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
