Beneath The World
Sometimes I wonder where I've been
The edge of the world is strange
Is this the world I was brought into?
Scenes that can't remain
I think about my friends and I don't know why
things had to get away
Last time tired eyes met mine
Standing in the rain
At night beneath the world is ours
We can dance through streets for endless hours
Of all I've ever known
I remember places where we've grown
Will you walk away?
When there's a battle still to fight
Is it worth it still to pay the price?
When all that I know now
I won't sell my friends to save my hide
But should I walk away?
Too High
Eddie rides his bike
By her window in the eve
With his arms out wide
Through the warm December breeze
He waits outside the gate
Streetlight shadows through the leaves
Can hear the broken plates
and the yelling from the street
Hey Joe, don't go
I'm too high to go back home
I hate this dead-end town
It's just a park and your bedroom
I hate your folks as well
I hope they kill each other soon
Hey Joe, don't go
I'm too high to go back home
On my own
Sky-Man
She sleeps to stay young
Until her prince comes
And dreams of her love in flight
And the moon becomes a line
and the line becomes a sphere of light
forever in the night
Waiting for the worst never changes how it hurts
and i'm ready for the wave
like an ocean grave
you can't save what can't be saved
so i'll see you on the shore
From the ocean floor
Waiting for the worst never changes how it hurts
and i'm ready for the change
like a hurricane
come and blow my house away
but i'll see you by and by
waving from the sky
Like a hurricane
Come and blow my house away
Oh darling, please don't cry
See me in the sky
Turning to White
All the colours turning to white
Feels like you could give up the fight
High enough to fly with the kites
And look down on the Ivanhoe lights
Arm in arm with your love again
To see the Santa Homer Simpson
All the colours turning to white
Never let your heart be denied
Jess if you could just see me now
Jessica I think you'd be proud
I've really got my heart in my mouth
Just about to fall off this cloud
Now it feels like morning's to bright
Only growing lighter and light
All the colours turn in to white
Never say that love's not a right
You save me a place
hanging on at heavens door
I'm always been late
This time I won't be there at all
Ahh but I see the path divide
Ahh And I watch you out of sight
I Love You Too
I hate myself
Can't say why
Cos then you'd hate me too
One true love
Can never die
I wonder if it's true
You love him
And he loves you
You know I love you too
I see your name
Is on his list
I guess I never knew
No other way
To learn this gift
Now I know it's true
You love him
And he loves you
You know I love you too
You know I love you too
'But how can this be true?
I Love You Too.'
I love you too.
Caravan Park
Step into the Light
Hey mum, job's done
You've been holding on
You don't have to worry anymore
No please, I need to see
Don't hide your face from me
Step into the light once more
Life will hit you with a bang
Soon everything we love will burn
There's a book of grace and a book of sin
We're writing in
Thank you and I'm sorry, friends
It's all done we're moving on
I'm happy mum
We've got another life to live
Life will hit you with a bang
Soon everything we love will burn
Take all the songs we sang
They just won't be strong enough to turn
Gasbag, sad drag
You fucking fag
We don't have a chair for you
Go on, keep walking on
Out of town
Ain't nobody cares for you
When you step into the light
They will not be strong enough to burn
Whatever life you've been denied
You will turn into a love we'll learn
Joy & Pain
When the night is much to strong
to wait until the morning comes
You try and free your time
And kill your mind
But you don't have to wait alone
See it in the morning light
You'll it's just the time's not right
And if I did before i don't care anymore
I've finally given up the fight
And it's a long way down
To fall so far
So don't be so hard upon yourself
The stars so bright and grand
Can hold them in my hands
And all the joy and pain
Is all the same thing
Only in the darkest night
You'll find the brightest light
And all the joy and pain
Is all the same thing
All the same thing
Eyes of Love
Only the eyes of love
Only the Eyes of Love
Only the Eyes of Love
Prevail
And all of your lies
Your secret disguises
All your spies
Will fail
Only the purest white
in the depths of the darkest night
only what's right is right
Stand tall
I see what you've done
You'll keep us all dumb
It'll last for so long
Then fall
No, I'm not ready to let it go
And fade into the afterglow
All wide-eyed
I'm not ready to let it go
All the seasons we'll never know
In twilight
Deeper Love
Sometimes you want to close off
But you've got to keep yourself open
Cos a song will come and enter your heart
when your heart is broken
when it's torn apart
You'll search this whole world just to find
To find a keeper
Keep your love
If we can hold on through the hard times
Our love will grow deeper
Deeper love
Deeper love
When our family was turn apart
I thought that it was forever
but we each find our own different path
that will lead us back together
though the road is hard
You'll search this whole world just to find
to find a keeper
Keep your love
If we can hold on through the hard times
Our love will grow deeper
Deeper love
Deeper Love
Hold On.
