lyrics

The drawing is him, it's of him, he did the drawing. The drawing, the things, they're him, he's in the drawing, the drawn things are him and in him there is the drawing, it's him, it's not him. Is it him? It's just a drawing.

You can be the tree
You can be the land
You can be a body of water
You can be all these things

You can be the horse
You can be the hay
You can feed the hay to the horse
You can be all these things

You eat the fruit, you become the tree. It's proof that you are here.
You draw the fruit, it's just as good. It's proof that you are here.
You talk about the memory of the fruit that you drew. It's proof that you are here.
The conversation you had helps you become the tree. It's proof that you are here.

You can be the thought
You can be the words
You can be the ink on the paper
You can be all these things

You can be the patient
The corridor
The hospital notes
The documentary subject
You can be all these things

The diagnosis based on the meaning of the drawing. The film in the exhibition. The illustrated case-story. The rubbish. The weird things in storage no-one knows what to do with. The revered oddity. The blanket statement. The treatment. A simple, complicated statement. The nameless anecdote. The daily grind. A drawing, biro on paper.

You can be the tree
You can be the land
You can be a body of water
You can be all these things

You can be the horse
You can be the hay
You can feed the hay to the horse
You can be all these things

You can be all these things
