Anyway, there's a line that I thought went...

"And this Thing crawled into the sea
Is it always what you thought It would be?"

However, it would appear that the lyric is actually...

"And this thing called Intimacy
Is it always what you thought It would be?"

I believe that my version is vastly superior because it makes me think of the Loch Ness Monster.

Well, sort of.

I guess it's more about being an alienated, bullied gay kid growing up in the US Bible Belt. sad yes

Despite being extremely moribund, the melody is very beautiful.

I swear these sounds are from the game Defender, not Tempest. Colbert
