I've got miles up ahead, with nothing but my thoughts The radio's gone M.I.A Sometimes there's just nothing like, a long drive to feel alright Better than any therapy The dusk comes creeping overhead And the headlights dance among the red The daylight's conceding, the moon is revealing An endless ceiling above, like billion specks of dust The stars light up the sky An outback lullaby, lullaby I'm settling the dust as the wheels roll to a stop Silence weaves a melody I'm here on my own, It's strange but I don't feel alone Got a universe for company And it's times like this I open up my ears And I fall in love 50 thousand years Where echos still roam, and footprints still linger And stories I thought were a dream, they're right in front of me As the land begins to sigh An outback lullaby, lullaby What if all the world could see me now soaking up the last of the heat, lying on the ground I'll always remember this, when the city smoke gets back in my eyes The moment I lost myself to the night sky An outback lullaby, lullaby Lullaby, lullaby

A sense of relief washed over me When you finally whispered goodbye And the blame fell to you, not I The anger and pain stung me again As the bandages fell to the floor These scars weren't there before You tore me down One piece at a time, so I'd fall in line Guess the warning's true You leave a blaze of destruction behind you Blinded by faith in the plans that we made I wouldn't believe them all That even the gods can fall Now I'm fighting infernos with buckets and blankets And no hope of winning this game Smoke me out, scorch the ground, fanning your our flames You tore me down One piece at a time, so I'd fall in line Guess the warning's true You leave a blaze of destruction behind you And after the ashes escape from my lungs I'll breathe in the wisdom from getting it wrong You tore me down You tore me down You tore me down One piece at a time, so I'd fall in line Guess the warning's true You leave a blaze of destruction behind you You tore me down One piece at a time, so I'd fall in line Guess the warning's true You leave a blaze of destruction behind you You leave a blaze of destruction behind you

This is just one of those stepping stone jobs Not something I'm too proud of And none of us here are planning to stay Though Chris has been here seven years today And this is just one of those stepping stone towns I'm not thinking of settling down And everyone says I'll never leave But one more year and I might scream Oh, oh This is just one of those stepping stone days I'm putting in time til I get my way And no one ever thinks I'll get too far But look at them here sitting in this bar And this is just one of those stepping stone dreams I'm building up to better things First thing I need is to get away Then I'll change the world someday Oh, oh And sometimes you feel, sometimes you feel like crying And sometimes you feel, sometimes you feel like dying And sometimes you feel, sometimes you feel like trying This is just one of those stepping stone things I'm not waiting for the wind to break I'll fight my way out with each mistake Oh, oh And sometimes you feel, sometimes you feel like crying And sometimes you feel, sometimes you feel like dying And sometimes you feel, sometimes you feel like trying This is just one of those stepping stone things Yeah this is just one of those stepping stone things

Caught between deception and a smile You got your share of demons so do I But like you've done a thousand times You raise your mask to hide your crimes Picture perfect pretence in your eyes Couldn't make a mistake, wanna make a heart break It's written in your alibi and You sing it to me, line for line So soon, the strangers eating side by side the truth Only hurts once Guess you thought I couldn't see Your wheel of fortune's spinning less for me Slide a hand and I'll slide mine Misdirection, colour blind Count the coins and wager carefully Couldn't make a mistake, wanna make a heart break It's written in your alibi and You sing it to me, line for line So soon, the strangers eating side by side the truth Only hurts once You show your hand once I take a step once No second chance, you'll ever see my face again Ooh-ooh-ooh It's written in your alibi And you sing it to me, line for line So soon, the strangers eating side by side the truth Only hurts the truth Only hurts the truth Only hurts once (Ooh, written in your alibi) (Ooh, written in your alibi) (Ooh, written in your alibi)
