The tenth track off of Painting With is a waltzing commentary on being a bystander, observing a so-called “wretch” and doing nothing about it.
[Verse 1]
Watch it watch you watching wretch
Plugged into a people patch
Watch as bonds that illustrate
Also start to complicate
[Verse 2]
Catches in a net of type
Absence makes the sense go dark
All of the intended dart
None of the extended soul
[Chorus 1]
Getting screwed not much to do
When no one’s watching
No one’s looking
Can you see it
[Verse 3]
Feel a surge and make a steal
No one round to see the deed
Surge so strong it’s tough to tame
Urges lead with none to blame
[Verse 4]
Things go up that must come down
Those so down don’t want to drop
Every one so keen to glow
Bubble up from down below
[Chorus 2]
Wicked moves with none to lose
When no one’s looking
No one’s watching
Can you be it
[Outro]
So
Don’t get caught lost
So
Don’t get caught watching
Don’t get caught lost
Don’t get caught watching
Don’t get caught lost
