Not To Lyrics

A tiny facet, a twisted image of what might be me
A risk I've taken, a line that's drawn between the A and B
Although it seems a long time since we've all been here
We can't return, we can't stand still

Da-da-da-da da-da-da-da
There is no link
Da-da-da-da da-da-da-da
Not thought not breath

In peopled spaces, we shrink our lives as we make our dreams
Pretending action, reporting lives that are out of reach
Although it's been a long time, I've never been here
I have no wish to return and I'm not standing still

Da-da-da-da da-da-da-da
Under water over ground
Da-da-da-da da-da-da-da
No width no breadth

Cover art for Not To lyrics by Colin Newman

Sounds like Colin's observation on the movement of his life and those around him. This is one of my personal favorites of his.

My Interpretation

Enjoy my mixtape with your girlfriend/wife, Cecil. Life is too short and too beautiful to listen to such depressing tracks :D
