Caging lions in my head
Got me here in the first place and I
Guess it’s not coincidence
Reflections taint the paintings in my head
Some days skip the black for blue
I hold them close as they pull me through while
You stare blank and ask what’s wrong?
No answers yet but I’ve only just begun
So start again, this time I’ll mend
From spirals, drag me round
Spirals, drag me round
Spirals make me lose my mind
Twisting round the madness to bind
Fake from real I just don’t know
On and on so it goes
So while I’m feeling stuck on trial
Throw another fall on the pyre
Spark a match set it on fire
The only way we’re getting through tonight
So start again, this time I’ll mend
From spirals, drag me round
Spirals, drag me round
Let’s start again, I’m broken
This time I’ll mend
From spirals, drag me round
Spirals, drag me round
Drag me round
Drag me round
Drag me round
Upside down

Back with more naivety
Went out searching for the wild
It didn’t take away my soul but we
Traded battle scars
I’ve been living
To destroy everything
But it’s clear they say
Life is all you make
You choose your fate
So I know it’s how this feeling goes
Though you wouldn’t have a clue
My two extremes I can’t control
They’re as one for you
I’ve been living
To destroy everything
But it’s clear they say
Life is all you make
You choose your fate
All I want is you
I don’t know if you can
See past all my demons to
The better side of who I am
I’ve been living
To destroy everything
But it’s clear they say
Life is all you make
You choose your fate
I’ve been living
To destroy everything
But it’s clear they say
Life is all you make
You choose your fate

Some dreams that could not breathe
Sleep peacefully tonight
You never touched the ground
But your traces are still right here
When I finally got to meet you
Well I could not stand just stare
While I held and kissed you
All hope disappeared
Someday, some way
I need to hear you
Someday, some way
I will be with you
Where you are
Oh my god I feel I’m drowning inside
From the pain
Tearing in my defences
Driving me insane
Someday, some way
I need to hear you
Someday, some way
I will be with you
Where you are
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be at your back
Sunshine warm upon your face
Until we meet again
Someday, some way
I need to hear you
Someday, some way
I will be with you
Where you are

Thoughts in my mind space
Wasting light in better days
So anxious and afraid
In my melancholy haze
Between a road trip
Coffee sips and filter tips
You made my world stand
For something
I met you on my road
Did my eyes ever let you know
You shine brighter than I’ve ever known
I still shake when I say hello
Between a road trip
Coffee sips and filter tips
You made my world stand
For something
Between a road trip
Coffee sips and filter tips
You made my world stand
For something more
Well how could I know
Of the love you deal
If I can’t speak
Of the love I feel
Between a road trip
Coffee sips and filter tips
You made my world stand
For something
Between a road trip
Coffee sips and filter tips
You made my world stand
For something
More, more
More, more
More, more
More, more

He sat there so understated in a small cafe
He stayed until late escaping his own foray
They made their way tired and beat from her curtain call
Tears fresh, eyes red, dressed in darkness
No answers at all
Years pass by
Times always the dealer here
Clear your eyes
Let sleeping dogs lie
Allies and angels give, what you need to get through your day
Keep your head moving
Everything you know, it’s going to be alright tend the wound
Bleed it out
Years pass by
Times always the dealer here
Clear your eyes
Let sleeping dogs lie
Allies and angels give, what you need to get through your day
Keep your head moving
Everything you know, it’s going to be alright tend the wound
Bleed it out
Their memories shining on, confront his night
His spirits remain healing their fight
Allies and angels give, what you need to get through your day
Keep your head moving
Everything you know, it’s going to be alright tend the wound
Bleed it out

To the Sea

On our way down to the sea
My dark passenger chokes my esteem again
The wounds and scars no longer bleed
But I’m still screaming underneath
Take me to the sea
Where I can breathe
Where my mind can roam free
And I can feed
In times like these
The real me
When you spend some time with me
It disappears just like a Melbourne wind
You give me rest from this disease
A hurricane slowed to a calming breeze
Take me to the sea
Where I can breathe
Where my mind can roam free
And I can feed
In times like these
The real me
Feel it washing over
Take my hand I’ll show the
Mountains in my mind
Breaking through the sides
If ever you get weary, come get over beat the
War pigs from the door
Find what you’re searching for
Take me to the sea
Where I can breathe
Where my mind can roam free
And I can feed
In times like these
The real me
Take me to the sea
Where I can breathe
Where my mind can roam free
And I can feed
In times like these
The real me
Take me to the sea
Where I can breathe
Where my mind can roam free
And I can feed
In times like these
The real me

We follow the rules
Like misguided fools
Does anyone round here
Know where we’re going?
A modern disease
A twisted history
Diversion signs
Like rivers are flowing
First put you at ease to give you room to breathe
Now it’s all in for the kick of the century
I’m done pleading insanity
Back away from me
Take all your vanity
Your worst enemy
We follow the rules
Like misguided fools
Does anyone round here
Know where we’re going?
A modern disease
A twisted history
Diversion signs
Like rivers are flowing
First put you at ease to give you room to breathe
Now it’s all in for the kick of the century
I’m done pleading insanity
Back away from me
Take all your vanity
Your worst enemy
Still there’s still so much to say
You step it up and back away
Lies lead us to broken games
This time we lost but not again
I’m done pleading insanity
Back away from me
Take all your vanity
Your worst enemy
I’m done pleading insanity
Back away from me

Please get out of here before I lose all feeling
This place is getting old it's left my heart concealing
Of all I know and I've been
Too lost and scared to hear what it says
Something has got to give
Anywhere I go, I’ve got to make it from here
Anywhere I choose to go, will need my heart in too
I feel like an island without a bridge
No one can get out no one can get in
Pick all the pieces up clear my head from the smoke
Life sometimes fucks me off, I’m not gonna choke
Something has got to give
Anywhere I go, I’ve got to make it from here
Anywhere I choose to go, will need my heart in too
Anywhere I go, I’ve got to make it from here
Anywhere I choose to go, will need my heart in too
When you feel like nothing
You feel there's nothing to lose
It's here or a cliche, I’ve wondered what I'll choose
With so much to sense in life tell me what you'd expect
That I’d just lay down and die?
Fuck that I'll keep drawing breath
