about

ABOUT /

Taken from EJECT: Archives + Demos 2004-2014 album.
Recorded in 2007. One of my earliest songs. I wrote this around 13 years old. It's been recorded many many times, This version is as close as we ever got to getting it right. We recorded the drum to this and many others around the time in Melbourne, Australia at the wonderful Sing Sing studios. The song was really brought to life by Chenzo Townsend's mix.

lyrics

LYRICS /

I might die for a hurricane
But my past puts me to shame
You couldn't see what you could have been
But you couldn't dream your enemies 

So wait for a light to shine you
And set your shadows free from your soul

I might live forever, but I sure won't anyone
Cos your hurricane is beautiful 
And your life will shine again

So wait for a light to shine you
And set your shadows free from your soul

They can't tell you what to write
In your head, there's a lifetime that you never had
And in my life, I'd sacrifice just one smile for the heartache that I never had

So wait for a light to shine you
And set your shadows free from your soul

I might live forever, but I sure won't anyone like you
Cos your hurricane is beautiful 
And your life will shine again

So wait for a light to shine you
And set your shadows free from your soul

They can't tell you what to write
In your head, there's a lifetime that you never had
And in my life, I'd sacrifice just one smile for the heartache that I never had

They can't tell you what to write
In your head, there's a lifetime that you never
And in my life, I'd sacrifice just one smile for the heartache that I never had

So wait for a light to shine you
And set your shadows free from your soul
