about

A song about surveillance - obsessive stalking of an individual, governments monitoring our actions and corporate information gathering; ‘watching you, watching me…’

lyrics

No secret, no surprise
All those bright lights hurt your eyes
To watch us climb, to watch us fall
Obsession, sees it all, sees it all

(chorus)
Watching you, watching me
Somebody’s there but you’d never know
Watching you, watching me
Somebody’s there but you’d never know
Ah, you’d never know
Obsession…

On the move, on the make
Steal the icing, scrap the cake
Stop the clock, freeze the frame
Obsession knows your name

(chorus)
Watching you, watching me
Somebody’s there but you’d never know
Watching you, watching me
Somebody’s there but you’d never know
Ah, you’d never know
Obsession…

All around you, all around you
Dark tonight
Keep your secrets, keep your secrets
Out of sight

Play your game, play your game
And run your race
Obsession - knows your face…

No secret, no surprise
All those bright lights hurt your eyes
To watch us climb, to watch us fall
Obsession, sees it all, sees it all

Watching you, watching me
Somebody’s there but you’d never know
Watching you, watching me
Somebody’s there but you’d never know
Ah, you’d never know
Obsession…
Obsession…
Obsession…
