Illustration is a charming melancholy song delving into fear, anxiety and not being ready for changes. It explores coping mechanisms and escapism and draws you into a whole new world.
Illustration
I pictured drawing
Creating a little world
We'd go explore in
Ride on the backs of these flying guitars
And dance on piano paths
Just free flowing oh how easy it is to forget here
And I imagine
This place I built is safe away
From the maddening crowds
Growing ever hungry for more of what you have
And its turning them into a greed inflicted race that would feed on your own flesh
How easy it is to forget here
Am I safe here
In my own little world
Are we free dear
To hide away from the dirt they spread
Buried deep in their fingertips
And I'd like to
Live as an illustration
Oh I'd like to
Live as an illustration
I see it clearly
You and me sailing around through all the watery seams
The lapping of the waves upon a proud bow
One that we earnt somehow in this fictious day dream
Don't want to wake up now
I pinch myself each day
Wondering if this sphere we're hiding in will fade away
Please don't burst this bubble no not just yet
I want to savour it
Don't wanna wake up from this daydream
Don't make me yet
And am I safe here
In my own little world
And are we free dear
To hide away from the dirt they spread
Buried deep in their fingertips
And I'd like to
Live as an illustration
Oh and I'd like to
Live as an illustration
And am I safe here
In my own little world
And are we free dear
To hide away from the dirt they spread
Buried deep in their fingertips
And I'd like to
Live as an illustration
Oh and I'd like to
Live as an illustration
Oh and I'd like to
Live as an illustration
