https://www.wpcthirtythree.com/atum-lyrics

I just noticed that they've published Act I and II (up to Every Morning) lyrics here.

The almost a real song awards go to Avalanche and Night Waves.
In better hands these might have been alright.

Question

I've been skimming through several of these, because out of the songs I heard before giving up, I either couldn't tell what he was singing or it just didn't make any sense to me. Has anyone noted there are a lot of references to old songs/old lyrics in these? I found one in almost every song I clicked on (probably like a third of them?). It's generally just one word that might simply be unintentionally reused, like "rage" or "pistol" or "pennies," but there's one where he's written "starz," which is what got me noticing this. (It's written correctly in other songs.)

Thumbs down

I don't believe that word is a reference to any prior songs. But keep trying!
