Fly-In, Fly-Out
03:39
|
|||
Working remote, so far from home
More debts than I can stand
It ain’t no joke, mortgaged and broke
Strayed from my budget plan
Fly-in, fly-out, I’m on the road again
Fly-in, fly-out, all my time on the road I spend
“Daddy’s never home” my young kids moan
No clue what I go through
I never know, I’m in which time zone?
My body clock’s askew
Fly-in, fly-out, I’m on the road again
Fly-in, fly-out, all my time on the road I spend
Driving blind through red eyes
Following the white lines
To get home see the family by daytime
One more time
On my way, another Groundhog Day
Was this to be my fate?
My wife estranged, my kids dismayed
But can they truly appreciate that I…
Fly-in, fly-out, I’m on the road again
Fly-in, fly-out, all my time on the road I spend
Fly-in, fly-out, to keep the family home and fed
Fly-in, fly-out, I don’t regret one day of it
Following the white lines
And the roos’ shining eyes
As the gantries pass me by all through the night
Fly-in, fly-out

Truth
03:41
|

You, you’re stuck in time
Can’t seem to find, why you run the race
Can’t find your place
It’s all the same, nothing will change
Now is your time to rise
Reach out and grab the truth
And it will come back to you
Just open your mind and realise
The truth will come back to you
Now start to believe, open your eyes and see
Now is your time to rise
Reach out and grab the truth
And it will come back to you
Just open your eyes and realise
The truth will come back to you
Now rise, reach out and grab the truth
And it will come back to you
Just open your mind and realise
The truth will come back to you
Reach out and grab the truth
And it will come back to you
Just open your eyes and realise
The truth will come back to you

Your Beer, My Wine
04:45
|
|||
What will I do, what will I do without you?
I have no clue, how can I make it through?
I’m just scared I’m going to lose control
Scared you want to let me go
Words can’t explain the fear and doubt inside me
The hurt and pain, the black cloud hanging round me
I’m so scared I’m going to lose control
Scared and so I’ll let you go
I’ll take your beer, you drink my wine
Time to hit the road, I’m losing time
Need to leave my bitter heart behind
We’re done, my dear, you will be fine
I’m out of here, going offline
So I’ll grab a beer and you can drink my wine
Hey, listen! I’m not broken, so why keep trying to fix me?
Your words unspoken and yet they still affect me
And you’re always trying to keep control
So you’re going to have to go
I’ll take your beer, you drink my wine
Time to hit the road, I’m losing time
Need to leave my bitter heart behind
We’re done, my dear, you will be fine
I’m out of here, going offline
So I’ll grab a beer and you can keep my wine
We know not everyone can stay together
We know not everyone is meant forever
Be together, stay forever, altogether
I’ll take your beer, you drink my wine
Time to hit the road, I’m losing time
Need to leave my bitter heart behind
We’re done, my dear, you will be fine
I’m out of here, going offline
So I’ll grab a beer and you can drink the wine
I’ll take your beer, you drink my wine

Kokoda Track
03:31
|
|||
It’s so easy to stand, yes, to stand in the crowd but tough to stand alone
And so easy when taking the easy way out when you have no backbone
Yes, it’s easy to stand, getting cash in your hand when you sell yourself out
On your feet you will land, sucking up to the man when you’re soul is bought out
So when your back’s to the wall and they’re locking your doors, nowhere to go at all
When you’re under attack, stand up, you’ve got to push back
Just remember Kokoda, the Kokoda Track
Standing up for what’s good and what’s right you must fight overwhelming odds
Standing up for what’s true you must fight for what’s right, standing up to the boss
Courage, endurance and mateship, on broad shoulders we unite
Standing up for what’s real and what’s right we’ll fight and sacrifice
Fighting the toughest campaign, stranded in pouring rain, guts climbs the highest terrain
Into your soul they will hack, so don’t get stabbed in the back
Just remember Kokoda, the Kokoda Track
Courage, endurance and mateship, on broad shoulders we unite
Standing up for what’s real and what’s right we’ll fight and sacrifice
So when your back’s to the wall and they’re locking your doors, nowhere to go at all
Fighting the toughest campaign, stranded in pouring rain, guts climbs the highest terrain
A bully poking your chest, strap on a bulletproof vest, don’t let yourself be oppressed
When you’re under attack, mate, I’ll be watching your back
Always remember Kokoda, the Kokoda Track

Leave My Baggage Behind
02:58
|
|||
You find your life ain’t so easy today
You’ve got a love and it’s going away
You gotta drop it, you can’t stop it
Since things have turned to a difficult way
I’m just cruising down the highway of life
I’m just leaving all my baggage behind, tonight!
Future getting clearer, no rearview mirror
Just let it go and leave my baggage behind
Ain’t no stopping, chasing the horizon
Find me a new state of mind and leave my baggage behind
And now we’re moving, radio grooving
We’ve got a new life and it’s rocking today
We gotta make it, just can’t fake it
We’re gonna push on to a brand new day
We’re just cruising down the highway of life
I’m just leaving all my baggage behind, all right!
Future getting clearer, no rearview mirror
Just let it go and leave my baggage behind
Ain’t no stopping, chasing the horizon
Find me a new state of mind and leave my baggage behind
The future’s clearer, no rearview mirror
Just let it go and leave my baggage behind
Ain’t no stopping, chasing the horizon
Find me a new state of mind
Future getting clearer, no rearview mirror
Just let it go and leave my baggage behind
Ain’t no stopping, chasing the horizon
Find me a new state of mind and leave my baggage behind

How History Gets Told
03:51
|
|||
We ventured out
Did what we had to, got what we came for
The spoils are ours
King and for country, got what we came for
What explorers saw
Was not man, readied with spear
It was something more
We made disappear, won’t take the blame for
They are engineers
Buildings and dams, and intricate systems
That’s not what you hear
According to conventional wisdom
What explorers saw
Was all razed, razed to the ground
What was here before
Won’t make a sound, silenced; the victim
Club and the cloak were all that we wrote
No more to see
Dim v. the bold, just watch it unfold
This will be how history gets told
What explorers saw
Was all razed, razed to the ground
What was here before
Won’t make a sound, silenced; the victim
Club and the cloak they were all that we wrote
No more to see
Dim v. the bold, just watch it unfold
This will be our history
Club and the cloak they were all that we wrote
No more to see
Dim v. the bold just watch it unfold
This will be how history gets told

Shit Sandwich
03:52
|
|||
Down again, frown again, never been, born to win
Clown again, drown again, never been one to win
Alone and bored, so self-absorbed, nowhere to run, feeling overcome
Falling down again, I’m shedding skin, living in sin
They give you the runaround, push you to the ground
Leave you gagged and bound
I tell you life’s a bitch so eat the shit sandwich
Self-pity, ignominy, hard to see when you’re all at sea
I know it hurts, seems like a curse, you don’t need a hearse, so it could be worse
Just try to see the actuality then maybe you’ll be free
They’ll give you the runaround, push you to the ground
Leave you gagged and bound
I tell you life’s a bitch so eat the shit sandwich
You know you’ll never win, so you pack it in, take it on the chin
Just get it over with, yeah, eat the shit sandwich
If we try to see the actuality, only then can we ever be free
They’ll give you the runaround, push you to the ground
Leave you gagged and bound
I tell you life’s a bitch so eat the shit sandwich
You know you’ll never win, so you pack it in, take it on the chin
Just get it over with, yeah, eat the shit sandwich

Feeling All Right
04:43
|
|||
I’m not scared, feeling all right
On my bed, it’s out of sight
Heaven sent, with you tonight
No more cares, we’re feeling all right
Look ahead, it’s looking all right
In good stead, it’s out of sight
Love will spread, with you tonight
No fear or dread, we’re feeling all right
I’m not scared, feeling all right
On my bed, it’s out of sight
We break bread, feeling all right
No seeing red, it’s out of sight
Love embed, with you tonight
Not misled, we’re feeling all right
We’re not scared, feeling all right
On our bed, feeling all right
Heaven sent, feeling all right
No more cares, feeling all right

Lap of the Sun
04:43
|

I saw the tear and I felt it too
And I can’t imagine what it’s like being you
But don’t fear now, you just stay true to
What you know is real and all that you do
For the stars you see they shine so bright
The same ones that I see at night, use them as your guiding light
Even far away we’re near, the sky for us is always clear
Hold memories made, oh, so dear
And get on with the job, son
You just get it done and work on it one by one
No time for fun, just take another lap of the sun
The sacrifice, well, I know it’s real
It’s the ultimate price to seal the deal
A better person waits on the other side
So your noble efforts fill me full of pride
One now done, two still to tend
Adversity you will contend, is it all worth it in the end?
The toll of time it will pervade, but if good decision’s made
Baton passed, our light will not fade
So get on with the job, son
You just get it done and work on it one by one
No time for fun, just take another lap of the sun
Don’t stop and smell flowers, it’s ten-thousand hours
You work on it one by one
You’ll feel more empowered as we take another lap of the sun

Million-Dollar Question
03:39
|
|||
Running round and round, flying up and down
All around the town, this girl gets around
Here she comes, prowling again
Hear her growling, stalking again
She’s rolling into town
Hide, don’t make a sound
Ain’t nothin’ like her, a loving machine
She’ll be the queen, of your wet dreams
Is it the world you want? (The million-dollar question)
Wanna fill your vault? (The million-dollar question)
Is it all my fault? (The million-dollar question)
Can’t get what you want? (The million-dollar question)
Jump at any sound, makes your heart pound
Fear she comes around, leave you gagged and bound
Here she comes, prowling again
Hear her growling, stalking again
She’s going to pull you down
Make you her clown
Ain’t nothing like her, a killing machine
She’ll haunt your dreams, be your scream queen
Is it the world you want? (The million-dollar question)
Wanna fill your vault? (The million-dollar question)
Is it all my fault? (The million-dollar question)
Can’t get what you want? (The million-dollar question)
She’ll haunt your dreams
Gonna make you scream
That love machine
Is it the world you want? (The million-dollar question)
Wanna fill your vault? (The million-dollar question)
Is it all my fault? (The million-dollar question)
Can’t get what you want? (The million-dollar question)
It’s a million
It’s a million-dollar question

Last Wave Home
04:29
|
|||
Tried to escape the pain but seemed to lose my way
Wanted space just for a day
Out in the ocean I could while it all away
And there I wanted to stay
Been out riding on the swell so long
Out at sea when it’s with you I belong
Your perfect shadow on the beach gets long
As the sun sets, time to catch the last wave home
Out in the sunshine I could lose all track of time
Living like that I felt was fine
Surfing with dolphins but it’s feeling like I’m losing you and I resign
Been out riding on the swell so long
Out at sea when it’s with you I belong
Your perfect shadow on the beach gets long
As the sun sets, time to catch the last wave home
Down for so long, don’t know what I did so wrong
Now in a song, I can let go and let it move on
Been out riding on the swell so long
Out at sea when it’s with you I belong
Your perfect shadow on the beach gets long
As the sun sets, time to catch the last wave home

Signing Off
03:58
|
|||
It’s easy being all alone, to walk around with a frown
Getting harder everyday to stop free-falling down
The black dog is always stalking and something’s got to give
Missing out on all things good in life when I just want to live
Signing off, and now I’m signing off, heading home, for so long I’ve been gone
Shut down, park, just walk away, no more will I accept
Excuses, flakes and sycophants, and promises not kept
Take control of it from here, yeah, the future’s in my hands
Return to where it all began, place my feet on burning sands
Signing off, and now I’m signing off, heading home, for so long I’ve been gone
Signing off, had enough, signing off, heading home, for so long all alone
Time, it cannot heal
Until I control the wheel
Offloading baggage from the past to be back home for good
Surrounded by the ones I love, exactly as I should
Signing off, and now I’m signing off, heading home, for so long I’ve been gone
Signing off, had enough, signing off, heading home, for so long all alone
Time, it cannot heal
Until I control the wheel
