Energy Surprises
05:17
|
|||
Energy is strange, there’s a strange energy all about
Enemy or friend? There’s a chance to sort things out
There’s enough energy in this room to light a fire without a spark
There’s enough synergy I assume to make magic, that’s a start
Energy is strange, it comes in many guises
Energy is change, it trifles and disguises
Energy is fleet, it shimmers down your spine
Energy is cute it uncorks the bottle of wine
Energy surprises (Repeat)
Energy surprises, energy advises, energy enables, energy in cables
Energy across tables, Energy in eyes, energy surprise
Energy in the skies, energy in eyes, energy surprise

Solid Rock

Out here nothin' changes
Not in a hurry anyway
You can feel the endlessness
With the comin' of the light o' day
You're talkin' 'bout a chosen place
You wanna sell it in a marketplace
Well
Well just a minute now
You're standin' on
Solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line
Right down the line
Well round about the dawn of time
The Dreaming all began
A crowd of people came
Well they were lookin' for their promised land
We're runnin' from the heart of darkness
Searchin' for the heart of light
It was their paradise
Well they were standin' on
Solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Were blowin' cold that night
Well they were standin' on the shore one day
Saw the white sails in the sun
Wasn't long before they felt the sting
White man, white law, white gun
Don't tell me that it's justified
Cause somewhere
Someone lied
Yeah, well someone lied
Someone lied
Genocide
Well someone lied
And now you're standin' on
Solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line
Solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line
Solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line
No!

Dark Room
03:38
|

Feeling, are uncertain, time to close the curtains
In the darkroom
Closing in all my feelings surround me
Time to begin in this wilderness around me
A place where I can hide away from the noise that surrounds me, and the coterie
Thoughts all expired, now that I have grown tired
Sometimes I feel guilty not spending more time with the ones who love me
Sometimes I get tired, I grow tired
In the darkroom (repeat)

Shark Boy
04:44
|
|||
Waves, crashing to the shore
Waves, crashing to the shore
The sound of waves is knocking at the door
The turbulent sea, urchins and ink
And the waves silk the ways
And the waves take me down
The waves take me down (Repeat)
But I’m a shark boy
I’ll take you down, I’ll take you down, I’ll take you down, I’ll take you down
Take it all down (Repeat)
Waves come crashing on shark boy
The waves will come crashing down on shark boy
Waves coming crashing home to shark boy
Waves come crashing on shark boy (Repeat)

New Nonsense
04:08
|
|||
I pass by an old car on the side of the road
Its front smashed in, bonnet wide open like a gaping mouth
Saying it’s the end of the road!
Comparisons not wasted on fools, as I recount my depleted visage
In a bathroom roundel
Its paintwork spoiled like scars on a skin, tyres like a balding pate
New nonsense for the tow-away to take
Back at Oaks estate where the refuse of society mingle with old dogs and cockatoos!
Right now, there’s still promise for reform
Right now, it’s always darkest before dawn
Right now, I could lick my wounds in silence
Or confront the day with violence
Right now, there’s still promise for reform
Right now, it’s always darkest before dawn
Right now, I could lick my wounds in silence
Or confront the day with violence
Right now, I could take a risk and gamble
Right now I could find myself in brambles
Right now, I could contemplate the lifestyle
Right now, that would fill my heart with smiles
Right now, right now (repeat)

I'm Leaving
05:26
|
|||
Feeling guilty, feeling pain.
Stupid feelings in my brain.
No one hears a sound I make,
My whole life was a big mistake.
Before I'm leaving, there's something I would say.
You never wanna listen,
That's the price you have to pay.
What does it matter, I'm leaving here today.
What does it matter, I come back another day.
Before I'm leaving, there's something I would say.
You never wanna listen,
That's the price you have to pay.
Feeling guilty, feeling pain.
Stupid feelings in my brain.
No one hears a sound I make,
My whole life was a big mistake.
Before I'm leaving, there's something I would say.
You never wanna listen,
That's the price you have to pay.
What does it matter, I'm leaving here today.
What does it matter, I come back another day.
Before I'm leaving, there's something I would say.
You never wanna listen,
That's the price you have to pay.

Emma
04:48
|

We were together since we were five
She was so pretty
Emma was a star in everyone's eyes
And when she said she'd be a movie queen
Nobody laughed
A face like an angel
She could be anything
Emmaline
Emma, Emmaline
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
Emmaline
Emma, Emmaline
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen
At seventeen we were wed
I'd work day and night
To earn our daily bread
And every day Emma would go out
Searching for that play
That never, ever came her way
You know sometimes she'd come home
So depressed
I'd hear her crying in the back room
Feel so distressed
And I'd remember back when she was five
To the words that used to make
Emmaline come alive
It was :
"Emmaline,
Emma, Emmaline,
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen.
Emmaline,
Emma, Emmaline
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen."
It was a cold and dark December night
When I opened up the bedroom door
To find her lying still and cold
Upon the bed
A love letter lying on the bedroom floor
It read :
"Darling I love you,
But I just can't keep on living on dreams no more.
I tried so very hard not to leave you alone.
I just can't keep on trying no more."
Emmaline ...
Aaargh, Emmaline ...
Aaargh ...
Emma, Emmaline ...
Aaargh ...
Emma, Emmaline ...

Euie b Graham Canberra, Australia
Ending formal lessons on violin, I began writing songs in 1992, graduating to a four-track cassette recorder shortly after, and the addictive journey of composing then recording was entrenched. I continue, assimilating influences and forging my own way. I shy away from performing, I write, record then move on. I would love others to listen and enjoy, and hold out hope that I May find an audience. ... more
