[Verse 1]
As I sit here with this urgency
And nobody to the side of me
All quiet and alone
Needing answers of the unknown
Flitting between the real and aloof

Sketched out and oh so confused

Winding it round, keeping me so warm
Impatiently overload

Flitting between the plead and the truth
At times I'm wondering what's the use?
So I ease out a righteous pursuit
Just keep calling
Just keep calling
[Chorus]
Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete
Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete
Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete
Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete

When speaking to M Magazine, Andreya said:
It’s just a metaphor for things coming from nowhere. I wrote it at a time when I was really frustrated with how things were going. The meaning of the song is if you just leave it alone, put it down, it’ll happen.
