About Emptiness:
CRACKING UP (E A D G B E)
What time is it? I think I just felt rain. It’s sinking in. Like a thought I can’t explain.
Superpowers. I don’t need them. I’m strong enough. Pretty flowers. Tougher than me. And I’m pretty tough.
Reverse parking. Use your mirrors. Try not to rush. It’s not funny and I’m not laughing. I’m cracking up. I’m cracking up. I’m cracking up.
I’M THE SAME BUT I’M CHANGING (D A D G B E)
Rabbits float and ducks eat grass. Watch the snake as he flies past. The possum never knew her name. I’m changing but I’m the same.
Feel the wind brush your cheek. Watch the leaves float down the creek. Jump right in don’t be ashamed. I’m changing but I’m the same.
Clean your bed and make your car. Wish upon a broken star. Sing all night and fall day. I’m changing but I’m the same.
Spin the world the other way. Put your hope in yesterday. It’s not a big but I’m just saying; I’m the same but I’m changing. I’m the same but I’m changing. I’m the same but I’m changing.
I’M CHANGING BUT I’M THE SAME (D A D G B E)
Rabbits float and ducks eat grass. Watch the snail as he flies past. The possum never knew her name. I’m changing but I’m the same.
Feel the wind brush your cheek. Watch the leaves float down the creek. Jump right in don’t be ashamed. I’m changing but I’m the same.
Clean your bed and make your car. Wish upon a broken star. Sing all night and fall day. I’m changing but I’m the same.
Spin the world the other way. Put your dreams in yesterday. It’s not a big but I’m just saying; I’m the same but I’m changing. I’m the same but I’m changing. I’m the same but I’m changing.
NOW IT IS DARK (D G D G B E)
Now it dark it is really dark and I realise it wasn’t really that dark before.
Though I know it is real it is hard to believe that when the light returns it will be enough.
So I’m drawing the blinds and I’m closing my eyes and counting the cicadas that never made a sound.
Because now it is dark it is really dark and I just hope I make through the night.
I just hope I make it through the night.
I just hope I make it through the night.
IT FEELS LIKE I CAN’T (D G D G B E, capo 2)
Open my chest like a cupboard full of things we bought years ago and forgot about.
Close every door you can but leave the windows just enough for someone to climb through.
It feels like I can’t but it’s just my mind playing tricks.
I hop over a puddle and it starts to rain.
I stayed in the water until my legs weren’t sore and when I got to the beach everyone had changed.
And it feels like I can’t but it’s just my mind. It feels like I can’t.
SPEAK SLOWLY (E G D G B D, capo 2)
Speak slowly. Go gently. It’s not easy. But when you’re ready it will find you. And everything goes quiet. For a while.
Speak slowly. I’m listening to what you say. And what you don’t says just as much.
How many days and nights swept away like fallen leaves?
I’m going. Come with me. Speak slowly. I’m listening.
YOU CAN’T LET GO OF WHAT YOU’RE AFRAID YOU’LL LOSE
Another short song as the sun goes down. Another long day just spinning round.
And I can’t keep what I could never find. And you can’t let go of what you’re afraid you’ll lose.
The kookaburras taught me to fly. We laughed all day under the bluest sky.
But you can’t keep what was never yours.
And you can’t let go of what you’re afraid you’ll lose.
IT TOOK ME TWO YEARS TO WRITE THIS (E A D G B D)
Sun coming out. It’s getting warmer now. Let’s go down and sit beneath the trees. I’ve got a song to sing. Nobody knows the words.
Snake on the trail. I better watch my step. Easy to forget we’re in his home without our shoes on. Can we carry on? He’s nine metres long and I’m not sure if these ones are venomous.
Sun going down. I’m getting tired now. Here’s a place I found. Out of the way. In the still shade. Watch me melt away. This is all I need. And it’s all I have. And I won’t be long. But I’ll take my time.
I’ll leave you with these words:
Ba da da da. Ba da ba ba.
It took me two years to write this.
Da da da ba da da da.
Ahhh.
It took me two years to write this.
BIRDS TALK TO ME ALL THE TIME (Electric piano, slow rock)
Birds talk to me all the time. I just don’t know what they’re saying. But they look at me like: Why aren’t you flying? And I never have answer.
Birds talk to me all the time. I just don’t know what they want. Sometimes they laugh, sometimes they cry. And I just smile and close my eyes.
Birds talk to me all the time. I just don’t have any proof. But when I’m alone they swoop down from the sky and I know what they’re saying is true.
