Tall Buildings

Get to Melbourne jetlagged and tired

Didn't sleep at all on the flight

Three little hours that I'll never get back there's a life I left behind

First thing I do is buy some papers for a smoke,

thought it would sound good in a song

Next thing I do is look up at tall buildings, what's this city hold for me?

So wont you hear me play music

Wont you let me sing my songs tonight

Cause there's a few things I've given up just to get here

There's a few things I'll never set right

Sometimes I think where will I be in five years?

Will I be older but things still the same

Or will I be doing what I've dreamt of since twelve

Coz writing songs is my game

And I pray that's what I play music and the cruel things said ain't right

Cause something can grow so shallow and selfish

If it only lives under stage lights
