Story Behind The Song

It reflects how I feel about and respond to some peoples ignorance and non-reflection.

Song Description

Sounds simple, but a deep song. Beyond conspiracies. Beyond the x-files. Beyond appearances. Interesting contrast between serious/childish.

Lyrics

DRAWN UP
copyright Richard Rummery 2005
from the ftprints11 album 'unsound'

You can get it all off, you can get it all on
you can break it all out, you can stay until I'm gone
You can look around, you can stay inside
you can play it all out
or you can stay in and hide
You can lock me in, or you can lock me out
you can stay inside, wonder what its about
You can look around or you can take it on faith
... but you don't wanna know

ch:
But I'll keep watching the skies, I'll keep looking for lies
to tell you the truth if it's out there
Keep your magic and wonder, stop being dragged down under
even the proof is in the air.

vii)
You can play me the hits, you can give me the shits
you can look up my name, and you'll find it's not fame
that I'm looking for, or even trying to get
I just wanna be home, but I'm not home yet
I could say all you like I could give you a clue
I could dance what you want, I could do what you do
we could take it together or we could go alone

We can make it together/we can go it alone
...but you don't wanna know

CH:
So I'll keep watching the skies. I'll keep looking for life
to tell you the truth if its out there
So keep your magical wonder, stopped being dragged down under
even the proof is in the air

Mid:
I'm talking to you now, but I haven't got a clue
I could go back and look and I could come tell you
but you could do it yourself, while I just sit here and wait
then you could come tell me, but don't hesitate
We could sit here all night or we could go out and play

CH:
CH:CH:
So I'll keep watching the skies. I'll keep looking for life
to tell you the truth if its out there
So keep your magical wonder, stopped being dragged down under
even the proof is in the air
