plan instead Find that next stage no matter what that may be Take my lead, I'll set you free Follow me, set me free Trust me and we will escape from the city I'll make it through, follow me Follow me, set me free Trust me and we will escape from the city I'll make it through, prove it to you Follow me! Follow me! I'll make it through, oh, yeah!

about

We had this idea a few years back. Originally it was much grander and had many more tracks including a 8 Minute Medley and a Hades song cover. Unfortunately we have to write a new album but chose the two best children to let live... AND THOSE SONGS WERE STILL ALIVE AND ESCAPE FROM THE CITY!

Enjoy. These are top notch.
