[Verse 1]
Here we go, on the arc of the high and the low
The tipping point of the to and the fro
Though the seed blossoms slow
It is now as it was long ago
You reap what you sow
And the wind still blows, the fire still burns
And the water still flows
Buried in the earth where the life still grows
Heart still knows, and it tell you where to go
I crossed over mountains, sat above the plains
Couldn't shake the feeling that I’m part of something strange
Off white glazed eyes under my shades
Embrace the chaos and leave it up to fate
Buildings suffocate the sky and hide it from me
The land stretches flat for as far as the eye can see
Lines run deep, from the ancient dust of the red centre
Grey pavement of the inner city trendsetters
[Pre-Chorus]
The newest era of the human error
And the water still flows, the wind still blows
The life still grows
Said the water still flows, the wind still blows
The life still grows, the heart still knows
Still flows
And on and on it goes
[Chorus]
While the world conspires we try to read the omens
See the form take shape as power changes hands
It's the human era made of fleeting moments
As the rock breaks down it slowly turns to sand
[Verse 2]
So we figure-eight just going through the motions
Snap shots coming in and out of focus
The Mayans, Aztecs and the Romans
Each seized their moment to bear the onus
What's spanned across time and places
Gets left behind in faint traces
From throughout the ages, the sands of time shift
As we drift just looking for that oasis
[Refrain]
The rise and fall of all things big and small
We sit poised in the middle of it all
The rise and fall of all things big and small
We sit poised in the middle of it all
The rise and fall of all things big and small
We sit poised in the middle of it all
The rise and fall of all things big and small
We sit poised in the middle of it all
[Chorus]
While the world conspires we
Try to read the omens
We sit poised in the middle of it all
See the form take shape as
Power changes hands
We sit poised in the middle of it all
It’s the human era
Made of fleeting moments
We sit poised in the middle of it all
As the rock breaks down it
Slowly turns to sand
[Spoken]
Good evening, Melbourne. Good to see so many of you down here at the Listen Close Tour. On a Thursday night. We appreciate it, hope you're enjoyin' it so far, it's a little different, I know, you're sittin' down watchin' a hip hop gig. But just rock with it. Tonight we invite you to just suspend all that. Sit back in your chair. Take it all in. And listen close
