I can hear the sound
This house of leaves, it’s burning down
Like a wildfire burning faster we’re out of control
I can see it on the road, I can hear it on the radio.
Five birds and three stones
She’s drunk again and I’m stoned
Too dark to know if I’ve been wronged
I can see it on your face, I can hear it on the telephone
It’s eleventh of July
Time’s flying by
It’s eleventh of July.

Well a new year's coming and it's coming up fast
Boy start running it'll kick your ass
Starts out hard and only gets worse
End of a life - death of a nurse.
Heartache, heartache of the realest kind.
Now it's too late, too late, to say goodbye.
So I'm growing up cold and talking straight
I got big dreams and they can't wait for you to
pack your bags and walk behind
Never been one to stand in line.
Look at you all
I can't believe
They were the final words you said
Before you checked your ticket and closed your eyes
I'll see you on the other side
Starts out hard and only gets worse
End of a life - death of a nurse.
Hold me now and don't pretend like you don't know that everything ends.
Hold me now and don't pretend like you don't know.
Something to say boy or something to prove?
Risky play, so much to lose
Wet your lips and dry your eyes
Good days make the best goodbyes.
Look at you all
I still believe
She'd be having a ball
Before you checked your ticket and closed your eyes
I'll see you on the other side
Starts out hard and only gets worse
End of a life - death of a nurse.
Hold me now and don't pretend like you don't know that everything ends.
Hold me now and don't pretend like you don't know.

Rose - Of Adelaide town
You don't know what you've got going down.
Ya got style and Grace - your smile, your face
It drives me wild
It's like nothing before
At night you come alive
Taking it back to your place or mine.
Rose of Adelaide town
Sometimes you get down
But you'll come back around.
Coz you've been through pain
But you smile again -
You've so much love to give
It's the best of you.
So I write these lines
With you in mind, and on my mind
Too much of the time.
Too much of the time.
Just a little too much
Just a little too much
Of the time.
I know I can take it, is that all it costs?
Just a little too much?
But too much of what?
Too much of the real thing
Too much of a good thing - is never enough.
So when it get's rough
I know you can take it, I think you might like it.
Anything goes.
Only if you say so.
Rose of Adelaide town.

My sister
We're getting older
I hope you know
we're in this together.
Oh My sister
I do adore ya
Do anything for ya
a helping hand when I've been down.
You know it's true - I do adore ya
Think you're the best
My sister,
Though I wish you'd
Stop smoking cigarettes.
My sister
From another mister
You got two of your own now,
And five uncles to show them wrong.
My sister
As they're getting older
I hope you know
We're in this together.

Is this everything you've ever wanted?
We've come so far
I know at times you get so lost and daunted -
but look where we are.
And it's always
Cookin' in the back of my mind.
I keep on looking and looking -
But I don't find it.
And I'll go running round the streets where I grew up
Without you
And I still dream of lighting gasoline
and busting out.
Now we're running up and round the garden -
of branching paths.
Read the signs we don't know where we're going
Too much to ask.
And it's always,
playin' in the back of my mind.
I keep on looking and looking
but I don't find it.

Guns and Steel
All out so soon
Friends are jumping around
You're not around
Like water, shorting out a circuit board - Australian made
A country lost and found.
Sunburnt and homesick
There's people in the streets - too many to count.
Have I found home?
I haven't found your lord

She don't give a fuck about you
Don't waste time on those who doubt you
Let 'em slide
Let 'em fall by the wayside.

Thunder, and heavy rain
Couldn't hold me back, or keep me away
I'm running straight towards it, a burning sun
I know I'm not (no I'm not) the only one.
False love, and prison chains
Couldn't tie her down - she's wasted so many days
How could we be so fucking blind?
It's not wasted love, but wasted time.
As your fragile love, turned away from me
Where my eyes had lost your shadow by the sea -
Bring me home
Bring me peace.
Coz every day I travel farther from you - and I admit defeat.
Run.

Rollin' far away
Goin' for the coast
Headed for the South
Don't stop 'till the break of day
Puerto Rican girls
man, I love the Rolling Stones
Skin upon my skin
Bones upon my bones.
Time for me to get goin'
I've made up my mind
Pack of old thirteens -
and vagabond green eyes.
Sometimes it's easier to run
than to fight a battle that can't be won.
Diamond in the rough
You don't have to be afraid
(They try to tell ya)
Go and get a real job
(Lemme tell ya)
You're gettin' underpaid
Puerto Rican girls
I love the Rolling Stones
Skin upon my skin
Bones upon my bones.
Time for me to get goin'
I've made up my mind
pack of old thirteens -
and vagabond green eyes
Sometimes it's easier to run
Than to stay
And come undone.
(I come undone)

I got an old friend of mine.
She's been around a long, long time.
I got her back - and she's got mine
I don't wanna go, but it's my time.
And it's happening again
a thousand times, I've been here,
And a thousand more.
I don't know how and I don't know when
but I'm already dead -
dead and gone -
down river, downtown, down river, downtown.
I'm getting old before my time
She been ah rollin' down the line
Tell us a story in all your glory
you're breaking down
Meet me on the main street,
or on the edge of town.
When I reach my destination
When I'm running on and free
I got my baby by the doorstep -
Think she's good enough for me
I'm enamored by your dancin
I'm a fool for you
Baby girl when I was gone
down river, downtown.
