Cavedwellers-I Don't Want an Answer 2 That
words and music by Escandon/Phillips

Would you say to me, hypothetically,
That you'd stay with me until the end?
Would you not not insist, like an optimist,
that you'll never fail to be a friend

Isn't it insane that i return again and again

I don't know what to say, I don't know what to do
you just pulled a switcheroo
I might wonder what it is I lack
but i don't want an answer to that

I don't know what to say, I don't know what to do
you just pulled a switcheroo
I might wonder what it is I lack
but i don't want an answer to that

well, in all honesty, it's better not to speak
-words that make no difference anyway
we are well aware, when the clouds are clear,
I’ll be here no matter what you say

Isn't it insane that i return again and again

I don't know what to say, I don't know what to do
you just pulled a switcheroo
I might wonder what it is I lack
but i don't want an answer to that

I put it on its head, I pulled a switcheroo
to find out what i mean to you
If I let you go, will you attack?
Well, I don't want an answer to that

Isn't it insane that i return again and again

i can't tell if you're happy, i can't tell if you're blue
another flicking switcheroo
how many times have i lost track?
oh, i don't want an answer to that

This skin I need to shed, and pull a switcheroo
cos I don't even know what's true
I might wonder what it is I lack
but I don't want an answer to that

Nice flute intro. This is weird cos it's very well put together and I like the directions the song goes in, but none of the melodies or lyrics really strike a chord with me. The titles (both of the song and old Songfight titles) seem to stick out like sore thumbs - all of the other lyrics pass me by without grabbing my attention. I was kind of worried that it was a bit too long but I don't mind that so much. Good effort.

You've got a great 70s prog-rock vibe going on. I love the flute and the organ. I'm less crazy about the lyrics here, but nobody's perfect (and I probably shouldn't be throwing stones from a glass house anyway… heh). The chorus has one of those misplaced emphases that happen to be one of my biggest musical pet peeves: you sang "RE-turn."
