She left him for a loveless life
He wanted more than he could carry
They’ll finally be a-movin’
He went up to her lifeless door
Asking what’s this for
Baby you’re not happy, but you’re not sad
Just stay for a while you’ll get your voice back
But she’s gone Brought a bit of laughter
A bit of hope
Said to the weather
Please take me anywhere from my head
It’s filled with clichés
Am I free?
A voice came on the radio
It’s rain today and more tomorrow
So put on your best smiles and chase this storm away
Cause maybe tonight her loveless life
Will put out her light
But if you look close
Is that her laughing, like a maniac
Is it madness?
I want madness
Are you right there, can you taste it?
Please don’t let me fall asleep cause the last drop falls alone, she says
I can stay right here to watch so it doesn’t make the fall alone, she says
I’m free to go but this bittersweet sadness
It is drowning me so Am I free?
I can tell she knew it all along I can see she knew it all along
I can tell she knew it all along I can see she knew it all along
You don’t get sick from just playing in the rain
You don’t get sick from just playing in the rain
Please don’t let me fall asleep cause the last drop falls alone, she says
I can stay right here to watch so it doesn’t make the fall alone
I’ve found
Love
For the first time
For the first time
I’ve been
Loved
For the first time
For the first time
Oh this brilliant dream
Feels like I’m the tallest tree
Sky just in my reach
I’ll finally rest my weary feet
Dip them in a lazy creek
I’m alive, I am born again
I’m on fire, I can run again
I’m in love, I can live again
I’ve come to the edge
Of clarity
Oh this brilliant dream
One that only I can see
Sky it cannot freeze
Time leaves only memory
Now you dream another dream
Oh life, I am lost again
Oh fire, let me run again
Oh love, I am gone again
I’ve come to the edge
Of sanity
I feel
Fear
For the first time
Mmmm
I am water
Free flowing home
Into a summer
I could swim a little longer
Cause you’ve got my heart
Feeling this warm fuzz
I am no longer
A crease on the earth
I am a falcon
Let’s fly a little higher
The wind, oh she calls
We’ve got this warm fuzz
Cause you’ve got my heart
Mmmm
Where are the colours
What is this darkness
My tongue craves the bitters
Cause you’ve left my heart
I am asunder
I am a…
Mmm
Somebody
Enter you
I’d sooner light up my own lungs, than to
Speak
I’ve seen the bottom of bottles
Scoured the ends of my credit cards into
Fine
Steady as she goes
A little nothing never hurt no one
Steady as she goes
You know
I’ve seen a lot of the faraways
I’ve read up on all the subtle ways of
Being clean, clean from pain
But still your candour it permeates into
Me
Am I free?
And so it goes I have fallen
I am certain I am
Game
A non-believer of fairytales
A patron of adventure unsubdued
Steady as she goes
A little laughter never hurt no one
Steady as she goes
I’ve seen a lot of the faraways
I’ve read up on all the subtle ways of
Being clean, clean insane
But still your splendour it permeates into
Me
Am I free?
Steady as we go
Pack your bags and come away with me
Steady as we go
I won’t forget the mayonnaise
Steady as we go
It’s gonna be a hell of a good ride
Steady as we go
Tell me more of your faraways
While I catch all your subtle ways of
Waking what I’ve put away
The morning sun feels kinda nice on me
I’m still alive
Still alive
I’m still alive
Still alive
I’ve got my heart set
I’ve got my heart set on this
I’ve got my heart set on you
Ten years of age, and I’ve got into troubles
Got into situations, but I got out too
The nineties were great, we all played together
Played in the rain, no worries and no rules
I was born a little lucky, born a little loud
Born not so streetwise, I learnt that on my own
I was hungry for life, hungry to grow up
Hungry to change the world and set the sky alight
But at night, when the sky is just a glimmer
My hunger takes a back seat, and it’s time to realign
The world is such a beauty, I can’t see it with my eyes
But I swear it comes a-singin’ a resonating line
Then I’m calm
It goes…
Twenty years later, think I’ve found what I need
People in my life who make me complete
Something feels wrong with this comfort I feel
Things I never comprehended but are real
My heart it is broken by the ways of the world
The ways of the riches and the haze of the poor
The glazed eyes of the middle, they think they’re in control
The more my days they go the more weary my soul
So I don’t know
My mind it has left me
And so has my song
The world it rages, and nothing is certain
Take me to ten again when rain was just rain
This time of low, this time of lonesome
I think of you and know my heart can be okay
So let’s go
When this tide it turns over
When I can have your hand in my hand in a wide open field
I don’t know, don’t know where I want to be
Don’t know how I want to live
Don’t know how I want to give
When nothing is certain, my absolute is you
So this is where it hurts, when they go
You think it’d be forever, but who’s to know?
The nights are the hardest, the silence is hell
You don’t have to do this alone
It will be okay
Let’s get you out of here
I’ve got ten dollars and a bottle of wine
Jeans and my shirt on
Got this feeling it’s gonna be alright
It’ll take time, but I’ll make this all go
Even just for a moment
Let’s sully the night
And take you home
Once I had somebody, long ago
Said this to me when I was low
Riding this out is the best bet you’ve got
You don’t have to do this alone
It will be okay
I’ve got ten dollars and a bottle of wine
Jeans and my shirt on
Got this feeling it’s gonna be alright
It’ll take time, but I’ll make this all go
Even just for a moment
Let’s sully the night
And take you home
We were young
We had hope
We move on
Life is so
(Got me my bottle of wine
Oh this feeling divine
No doubt, no having to reason
No doubt, no having to reason)
Riding this out is the best bet we’ve got
Let’s get out of here
