Track Name: Tonight: Tonight

I woke up today
With a half forgotten smile
Don't know how things came to be this way
Right now

As you travel through this world
You can hope to find
Your little nirvana
And float above the sky

Tonight
Everyone gets high

I've walked many a street
With jokers and thieves
A place to make a blind man
Learn to see

Hands in my coat pockets
Cutting across the frozen streets
With my friends

Tonight
Everyone gets high
Track Name: Marijuana Mornings: Marijuana Mornings

I’ve woken in a haze so many times before
Ushered through the fog, into the dark
Followed by a slamming door, oh what for

Through a window there’s a park and people laughing
With smiles as wide, as any smiled before,

And these,
Marijuana mornings clear the fog out of my sky
And the lies I tell myself that can’t come true
And the only thing I really need until the day I die
Are these marijuana mornings next to you
For these mornings seem to have the clearest view.

Waking up slow next to you, is moving so fast,
Can it last?
When it’s everything that is true
You shine your light down on my silver wings, But it’s hard to see,
Behind the devil’s door.

And these,
Marijuana mornings clear the fog out of my sky
And the lies I tell myself that can’t come true
And the only thing I really need until the day I die
Are these marijuana mornings next to you
For these mornings seem to have the clearest view.

Somewhere outside dreams a baby’s crying,
Crying for life, crying for love, catch my dreams,
Catch my fall….

And these,
Marijuana mornings clear the fog out of my sky
And the lies I tell myself that can’t come true
And the only thing I really need until the day I die
Are these marijuana mornings next to you
For these mornings seem to have the clearest view.
Track Name: Murderous And Insane: Murderous and Insane

Blood like fire
Through her veins
She's gonna surprise you
No two times the same

A flame rises to her throat
She falls to her knees
I’m at her command
When she summons me

Babe, you’re murderous and insane
And I don’t want you
To ever go and change

In this world
Of such cruelty
Others hide in shame
But I got a woman
Hallowed be her name

Babe, you’re murderous and insane
And I don’t want you
To ever go and change

Shadows that woke me
Come again no more
I’m going to protect you
That’s what love is for

Babe, you’re murderous and insane
And I don’t want you
To ever go and change
Track Name: Colours In The Sky: Colours In The Skay

These city walls can’t hold you in
the concrete jungle with it’s blood and sin
it covers so much truth in vain and tells some lonely tales
the grass is green but not green enough a coat of polish but it’s still so rough
come on angel bring your stuff and carry us away
you still don’t know the sting of hate many say that you’re strange that way
you close your eyes to reality but it’s always just outside
your words are weak when you try to speak
your legs are so heavy and you can’t feel your feet
you want it bad but you just can’t sleep this time will drive you mad
your horizon holds the light
when only darkness fills your eyes
you lost your way but you found a sign
you’ve seen the colours in the sky
you’ve seen the colours in the sky
you look for an answer where does it hide
you’re pleading for someone by your side
but you’re just a ghost noone can see
fill you with colour tonight
people seem so much stronger than I
you say I’m a mere speck in the sky
but when I find my place i won’t wonder why
i’ll take it with open arms
your horizon holds the light
when only darkness fills your eyes
you lost your way but you found a sign
you’ve seen the colours in the sky , you’ve seen the colours in the sky
you’ve seen the colours in the sky , you’ve seen the colours in the sky
Track Name: Seven Days: Seven Days ( S. Reilly )

seven days has a heart
seven days has tears
seven days can fall apart
when they don’t hold you near and
i was lost before i found you
let me make it clear
seven days can feel just like a year
it’s so dark in here
let me light this flame
i would feed it all my air
just to glimpse your face again
when the flame it flickers
and dances on your cheek
i’ll inherit the riches of the meek
seven days has a heart
seven days has tears
seven days can fall apart
when they don’t hold you near and
i was lost before i found you
let me make it clear
seven days can feel just like a year
Track Name: Song For Dale: Song For Dale

I don’t wanna die in this hotel , i wanna fly so high
don’t wanna feel the fires of hell , just wanna ride the sky
watching my chrome tail pipe
shine , shining so bright
not even the stars can break my fall , they’re like a firewall
i’ll follow those lghts across the sky , into the stars and stripes
jet powered death glider......
fly , flying so high
fly , flying so high
fly , flying so high
from mountains high to valleys low it’s such a long way to go
a journey of man and machine maybe there’s no in between
when you are born to be....
fly , flying so high
fly , flying so high
fly , flying so high
fly , flying so high
fly , flying so high
i don’t wanna die in this hotel , i wanna fly so high
Track Name: Darkness Into Light: Darkness Into Light

You want fire in your veins tonight
one desire no control tonight
running wild howling at the moon tonight
you found darkness in the light
those dreams you wished would one day come , they haunted you a tormented one
they laugh right in your face as you cry
heartless game of lies and seek where through the cracks the truth does weep
you feel the sharpness of defeat
the things you wanna say but your words freeze over and set like clay
you’re statuesque but your mind won’t rest tonight
you’re searching for a sweet escape but you’re overcome and there is no haste
now you’re looking for that medicated lie
you want fire in your veins tonight
one desire no control tonight
you show the world you’re doing well , a performance any fool could sell
but you’re a customer that never wants to buy
the monsters in you r head won’t sleep , and upon your weaknesses they feast
a hunger that never seems to die
you stumble into that hole you know
a place that gives a nice warm glow , a place you think you never want to leave
but that warm embrace you think you feel , it’s just a rouse it is not real
but once again you’re rolling back your sleeve
you want fire in your veins tonight
one desire no control tonight
running wild howling at the moon tonight
you found darkness in the light ,you’ve found darkness in the light
you found darkness in the light
Track Name: Those Wild Blue Eyes: Those Wild Blue Eyes

Those wild blue eyes
Are the envy of all the stars
Looking like you didn’t care
In some kind of world with nobody there

There’s gonna be warm days and sunshine
All bitter tears are behind you now
You’ll never be afraid
Just walk outside in the world
Trade all your tears
For those wild blue eyes

Like a river it flows
To a new dawn
Nobody knows
And I keep searching for those blue eyes
And hope to understand
All that’s gone before

there’s gonna be warm days and sunshine
All bitter tears are behind you now
You’ll never been afraid
Just walk outside in the world
Trade all your tears
For those wild blue eyes
Track Name: From The Turnip Patch To The Window Sill: From the turnip patch to the window sill

He lives in a shack on the side of a hill
eats of the land ‘till he gets his fill
cools his pie on the window sill
strums a guitar when there’s time to kill
it’s turnip pie most every day
but he don’t complain that’s the mountain way
he kisses his woman ‘fore he hits the hay
and the air’s as sweet as suger cane
and the rains came down on the window sill
it flows down to the valley until it’s filled
and it’s four miles down and back again
from the turnip patch to the window sill
well the rains came down washed his shack away
down to the river and out to sea
a thousand miles to an uncharted island beach
and now it’s coconut pie underneath the palm trees
and the rains came down on the window sill
it flows down to the valley until it’s filled
and it’s four miles down and back again
from the turnip patch to the window sill
instrumental
and the rains came down on the window sill
it flows down to the valley until it’s filled
and it’s four miles down and back again
from the turnip patch to the window sill
Track Name: I Never Knew: I Never Knew

Some people
Know everything
About the world
What makes it spin
Why an eagle flies
Into the sun
How a story ends
When it’s only just begun

But I cannot make that claim
I wouldn’t lie to you
Yours was a love
I never knew

You can always find me
In some crowded bar
I just sit here by the window
Wondering where you are

Come back and I’ll tell you
What makes me so blue
Yours was a love I never knew

Luke, Nick, Luke, and Johnny, Well, what a sweet acoustic gift from a quietly talented Australian band. Just keep doing this! My ears like your stories, your guitar playing, and you know what?... I can hear every word, beautiful. Is it true that this CD was mainly put down live, in only 5 days? That says a lot for your live performances! Thankyou. My favs are Honey, Doorstep, Sugarcane, Falling Through. Birdgirl
