- Atlas Hands
Take me to the docks, there's a ship without a name there
And it is sailing to the middle of the sea
The water there is deeper than anything you've ever seen
Jump right in and swim until you're free
I will remember your face
'Cause I am still in love with that place
But when the stars are the only things we share
- Box Of Stones
My harbor has a boat in it,
The water makes its way around here,
And when the sun shines down the hills winds blow
I miss you more!
Chorus:
You said I’m young, but I’m yours,
I am free, but I am flawed.
- Cherry In Tacoma
Cherry, I flew all the way out to Tacoma
To tell you that I'd die to get to know ya
But the signal died and I ended up sober
Cherry, I'm on my way, I know it's getting colder
Pacific in your garden, I can hold ya
Loosening the chips on both our shoulders
It's always a risk, pinning my happiness on a kiss
One shot wonder
- Full Full Colour
That summer, I took it to the edge with ya
But didn't show the full picture
I'd always been a run and hide kinda guy
I was two-stepping
Living in a fake heaven
Promising you forever
Singing in the low lit bar light
Ah, ooh-ooh
- Hole in My Hand
There is nothing we could say or do
To stop the world from tearing us in two
From your heart where I drew a line
Through the water and down your spine
I blew a hole in my hand to see you
I drew a line through the sand to be with you
- Maps
I named a star for you
I named a star after you
But that wasn't bright enough for you
I climbed a hill for you
I climbed a hill just for you
But you said "That's nothing new, what does that prove?"
- Numb
I numb out all the time, all the time
I get, get scared of the true colours of the past
So I hide and deny how long this has gone on
Putting anything to pieces
Then forgetting about it all
Still numb out all the time, all the time
You know that I wanna feel the rain when it hits me
Wanna see it with a clearer view I numb out all the time, all the time
- Pictures
If you crash your car into,
Your best friends house,
Would you be quiet as,
Words come out of their mouth.
Stop..... dont do it
I have been waiting for it,
Stop..... I knew it would come.
- seen you soon
When you were young
You lost on everyone
Then you closed your eyes
And said your goodbyes
In a year
Or ten, I will be there
I will come for you
- Shine
I could live in a different place with a different house and a different name.
I could sing you your favourite song, yeah you’d sing along, you’d sing along
I could wrap you in your favourite clothes and kiss your face just so you know
That I’m the one who has got your back, now turn around and don’t be sad
I hope you find the love that’s true, so the morning light can shine on you
I hope you find what you’re looking for, so your heart is warm for ever more
- super 8 eyes
For every time you pick up old dances
And spit them with the strength of a gun
I will follow your eyes as they move like to your dancers
Dancing away from the raging sun
The beat's down on the burden of lost chances
That you carry around like the only one
Amounts a taste of rain from the ground
From looking for gold that couldn't be found
- Sydney 2013
Shaking on the plane
Mercy in my headphones
I guess that I was scared
But I had a six month window
Liz was in the car
Waiting at the airport
I was unprepared
To say goodbye
- The Boat
Wherever you are
Floating on a boat or on a star
Whatever you do
Every time we touch you move
You have different eyes
For every time your heart arrives
- Tilikum
I wonder what you're thinking
Staring through the rain
Going through our baby names
Your husband thinks you're sleeping
At a motorway hotel
He doesn't know tonight you're flying out of hell
Be my rose, growing in the cold
