Dragging Me
Sam Raimi Called
Started: 2/23 Finished: 2/23
Lyrics/Music/Arrangement: Darby
Origin: Music started as a daily invention. First stanza of the first verse came from the random lyrics notebook. Inspired by the challenges of greater-than-the-speed-of-light interstellar space travel and the decisions one has to make about which snacks to take along for the ride. Or maybe it's political. Or maybe both.
(Chorus)
There's somethin
that is coming
There's something
Draggin me inside me
There's somethin
that is coming
There's somethin
That is draggin me
There's somethin
that is coming
there's somethin
Draggin me inside me
(Verse 1)
Hold tight for a moment
Try to let the light in
Every day we run away
We are closer to the end
(there's somethin draggin' me)
Gotta hold back the tide
In the moment we catch it
It slips past our grip
And just comes rushing in
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
Gotta cut out the cancer
Be the change that you want
Whole thing is one big joke
And that joke is on us
(there's somethin draggin' me)
Wish I could laugh away
All the madness and pain
It’s a drag to be sober
When you’re headed to the gate
(Chorus)
(Horn Bridge)
(Chorus)
