In the age when the loudest voices win Words are now worth less than silence In these days of so much suffering It's the punch you don't see coming, starts the violence We could hear the shoreline pounding in the distance For a moment, we were free Then the sons of white Australia came with guns And pushed us back to sea We were lost at sea We were lost at sea, wondering where the world could be Well, the power of the sea can move your soul Eventually, it takes control We were in the ocean drifting, started listing Then the boat began to roll And the coastline rose in front of us Each one of us was moved to pray or yell Then the sons of white Australia came with guns And took us to an island hell Lost at sea, lost at sea We were lost at sea (lost at sea) We were lost at sea (lost at sea) We were lost at sea (lost at sea) Wondering where the world could be (world could be) Wondering where the world could be (world could be) We were lost at sea Are the ghosts of white Australia still among us? Are the ghosts of white Australia still around us? Are the ghosts of white Australia in our boardrooms In our bedrooms, in our chambers and our churches In the cities and the deserts that surround us? We gotta breathe out there In the wild salt air And the storms rose high And it raged all night Lost at sea, lost at sea We were lost at sea (lost at sea) We were lost at sea (lost at sea) We were lost at sea (lost at sea) Wondering where the world could be (world could be) Wondering where the world could be (world could be) I wonder where the world could be? (World could be) Where that world could be When you're lost, when you're lost When you're lost, when you're lost When you're lost When you're lost, when you're lost When you're lost, when you're lost When you're lost

Cut back, rewind, gotta play the replay in my mind It's a little fuzzy but I think I can make it out Look it's me standing there with my diary Hiding the evidence that I wrote down in period three Could this be the moment that I have been dreaming about? But then she's there too in pink and blue I guess all the starts align for you And I'll take all my heart break and swallow it down They can never find out All my life I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you "I'll never love again" That's what I said When I ran home and told my Mum in 1997 I still remember the look on her face She said "Boys like that should be in 2nd place I know it hurts right now one day you'll realize There's no need to hide yourself from the world" I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you (no, no, no) Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you (no, no, no) There's no need to hide Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you (no, no, no) There's no need to hide Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you There's no need to hide All my life I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you (there's no need to hide) Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you (there's no need to hide) Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you (there's no need to hide) Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you (there's no need to hide) All my life I've been hiding myself Just waiting for a boy like you (boy, boy, boy) Running home from the bus stop crying Over stupid words from boys like you (boy, boy, boy) Not answering the questions in Math class 'Cause I answer then before boys like you (boy, boy, boy) Promise myself when I'm older and brave I will never love a boy like you (boy, boy, boy, boy...)
