about

This is the second single from Tomás' upcoming album, DEEP BLUE, being released on 03 November 2023.

It was inspired by my friend and songwriter Colin McDuff, from our songwriting troupe, Drunks In A Midnight Choir, setting a song-writing task.

He asked us to look at his friend Anne Campbell's photography website (annecampbell.photography) and see if we could get inspiration from it. You'll be able to see quite quickly the photo and quote that inspired 'Out Of Sight'.

lyrics

OUT OF SIGHT

You see the flashes go off, lights around her so bright
But you knows she wants most things kept away out of sight
I’m still running in the shadows, though I’m moving from the night
Trying to keep all the darker things far away out of sight

A moment in time
Is like shining a light
You illuminate one truth
Leave the rest out of sight

A cavalcade of clowns saying it’s all going fine
While shadows in the darkness keep the truth out of sight
Truth is the one thing that can make fools of us all
What they want us to see here, what they keep out of sight

A moment in time
Is like shining a light
You illuminate one truth
Leave the rest out of sight

Truth is the one thing that can make fools of us all
What they want us to see here, what they keep out of sight
What I want you to see here, what I keep out of sight

A moment in time
Is like shining a light
You illuminate one truth
Leave the rest out of sight
