Carrington Street
A violet sun falls from the sky,
Another bikie thunders by
Feel the southerly crawl over skin,
Jacarandas praying against the wind
I drift on out the door
My mother cries, where have you gone?
As I wonder on, down the street of Carrington
Dream the river rising again,
Waves come crashing upon my bed
Prepare to sail on down the hall,
Once a street, has now become my home
I drift on out the door
Wet feet and a scar to show
My mother cries,
Where have you been?
As I wonder on,
Down the street of Carrington
If you saw me drowning,
Would ya jump right in?
Torrents rumble,
Under high tide sounds
Twisting whirlpools of ocean brown
Hold back brother from a sudden drown
Never felt my heart thump so load
We took the long way home
Far from the river’s troubled soul
My father, where have you gone?
As I wonder on, where have you gone?
As I wonder on, down the street of Carrington

Silent Hum
Early morning and I can’t find sleep
Twisting and turning with my thoughts so deep
Red digits glinting chase shadows away
A memory forms a dream into place,
I lay here, with a silent hum
Silent hum
Here’s a thought I never had before
If death comes crashing, knocking at my door
Could it be a portal to a parallel world?
Would you stay here so innocent and brave?
Remembering, with a silent hum
A silent hum
Late in the evening and I can’t find sleep
Twisting and yawning with my thoughts to deep
Questioning moments that pass the day
As the shadows again, come out to play
Lost in thought on what could change
As I lay here, with a silent hum

In The City
All is lost in the city
The grey clouds turn from green too red
I had a dream of the city
The urban stories that people tread
You know you’re here
With a swag of fear, Ain’t it so, quite…
My thoughts lost through the neon lights
Where can I turn to find my self?
A look to the left and a turn to the right
One move to late a familiar site! You know you’re here
With a swag of fear
Ain’t it so, quite
And you run circles here
With a box of tears
It’s so, quite, It ain’t so, quite… here
You know you’re here
With a swag of fear
Ain’t it so, quite
And you run circles here
With a box of tears
It’s so, dam quite, It ain’t so, quite here…
I hope you find your self in the city
With the thought of chasing your own shadow
Until it fades you won’t really know
Which way you were meant to go
