Woh! I had to look it up:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spillway#Bell-mouth_spillways and I can totally imagine paddling rowing kicking-stroking, tacking, trying-to-start-the-outboard, as that lip sucks at my feet, all stoking the nightmare..
How'd the song turn out?
I'll do a Youtube tomorrow. Right now it's 11pm at night so...
Lyrics:
High up on the mountain range
The grey-green expanse looms and yawns
She seems to call to me
She invites me down to the reservoir
And she says welcome down into my core
Hear my lullaby, be troubled no more
Hush my dear, you know I understand you
Sleep softly in the deep cold black of my womb
Wild foaming water rushes in
Down in the bell mouth, soft white noise beckons me to sleep
Come to me, she says, give in to this
Follow me down into the deep
And she says welcome down into my core
Hear my lullaby, be troubled no more
Hush my dear, you know I understand you
Sleep softly in the deep cold black of my womb
Song is basically about the creepy sense of vertinope (like vertigo with added nope) when something is horrifying but you can't resist looking at it lol
