Topic: people don't get it

people don't get it

they don't get who i am

they don't see what's before them

they couldn't give a damn

there's a whole world out there

and beyond that the stars

are there aliens here now

driving our cars?


people don't get it

don't know if they should

don't know if they'd get it

even if they could

there's a line on the floor

that they wont step across

and they still don't get it

well, my dear....that's their loss

Re: people don't get it

Wow ... amazing description of most humans, with their head-in-the-sand mindset. I think most artists (music, painting, film, sculpture, etc.) do get it and need to express their thoughts through creative sources, to keep from going nuts with despair. Nicely done, Phill.

Re: people don't get it

Tails, what Phill is trying to say, is that he's really an alien, but he can't just come right out and say it because people wouldn't understand.

smile  Seriously, YEP - you're right Phill... and even those that DO get it... sometimes DON'T.  I could see this turned into a song some day.

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.
