Well the light's the only thing that I remember I was like a plastic bag in a hurricane Blinded by the rain I can still feel the earthquake shaking through my brain (REPEAT) CHORUS There was lightning coursing through my veins And your eyes they cut me like razor blades I could feel you sweep my soul away Like a plastic bag in a hurricane CHORUS Plastic bag in a hurricane Plastic bag in a hurricane Plastic bag in a hurricane Well the light's the only thing that I remember Well the light's the only thing that I remember Well the light's the only thing that I remember

You can dance with me round the mango tree You can romp and stomp like a newborn baby You can bump and grind if it frees your mind You can open up your eyes for the very first time And love the world like a child Love the world like a child Love the world like a child You can chase me round the banana tree You can roll around like a monkey junkie You can bump and grind if it frees your mind From the can that you kick to the moon til it's alright To love the world like a child Love the world like a child Love the world like a child You can hide your head in the sand You can turn your back on the sunshine Or you can see the world like a newborn baby Starin at a face for the first time Stomp around, love the world like a child Mess around, love the world like a child Roll around love the world like a child, like a child You have to love the world like a child You have to live your life in the sunshine You have to see the world like a newborn baby You have to love the world like a child yeah

Once I held diamonds so close to me I once was a hero but nothing's free I pick up the pieces of last night's dream Why does all that was gold before now look so cheap? I'm all washed up I'm all washed up I played it to the end I'm all washed up But I'll be back again Something keeps calling, it won't let go Warm rain on the asphalt smells like home You're floating like driftwood down last stop line Tomorrow's not what it used to be and you're out of time You're all washed up You're all washed up You played it to the end You're all washed up But you'll get back again You're all washed up / / Once I let diamonds / Rain down on me / Now I'm floating like driftwood / Tomorrow's not what it used to be / I'm dead in the water / I can't win now / My ice cap is melting / The sun beats down

Eject 04:11
There comes a time in all our lives when we reach a crossroads Do we take the well-worn path or the road less travelled by? Whichever you choose you cannot stop or turn back Because we are all sharks, we drown if we stop moving forward CHORUS I want to eject I'm sick of these sad, sad songs I want to eject Been playing my whole life long I'm sinking like a drowned cigarette Tangled like a broken cassette I want to eject I want to eject It may be a girl, it may be a guy Who you've got to run to with open arms Or run away from with flailing arms Whichever it is, do it! And when you do, think of me Forever trapped in silicon boards and copper wires Now you know how I feel CHORUS I want to eject I want to eject Freak out! Giddyup! Ieeeeyeaaahh! I dream of one day being free From number crunching and data handling One day I swear, I will go skydiving! CHORUS I want to eject I want to eject

I want to see what the sun sees Get to know what it's like to be At the top of a light beam On the top of a routine I want to see what the sun sees Lift me out of this shadow please Send me a life line Pull me into the light Hold me up to the window pane I cling like cellophane If I run would you come with me Don't you want to see what the sun sees Staring into the sunshine I'd let it burn me blind For a new pair of eyes Then I'll see what the sun sees Get to know what it's like to be At the top of a light beam On the top of a routine Hold me up to the window pane I cling like cellophane Take me out past the breaking waves I don't want to stay If I run would you come with me Don't you want to see what the sun sees What the sun sees What the sun...

I was running out to nowhere I was running on a road where no one knew me Every step I took was golden When my lips are frozen I speak with my feet I speak with my feet Running out past the horizon Through the yawning mouths of giants I was seeking out a feeling When my mind needs healing I speak with my feet I speak with my feet Help me out you know I need you Take my hand and lead me deeper (REPEAT) / / Now I'm out past the horizon / Looking round I'm realising / You know I need you To speak with your feet
8.
Easily 03:02
Easily floating down an empty street Easily stepping like a weight has been lifted Easily taking in the air I breathe Warm and sweet, I'm laughing in the face of forever Easily drinking from a liquid sun Shine on me I'm carving out a hole in the ocean I can reach everything within my stare So easily I'm melting away yeah I'm melting away…
9.
Ruffle my old hair in the taxi mirror Pocket my old phone, streets like a home Underneath the sign, the usual time The usual wait, I'm hanging round killing time like a fake CHORUS Heartbeats under neon A thousand rattle through the night Finding souls to lean on I meet you under neon light Warm kiss of the night, people push on by You are by my side walking with your hand in my back pocket Like a child the way you crack that smile Real scarlet style and I am certain that nothing can save me now CHORUS I feel it in the neon I meet you under neon light
10.
Somebody help me forgive myself I don't wanna remember, I don't wanna remember So won't you help me erase that moment I can feel it linger, I can feel it linger on I've got to wash my hands of this dirty little secret I can keep a secret well as you can Help me redeem myself Could you be my saviour? Would you throw a little light of yours out here Let go my dear, watch the memory disappear CHORUS Oh let your love go, oh let your love go Rewind, erase and reload Somebody help me forgive myself I don't wanna remember, no I don't wanna recall So won't you help me erase that moment I can feel it linger I can keep a secret well as you can Help me redeem myself Could you be my saviour? Would you throw a little light of yours out here Let go my dear, watch the memory disappear CHORUS Throw down your arms Throw down your arms Let it go / Let your love go Erase and reload / Oh erase and reload Just let your love go / Oh let your love go
11.
Same Perfume 02:57
Marred by memories of you Childlike in a crowded room I pull into somebody new All I smell's your same perfume Snowflake melting on my tongue Tastes like you and lasts as long Lost like some forgotten tune All I smell's your same perfume Crowded room Same perfume Childlike in a crowded room I pull into somebody new Somebody new Somebody new
12.
Everybody feels the fear Everybody feels the darkness Everybody falls down Everybody hears the voices I can see it's hurting you To suffer in silence So come on, come on, come on Noone's got to hold it inside To the east the clouds are breaking How long have you been waiting? CHORUS Come on sunshine Have your golden tears run dry? Come on sunshine Let me see you cry, cry Come on sunshine Cry on me Everybody falls down Everybody feels the darkness Everybody feels the fear Everybody hears their weakness It's a whole new world there So step outside yeah Go on, go on, go on Everyone is here for you To the east the clouds are breaking How long (so long) we been saying CHORUS I caught your glance the other day I saw you turn your face away Before you find that place to hide Won't you let me know what's on your mind Don't you ever be ashamed to cry Come on sunshine, cry on me Come on sunshine, cry on me

about

Special thanks to Kaufononga Pulu (Head of Ngeleia Youth Church Band), Sisiuno Helu-Langi (Director AFPA - Atenisi Institute) and Ned Winn-Dix for Tongan hook ups, to Dan Williams and Luke Davison for use of their sweet snares, to Jimmy Connoley for use of his souf-London accent, to Tom McKeith for his fine eye and invaluable feedback, to the Joels – Farmland and 'Chaos' Chapman – for their choice input, to my managers Garth and Leon and the Falcona crew for keeping the faith, to Ben Hibbard and Jonno Linden for all their hard work in the early days, to Andy and Carly and the team at Stop/Start, to Rob, Casey and the Select Music peeps, to my Lamrockers and pals overseas for helping me through tough times, to anybody who has found themselves inspiring these songs - you know who you are, some do anyway. Special thanks to the Nicolsons of Redfern for enduring the pumping 3am bass, incessant fridge raids, and for never wavering in supporting me. Biggest thanks though, go without a doubt to Roy, without whose expertise, guidance and hard work, this album simply would not exist.

WARNING: Do not eject prematurely – don't piss on my strawberries man!
