Name: Curious, I Know
Duration: P00H03M53S
Description: This was built from the bottom up in practice; Drew had been listening to a lot of Massive Attack in that timeframe and wanted to see if we could do something a bit more rhythmic. We failed, completely, at coming anywhere close to Massive Attack, but out of the debris came this pretty cool song. Drew likes that he got to express his inner Hooky somewhat on the bass.

lyrics

Something curious, I know
Stretching out, far and wide
Drifting off from this time and place
Thinking out loud, do you mind

Gotta be somewhere right now
Gotta be somewhere right now
Know what I mean, can't say it right
Gotta be somewhere right now

I'll fill you in on what's what
While filling in all the gaps in my mind
Can't say much more, words won't flow
Lost in the shuffle but I'm doing fine

Gotta be somewhere right now
Gotta be somewhere right now
Know what I mean, can't say it right
Gotta be somewhere right now

Gotta be somewhere right now
Gotta be somewhere right now
I know what it means, can't say it right
Gotta be somewhere right now
