Im lying awake
Going out of my mind
The clock still ticks
But it ain`t keepin` time
I`m cutting the tape
I`m crossing the line
I`m leaving the past
I`m clearing my mind
Will you be around
If I hit the ground
I`m building a bridge
I`m crossing the sea
I`m flying away
I`m plantin` a seed
I`m knockin` down walls
To set me free
Rush in with the tideLand on my feet
Will you be around
If I hit the ground
Please don`t make a sound
Before the lights go down
I`m cuttin` the tape
I`m crossin` the line
I`m flyin` away
I`m readin` the signs
I`m takin` a leap of faith this time
And where I land will be just fine
Will you be around
If I hit the ground
Please don`t make a sound
Before the lights go down

Stop The Boats
04:16

In tiny boats
Sailing south
Through Torres Strait
Towards this land
Crashing waves
The only sound
Tell me I won't
Be the next to drown
On Manus island
In relentless heat
Have e taken hope
From the refugees
In leaky boats
Just one last chance
Maybe find a home
On Australian land
Stop the boats is all we hear
Voices falling on deaf ears
My country won't believe
These people are down on their knees
My country don't understand
The way of a desperate man
Yeah I`m fleeing persecution
Its my right …as a human
Stop the boats is all we hear
Voices falling on deaf ears
> Chorus….My country ….
And keep them ….locked up and away from here…
And keep them ….far far away from here…
And keep them ….locked up and away from here…
Great Southern Land
Stretch out your hand..
Your fellow man…
Can barely stand..
Stop the boats is all we hear….
My country won't believe
These people are down on their knees
My country don't understand
The way of a desperate man
My country won`t believe..
The plight of the refugees
My country don't understand
The way of a desperate man

Close Your Eyes
04:13

Far away from the sea
Is not a place for you and me
It`s a place that beholds
A little tale of the unknown
Far away from the crowd
Where I can think out loud
Slowly peel back the skin
Hear myself brethin` in
Feel myself fallen` in
Close your eyes
Shut them tight
Dream away
Clear your mind
Close your eyes
Get miles away
Dim the lights way down low
Not a sound from below
Everything that ya know
Tightly wrapped around your soul
Pull it in hold it close
Every word that ya know
Play it out in your head
Makin` out you are there
But you`re asleep in the chair
Close your eyes
Shut them tight
Dream away
Clear your mind
Close your eyes
Get miles away
Fill your mind
With another time
So far away
Hipnotized
Mesmerized
So far away…...

Marysville
02:44
|
|||
|
And the wind swept away
Any hope that remained
For the town
When the fires that raged
On Black Saturday
Burnt you to the ground
And Marysville…Marysville…Marysville
So devine
And the Black Spur remains
And the people had faith
In their hearts
How they gathered in one place
Fear etched in their faces
They survived
> Chorus
Now all the trees…are coming back to life….x3

We said goodbye
When you closed your eyes
Into the darkest night…you
Slipped away
And all this time
You been on my mind
All this time
I can still see your face
So we climbed and climbed
Up the mountain side
And we slip and slide
On the rocks and the stones
And all this time
You been on my mind
All this time
I can still see your face
And the road that winds
Through the trees and vines
You know we`re all gonna end up in the same place
