Echoes

Song Description

Written during the pandemic of 2020, it reflects the never-ending 24 hour a day media onslaught that is modern life. This barrage of misinformation is brought to a head during a pandemic where suddenly, TV/internet/smartphone/tablet connections are overrun with conflicting images and commentary, made worse by long overdue protests over racial injustice. All of which is compounded by a pandemic which many people not only refuse to believe or accept, but willfully ignore the science that could slow and stop it.

Lyrics

echoes, things repeating
beware the usual greeting
look up, watch me gaining
one in a crowd

lowered expectations
i'll pass on salutations
waiting, patient training
i am a cloud

ups and downs and
sideways detections
back and forth and the
need for connection

side to side and
move for deflection
you can't escape in
any direction

heard you, twice the first time
you'll be right back in my line
information coming
what do i know?

power not required
I'm here if you're not wired
spread wide, making contact
i say you go

ups and downs and
sideways detections
back and forth and the
need for connection

side to side and
move for deflection
you can't escape it

ups and downs and
sideways detections
back and forth and the
need for connection

side to side and
move for deflection
you can't escape in any direction

(any direction)
(echoes)
(things repeating)
