Cabin Fever

about

Potentially a touch late to the table, but then aren't we all on occasion? Here's a little lockdown song for you. I feel there's a little something for almost everybody (if not everybody) in this song. Make of it what you will...

This song was recorded remotely in lockdown.

lyrics

I'm taking the knife away
You've forfeited every right to play
And even the funnier things you say
Are making this hard to appreciate

Turning it all around
Be wary of totally breaking down
You paint on the smile, you turn on the charm and you sing

Is it just cabin fever
Or are we paving the new escape?
There's nothing to see here
I promise you
Are we true believers
Or are we faking a brand new day?
Really nothing to see here
I tell you it's better to look away
Better to walk away

Now you're looking back to see
An already different type of me
And even the subtleties of degree
Are letting me down at the apogee

Turning it all around
Be wary of totally breaking down
You paint on that smile, you turn on the charm and you sing

Is it just cabin fever
Or are we paving the new escape?
There's nothing to see here
I promise you
Are we true believers
Or are we faking a brand new day?
Really nothing to see here
I tell you it's better to look away
Better to walk away

Working, I'm working
I'm trying to work and I'm
Working the knots and they're
tangled and tangling
Take all my thoughts and I'll put them
in bags and I'll
Paint on that smile and
I'll give them the charm and I'll sing...
How I'll sing!

Is it just cabin fever
Or are we paving the new escape?
Nothing to see here
I promise you
Are we true believers
Or are we faking a brand new day?
Really nothing to see here
I tell you it's better to look away
Better to walk away
Better to walk away
