Lyrics:
Where do you go when you follow the road
Leading you far from the places you know?
Into the other side of the world
Where nobody cares if you stay or you go

How do you find the peace of mind
When you’ve left everything behind?
Just take my hand and forget the past
And pick up the map that we used to dream of

We can find a way to escape 
Over distant troubled waters
Seeking love, adventure and fate
In the infinite abyss
Together we can be nomadic lovers
And navigate this never-ending journey

Where do you go when you follow the road
Taking you far where your heart overflows?
Never look back on the steps that you take
Many mistakes will show you the way

How do you fight these runaway years?
Limbo lock and I just disappear
Stop-motion is closing in
It gets harder to restart in the end

We can find a way to escape 
Over distant troubled waters
Seeking love, adventure and fate
In the infinite abyss
Together we can be nomadic lovers
And navigate this never-ending journey

Lyrics:
You, you and I both know
We were never meant to stay here in the unknown
They never thought we’d see 
All the things we ever dreamed of 
When we were young
Come along you don’t have to face this alone

Wait a minute for your heart
To sink into the sweetest feeling you’ll ever know
Just stay afloat by my side
Let your emotions guide you home

Say whatever’s on your mind
Nothing you can say will scare me this time
Try to let me inside
I can help you make the broken things alright

Lay your head on my chest
So that you can hear my heartbeat start to race
Breathe into my neck
As we synchronise and dissipate
Disappear without a trace
Like floating stardust into outer space

You make me see
Beauty hiding in everything
All of it’s real
Hold your breath to feel what I feel
Feel what I feel

"We wrote Urban Wilderness as a homage to Cape Town. It's the city which we both grew up in and fell in love with. The contrast between urban landscapes and scenic vistas of mountains and forests could inspire us for a lifetime. While we were studying at the University of Cape Town's College of Music, we would always dream of the day when we could travel the world with our music. When we found ourselves surrounded by the urban sprawl of London, we held on to sweet memories of our beloved hometown, its beaming natural beauty and vibrant culture."

Lyrics:
There is a mountain in my town
Rising up between two oceans
It is the keeper of a gateway
Leading to a flood of emotions

And I can sit here forever
Listening as the wind keeps calling my name
Between the grasslands and the thorn trees
Figuring out what it’s trying to say

I’m losing my heart in an urban wilderness
Trying to find my way in this town
I’m holding on to these signs of happiness
While I’m keeping my head in the clouds

I see the first light of the sunrise
Striking the crest of the shore-break
Along the coastline, under blue skies
We’ll be skipping stones ’til daybreak

And I can sit here forever
Watching as the shadows grow tall
Between the city and the three peaks
The Southern Cross appears at nightfall

I’m losing my heart in an urban wilderness
Trying to find my way in this town
I’m holding on to these signs of happiness
While I’m keeping my head in the clouds

Lyrics:
My heart’s on my sleeve and thinking kills me
What do I want? What do you want?
What do we want? Tell me
Just wrap it up please
What have we got? One shot, at this now

So we free fall down that dark hole 
And we hope for a hand to catch our hearts
In the end so we don’t fall again

Here we go
Everyone talks, but nobody’s right
It’s a fading light
Just see it through your own eyes

Tonight the weatherman’s out searching daylight
We know the sun shines when your and my shadows collide

Don’t bend back man you’ll break and fall
Don’t lose hold and let go
Sooner than you hoped for
Sooner than you know

Here we go
Everyone talks, but nobody’s right
It’s a fading light
You just see it through your own eyes

Don’t bend back man you’ll break and fall
Don’t lose hold and let go
Sooner than you hoped for
Sooner than you know

Here we go
Everyone talks, but nobody’s right
It’s a fading light
Just see it through your own eyes 
Break and fall
We break and fall

Lyrics:
I can see it in reflective light
My perspective has been shifted right-side up
Once oblivious, becoming obvious
Staring me deep in the eyes
Slowly I’m starting to realise

In hindsight we’ll overcome the fading daylight
And follow the winds of change
Time can only try to give us insight
‘Cause we will never stop this fight

The sun will swallow the moon will not give light
Stars will fall from the night sky
The world’s not concerned with our lessons learned
Holding us ransom for life

In hindsight we’ll overcome the fading daylight
And follow the winds of change
Time can only try to give us insight
‘Cause we will never stop this fight
Soon the fire within will reignite
Breaking you out of the cage
Time can only try to remind us
To fly with the hawk in the night
