A Garage 04:35
I come downstairs you walk away something bad in the air you just won't say I've been worrying I've been losing my mind you've been hiding out waiting for the right time but there's no good time to say it's over and there's no easy way to end our life together so I catch up with you in the garage you're messing around with something in the car and I make you tell me and I fall apart you cry and shout you go all the way to town and back, and out again and back, and out again now I'm standing on the concrete of the home we made filling up my brain with all the things I won't say like don't do this, please don't go away but it's all too late you're back upstairs somewhere being brave I'm paralysed listening to the kids play

no crows a'calling to the magpies across the street no neighbours a'staring not wondering where is he going? on the day I left our home no baby's a'crying no mothers grinding their teeth no radios a'blaring twenty minutes commercial free on the day I left our home no dragonflies a'hovering above the pool in the midday heat not a creature was stirring all around us there was peace on the day I left our home I know you are listening to the loneliest of all my songs but don't you go a'worrying about me rattling my bones in the days since I left home

telephone, flashing alone in the room I call "the spare" behind a closed door don't wanna see you anymore just pretend that no-one's there I put out the light settle in for the night this couch is too short for my legs detective shows, music videos how I fill the holes that you left in my life on the weekend I catch up with some friends try to forget you for a little while but at the end of the night a solitary bus ride I'm staring into the black blackness staring back lonely man the moon don't shine for you sun don't rise for you birds don't call to you anymore seems life is for the lovers and time is for the others it's trouble, man the dream has disappeared hopes all drowned in tears and no-one's around to hear about it

five-fifteen, day one and I'm trying, really trying this time and tonight I will sit down with the years let them do what they do I won't interfere four thirty-three, day two waking up, clear headed to the space that was you and this morning I'll go walking with the tears let them own my eyes I won't interfere six forty-nine, day three and the panic ebbs and rises I should get out of here but I just can't and this evening I will lay down wth the fears let them hold my heart I won't interfere I will be dry I will stop trying to drink you off my mind I will be dry dry dry

twilight it's time to put the horses to bed the breeze rolling down the hillside sets the leaves slapping and the bats flapping away dog paddling across the dam chasing the ducks away smoke spilling from the neighbour's house the cold descends rapidly today so come along now let's brush you down and i will lay a blanket on your back a palm on your forehead and say goodnight the endless fence disappearing, unfinished into the scrub around the back i know, i can see i'll have to let it go before this place gets too big for me so come along now let's brush you down and i will lay a blanket on your back a palm on your forehead and say goodnight goodnight, goodbye

Angela 04:15
Angela it's good to see you again how are you? like what you've done to your hair so, you're working must be good to have steady money coming in you make it sound so cruisey Jason I can barely understand a word you're saying won't you take a stool now, man? where'd you meet her? she reminds me of that girl from twenty years ago you make it look so easy and oh how she talks through your shrugging silence silence Sally you've been working very hard to get the money to buy yourself that pretty car you wanna run away to the country or the sea will you go soon? leaving here ain't easy smoke it up down the freeway with the wind bawling and the road dust falling sprinkling the past

Stoned 04:10
sometimes I get tired of trying so hard to do all the right things sometimes I want to be left alone not walking through the past not walking to the future so I step outside into the weak porch light wrapped up in the heavy damp air dogs barking in the builder's yard say - who's that coming now? stay away or we will cut you down then I draw back hard and I am ascending into a dark and endless space somewhere among the stars then I draw back hard and I am ascending into a dark and endless space somewhere among the stars what would you say? would you shake your head and walk away from me? so why don't you just turn around and walk away from me? no need to worry now no need to worry now no need to worry now
8.
one sunny morning some time from now you will wake up without me on your mind and not realise one fine, fine morning some time from now I will wake up without you on my mind and not realise not angry anymore not crying anymore the day is yours and mine not angry anymore not crying anymore everything is mostly fine
