about

This track was inspired by my time on the farm in South Australia. I believe Olly named this one. We very nearly didn't record it as it was often referred to as the poofy song.

lyrics

Stripped down
Slightly out of touch with everyone
Later on a side of me I can't believe is gone
Has carried on.

It's hard feel the same love
When you can't even share the same pain
And there's things I think you'll never know
It's too hard for me to explain (x2)

Let her change
Separate the burden from the load
And let it go
Straight out or staring at the ground
I could not be lost here
Just happy now, happy now

It's hard feel the same love
When you can't even share the same pain
And there's things I think you'll never know
It's too hard for me to explain (x2)

Sometimes it's working forever
But we're braking the lines the wrong way
If only those eyes could never
See what we only do some days, some days

Well it's hard feel the same love
When you can't even share the same pain
And there's things I think you'll never know
It's too hard for me to explain (x2)
