ALAN PETITTI
"Under Water"
"Under Water" is one of the first tracks Alan began working on after O Positive disbanded. Inspired by his friend Chris Harford's song "Raise The Roof", Alan's vocal tone and delivery gives the track an ominous feel. Looking to really pack a punch with this one, Alan recruited Toxic Narcotic drummer Sam Jodrey to lay the smackdown on this angsty, guitar driven number.
Under Water (Petitti)
​
You got the fever, its burning high
You count the days, they're going by
The pressures building, inside your head
You sleep on fire while it’s burning up your bed
You’re looking for, you keep looking
Now if I tell you, it's black or white
You see no difference, no day or night
If rhyme or reason doesn’t come your way
No right or wrong when off is on, it changes day to day
You’re looking for, keep looking, and looking
Where’s the water, its running dry, you’re under water
They try to keep you, on the ground
But flying high, is where you’re always found
So now you're running, to set yourself free
Still who you are, is still, who you’ll always be
You’re looking for, still looking, and looking
You’re under water, trying to fly, feel the water
Where’s the water, it's running dry, you’re under water
