God this is hard, you've had no sleep
You've thought of nothing else for weeks
You begin your lines and fumble with your purse
Its been eatin' you, you don't know what to do
And your lie only made it worse

You can't expect him to understand
He's not a saint, he's just a man

Watching the boats slip away
As I raise my hands above my head
Struggling against the waves
Even the seagulls have left me for dead
No one on the deck saw me fall
Just another man slipping into the night
The party still rages on board
No one on the deck is even noticed I'm gone at all

Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip

Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip

Listen now my sweet Anne
I didn't mean to cause you pain
We could have spent all summer
Sitting here making daisychains

I lie awake at night
Staring at my roof
Now you're gone

Happy again for the precious time I steal
For a minute there I thought my dream was real
Sometimes you come to me as a flock of birds
Sometimes you come dressed as Allen Ginsberg

Until the mornin' light the same dream every night

In my dreams you are alive and breathin'

Lillian lies to avoid awkward questions
Looks at the sky for intervention
But she cant avoid judgemental compassion
In the Void

She puts on her face, makes it a brave one
Gets herself a seat on an interstate greyhound
When everything's gone at least you've got nothing

I just changed my mind
I traded it in
For a new sheet of skin
and tea within.

The doctors couldn't prescribe
Anything else from the medicine shelf
Oh cure thyself.

Your letter came today
I'm glad to hear the clinic's going okay
I can, I can, I can, I can, I can see a way
I can, I can, I can, I can, I can see how you'd change

And you exchanged one addiction for another
You tell me, "He's reckless, strong, an exciting lover"
If anyone you should know how it feels

Piece Of Wood

All I am is a piece of wood
Cut from something living
Touch me I don't feel to good
I'm cold but I'm not shivering

You say I do not know, to say

Pull down the blinds and stare at my blank screen
Some voice is asking how my weekend's been!
Planes go across the sky of Petersham
One day I will see all the hope that's stored in them

The pale underside catches the light
Like a see-saw I need more weight to carry me up
Maybe one day she will

Released under watchful skies into a town I didn't recognise
I was a tourist with no story, lost in this purgatory
Escaped the smell of chalk and shame, pledged a classroom in my name
The PTA won't bless me and the yearbook will assess me
I walked down these familiar streets, now filled with circus freaks
My plans are as useful as a baby's hand there's no planning in
shadowland

Babe, let's move to Sicily
Just you and me
and the mediterranean sea.

I work on a scallop boat
that would keep us afloat
the sun would burn my throat.

I feel like hell, you feel like dancing,
You know this bar curtains a world,
Those empty bottles, like sentinels,
stand guard in the morning sun.

Then the lights go down
and all the people gather round
and you feel like you are a skeleton jar

You lit the spark, the day dawn dark
and your restless body swings
in the breeze,
I was laid back, laid flat, laid off
and I didn't even want the job,
Anyway its too late now,
You're having someone elses dream,

Did you find what you were looking for in room 13 of the 16th floor?
Did it all become suddenly clear to you?
Did you find what you were looking for in the silence between his snores?\

Did you find it there at 3am?
Here’s a new dress, do you fit it?
Did you find it? Oh, you didn’t?

The summer rain is falling like its never going to stop, it's been ages.
Puddles form on city corners, businessmen they leap between the edges.
Umbrellas take up battle spots but nature's fury always proves much stronger.
I've been sitting in my room wondering if I'm going to last much longer.

I've been so damn sure that I've been here before.
I'll give back what I borrowed
and start today tomorrow.

The day is grey, don't love you anymore
The sun smiles on the red tiles, I don't love you anymore
The Frankston Line's full of teenage crime
And the cops can't do no more
Hooded topes, cigarettes at stops, I don't love you anymore

I'll leave you, I won't leave you
The sea's so beautiful

The fin-de-siecle - that golden age
All those bright young things with bright young things to say

Nothing ever changes, history just rearranges
Facts and dates and figures with it's finger on the trigger
To protect the children, the investor's hard-earned millions
While the excrement increases, time just freezes

Down in the valley, the industrial estate
He slaloms round beer cans in his escape
He never got nothing, in death even less
What'd you say? I bless

Do what we like
Go where we like
Happy to see it says

I'm looking for oblivion
Become the place where the horizon ends

I am just flesh, sublimated my brain
Made a mistress of lust and a slave out of fame
I have learnt my lesson

There's always two sides

I'll meet you by the drain.
We'll run through leaves and shopping trolleys, gathering in the rain.
Cocooned in our nest of joyful folly.
We have no home. This is our home.

Our parents are asleep.
They think that we're still kids and they know what the first one did.
But they'll never know the things we did.

I’ve lived in this town for 13 years, I’ve been around.
You see that window in that tower? That was mine.
Under that fluorescent light where I made cold calls through the night to houses deep in suburbs I will never go.
Then in Chinatown I’d get something and hang around. How does that busker know each day from the next?
See that man who just brushed past me?
Well I know him, but don’t ask me about him.
I wonder, is he still with his wife?
