Hey, how you been?
    I've been a lot of things.

Indoors or out.  But who really knows?

And "Hey man!", I've seen you on the floor.
You used to be tall, but no-one remembers.

I asked you 
    "Are you my friend?"
You were dead on my birthday.

And you looked at me.
Like you had a choice.

Like we're all good friends.

I saw you last night, we were together, holding hands.
But you didn't remember.
I see you now, looking proud.
Proud because your nothing.
Proud because your loving.

Like we're all good friends.

Stop lying, I'm tired.

Proud of your cuts, on your bandaged wrist.
Staring at the mirror, your only friend.

And "Hey man!" I say to myself.

Like we're all good friends.

I'm Tired

23, you are me.
With winter comes summer revelry.
23, you and me.
With winter comes cold memories.

The snow falls over and over.

The sky lies.  Nova to nova.

23, you are me.
With summer comes winter revelry.

The snow falls.  Shoulder to shoulder.

23, you or me.
Who is she so suddenly?
The sky lies.  Nova to nova.

I'm not in love.
With this party.

I haven't checked if it's requited.

I am in love.  Get excited.
I haven't checked if it's requited.
It's just a party.

Don't think you're special, don't think you're prime time or the front cover.
Kiss on the lips, kiss on the cheek. 
Lay next to me.  And I will be quiet.

It's just a party.

Oh Ok

This was recorded at the Australian Institute of Music.  Produced by Dean Andersen.
We recorded another version of this at Studio Ripple later.  But I like this one more I think.

From a show at The World Bar in the Cross in 2009.  We didn't know we were being recorded.  A year later Chris Rollans (sound dude at world bar) gave us them.  Totally unmixed, live stuff.  But what the hey!  Better online than in the long forgotten realms of an old hard drive.
