THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG
(Believe it or not it's actually NOT a love song, it's a song about mind control- written in January 2009 by Aallia Andreadis well actually this one is a funny one coz i wrote the music and lyrics separately i rarely do that- I'm not sure which day i wrote the lyrics probably earlier than that; wrote the backing melody on piano MUCH EARLIER around 2005-6 but hated the lyrics so i had scrapped the song but one day i sat on the piano and wrote this early 2009- after it struck me the melody would sound so much more haunting on plucked string- to be honest i just sat on the piano had NO CLUE what i was going to write about and just chose every word PURELY in relation to the syncopated rhythm of the backing melody- a bizarre songwriting experience but in the end it all felt just right)

Shock me, mock me
Play with my mind
Till you got me
Put me
Under your spell
Coz you know me,
Show me,
Throw me aside
As you blow me away
With one move...

(Chorus)
Fly away, fly me away to the moon...
Blow me away, fly me away oooh

School me, fool me
Toss me around
Till you make me,
Break me
Take me away
As you thrill me
Kill me
I'll slip through your fingers
Like water, my love
I'm gonna run away...

(chorus slightly modified)
fly away, fly me away to the moon
before I run away...
