Fading West with you
Fading West with you
The sun goes down for the summer
Mirror sky for the water
I am fading westward too
Fading west with you
Life won't sing like I want it
The traffic post modern sonic
The traffic hums a dirty tune
Fading West with you
Heading back to the west coast
Where I'm from
I'm heading back to the left coast
Where I belong.
California's calling me back home
Fading West with you
Keep my mind over matter
Cause I've seen my hopes shatter
They told me lies I thought were true
Fading West with you
The sun goes down
We were already going
Heading back to the west coast
Where I'm from
I'm heading back to the left coast
Where I belong.
California's calling me back home
Fading West with you
When I'm out on my own
Feel like I'm caving in
When you leave me alone
I start to wonder
Where have I been
Where have I been
Heading back to the west coast
Where I'm from
I'm heading back to the left coast
Where I belong.
California's calling me back home
Fading West with you
Fading West with you
Fading West with you

Against The Voices
I start the day against the voices
The ones that tell me that I'm wrong
I hear them now, screaming their delusions
I close my eyes and they're gone
In my mind I hear the voices
In my mind I have my doubts
Burning fears, these ghosts and apparitions
Oh may a whisper can drown them out
If they ain't singing
If they're just talking
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to by yourself
When the voices try to turn you into someone else
Someone else
I start the road against the voices
I picked a path out in the woods
I made mistakes, I've got the scars to prove them
I'd change the past if I could
If they ain't singing
If they're just talking
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to be yourself
When the voices try to turn you into someone else
I close my eyes and they're gone
Gone, gone
If they ain't singing
If they're just talking
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to by yourself
When the voices try to turn you into someone else
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to be yourself
I close my eyes and they're gone
The ones that tell me that I'm wrong
I hear them now, screaming their delusions
I close my eyes and they're gone
In my mind I hear the voices
In my mind I have my doubts
Burning fears, these ghosts and apparitions
Oh may a whisper can drown them out
If they ain't singing
If they're just talking
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to by yourself
When the voices try to turn you into someone else
Someone else
I start the road against the voices
I picked a path out in the woods
I made mistakes, I've got the scars to prove them
I'd change the past if I could
If they ain't singing
If they're just talking
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to be yourself
When the voices try to turn you into someone else
I close my eyes and they're gone
Gone, gone
If they ain't singing
If they're just talking
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to by yourself
When the voices try to turn you into someone else
Let them keep talking to themselves
Cause everybody knows
That the hardest war to fight
Is the fight to be yourself
I close my eyes and they're gone

Skin And Bones
The wasteland is mine, mine alone
The desert comes alive, when no one is home
Apocalyptic skies, burning gold
I walk these empty miles, I can't find a soul
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind, I'm miles away
I'm miles away
I'm not afraid to die, I'm afraid to be free
I'm not afraid to doubt, I'm afraid to believe
Don't believe the lies, of what you see
Elevate your mind above these animal dreams
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind, I'm miles away
I'm miles away
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind
The desert comes alive, when no one is home
Apocalyptic skies, burning gold
I walk these empty miles, I can't find a soul
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind, I'm miles away
I'm miles away
I'm not afraid to die, I'm afraid to be free
I'm not afraid to doubt, I'm afraid to believe
Don't believe the lies, of what you see
Elevate your mind above these animal dreams
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind, I'm miles away
I'm miles away
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
Flying overhead, these animal dreams
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind
In my mind

What It Costs
Sunlight fading fast, make it last
Like a flame flickers, then it's past
Moonlight fades to dark, carry on
You never know what's real until it's gone
But love deals the currency of loss
Don't ever forget what it cost
Hold on to me, carry me through
Our story needs the pain that we outgrew
Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost
If you love someone this is what it cost
This city cries softly tonight
Like a million teardrops from a thousand eyes
I'm drenched beneath the rainy Melbourne skies
Wonder how it is I feel so dry inside
But love uses the pain to drill the holes
That irrigate our dry and thirsty souls
Hold on to me, carry me through
Our story needs the pain that we outgrew
Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost
If you love someone this is what it cost
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
Sunlight fading fast, make it last
Sunlight fading fast, make it last
Like a flame flickers, then it's past
Moonlight fades to dark, carry on
You never know what's real until it's gone
But love deals the currency of loss
Don't ever forget what it cost
Hold on to me, carry me through
Our story needs the pain that we outgrew
Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost
If you love someone this is what it cost
This city cries softly tonight
Like a million teardrops from a thousand eyes
I'm drenched beneath the rainy Melbourne skies
Wonder how it is I feel so dry inside
But love uses the pain to drill the holes
That irrigate our dry and thirsty souls
Hold on to me, carry me through
Our story needs the pain that we outgrew
Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost
If you love someone this is what it cost
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
Sunlight fading fast, make it last
Sunlight fading fast, make it last

Slow Down My Heartbeat
The morning comes
My mind rolls back
My body's weightless
My world goes black
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
A loud scream in
My hands are bound
The world's still breathing
But there's no sound
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Euphoria's gone
It's time to move on
I have to believe we can change
My world's gone all wrong
Stop swimming along
We can't be the same old thing
Euphoria's gone
It's time to move on
I have to believe we can change
My world's gone all wrong
Stop swimming along
We can't be the same old thing
Euphoria's gone
It's time to move on
I have to believe we can change
My world's gone all wrong
Stop swimming along
We can't be the same old thing
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone
My mind rolls back
My body's weightless
My world goes black
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
A loud scream in
My hands are bound
The world's still breathing
But there's no sound
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Slow down my heartbeat
Euphoria's gone
It's time to move on
I have to believe we can change
My world's gone all wrong
Stop swimming along
We can't be the same old thing
Euphoria's gone
It's time to move on
I have to believe we can change
My world's gone all wrong
Stop swimming along
We can't be the same old thing
Euphoria's gone
It's time to move on
I have to believe we can change
My world's gone all wrong
Stop swimming along
We can't be the same old thing
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone
Euphoria's gone

The Edge Of The Earth
When the morning finds us
We open up our eyes
With the stars still fading in the sky
All along the journey
You leave the past behind
I had a dream that we could fly
Over distant oceans
The fallen mountains
The great wide open of the desert sky
And where I'll be is where you find me
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
So come on
Come on
So I set off running
To reach the other side
To find a place to call my own
There in the distance the rivers open wide
And I was lost but not alone
Over distant oceans
The fallen mountains
The great wide open of the desert sky
And where I'll be is where you found me
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
So come on
We open up our eyes
With the stars still fading in the sky
All along the journey
You leave the past behind
I had a dream that we could fly
Over distant oceans
The fallen mountains
The great wide open of the desert sky
And where I'll be is where you find me
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
So come on
Come on
So I set off running
To reach the other side
To find a place to call my own
There in the distance the rivers open wide
And I was lost but not alone
Over distant oceans
The fallen mountains
The great wide open of the desert sky
And where I'll be is where you found me
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
Meet me here at the edge of the earth
So come on
