Power lines blowing in the winter wind 
clouds floating above 
it's not dark or light but in-between 
an airplane tears them apart 
flying towards the sun while the baby sleeps 
the baby dreams 
I wonder what she sees 

Daytime moon 
night time sun 
all the hours of the day or night don't matter 
anymore 

Dead branches flying in the winter wind 
half-sun floating above 
it's not dark or light but in-between 
small clouds move right in front 
they burn away while my baby sleeps 
my baby dreams 
this is what she sees 

CHORUS

Daytime Moon (Darcy)

Staring through that clear glass door 
there's not much to see 
every time I want to look out 
there's always a blinding glare 

Step outside get a better view 

Standing by the seaside 
I hate it here 
sand and water 
burning sun 
jealous envy 
two and three 
lacking something in the middle of nowhere 

It's hotter inside 
but I don't want to go pass these walls 
feel the heat come up over time 
I guess it's better to just complain 

Just how low can your comfort go 

CHORUS

The Middle Of Nowhere

"Don't Change" - Written by Garry Gary Beers, A. Farriss, J. Farriss, T. Farriss, Hutchence & Pengilly - 1982

I'm standing here on the ground 
The sky above won't fall down 
See no evil in all direction 
Resolution of happiness 
Things have been dark 
For too long 

Don't change for you 
Don't change a thing for me 

I found a love I had lost 
It was gone for too long 
Hear no evil in all directions 
Execution of bitterness 
Message received loud and clear 

Don't change for you 
Don't change a thing for me 

I'm standing here on the ground 
The sky above won't fall down 
See no evil in all directions 
Resolution of happiness 
Things have been dark for too long 

Don't change for you 
Don't change a thing for me

Don't Change

in 1941 they laid you down 
a simple procedure all gone wrong 

Where did you go, Rosie? 
they did not want you to embarrass the family 
Where did you go, Rosie? 
Where did you go? 

They made you sing to know you're alive 
A chill came over right when you stopped 

CHORUS

Where Did You Go, Rosie?

Lyrics by: Sarah Shintaku 

It's hard to tell if i'm awake or asleep 
except I always know what to say in my dreams 
people say when the leaves change it all starts over 
you crawl through the ashes searching for some memento 
to prove you lived at all 

Won't hold my breath 
world is changing 
but I can't live like this 

Can we stop 
for a minute 
can you hold out 
just a little longer 
the days will keep on turning 
just like we find we grew up along the way 

It's a lifetime or a little longer 
you won't really know until you wake up on your own 
I used to believe stories were nothing more than that 
until I saw their shadows in the corners around me 

Won't hold my breath 
world is changing 
but I can't live like this 

CHORUS

War Gar

The last time I felt this way 
I was six states away from home 
Trying to remember what you just said 
I am coming up with blanks 
Except I know that look on your face 
I’ve seen it too many times before 

Pre-Chorus: 
You’re disappointed but never more than I am in myself 
But never more than I am in myself 

Chorus: 
It’s life like a Steinbeck fantasy 
I’ll stay as close as you’ll let me 

You’ll never know the bones of an old house 
Until you try to move when it’s quiet 
Then there’s no getting out 
Talking with every move I make 
It’s always stepping just the wrong way 
Down – down – down 

Pre-Chorus 

Chorus 

Pre-Chorus 

Chorus

Six States Away

Watching from the safety 
Of the corner above the stairs 
Watching as he caves again 
As she brings him back to tears 
And tomorrow she’ll put on a different face 
Gaslighting the traces of memory 

Chorus: 
It’s how the blood talks 
These are the voices 
I hear sometimes 

They say diamonds are forever 
A girl’s best friend 
But she etches spite into his face 
With a slap of her hand 
And I drown it all out 
With Roy on the radio 
Because “only the lonely know” 

Chorus 

Chorus

How The Blood Talks

There lies a ghost inside of me 
There lies a ghost in everyone 
It will never leave 
Never find peace 
The sight of light 
All depends how much you want to feel 
You can’t bury it or burn it out now 

Pre-Chorus: 
Don’t take too much medicine it might make it worse 
It might make it worse 

Chorus: 
This Geist lives inside your head 
It follows you wherever you go 
There’s hope that it all will fade 
But that would be an easy door 
For escape 

The lights go down 
You breathe in deep 
You’re trying not to watch it reappear 

Pre-Chorus 

Chorus 

Wake Up 
For the dream has all but ended 
The pieces you reminisce on 
Are nothing more than remnants 
These fragments of fantasies 
That are thoughts in your future presence 
Render you rigor mortis 
It’s hardening up your essence 
No longer an adolescent 
We’ve graduated to grown pain 
It doesn’t heal the same 
It penetrates to the bone 
Moving around the marrow 
And making itself at home 
So much it leaves us in fear 
If we ever feel like it is gone 

Chorus
