mum n dad n denny
saw the passing out parade
at pukkerpunial, it was a long march from cadets
the 6th betalion was the next to tour
and it was me who drew the card
we did cunundra and shole water b 4 we left
townsville lined the footpaths
as we marched down to the key,
this clipping from the paper shows
us young and strong and clean
and theres me
in slouch hat, SLR and greens
God help me
i was only 19
from bunktower riding chinnooks
to the dust of newwie dat
id been in and out of choppers now for months
we made our tins of home vb
and pinups on the lockers
and an agent oronge sunset in the scrub
and can u tell me doctor why
i still cant get to sleep
night times just a jungle dark
and a barking M16
whats this rash that comes and goes
can u tell me what it means
God help me
i was only 19
a 4 week operation
where any step could be your last
one on two legs
it was a war with in yourself
but u wouldnt let ya mates down
till they had u dusted off
so u closed ya eyes and
thought about something else
then some one yelled out contact
and th ebloke behind me swore
we booked in there for hours
then a God almighty raw
and Fraky kicked a mine
the day mankind kicked the moon
God help me
he was going home in june
i can still see frankee
drinking tinnies in the grand hotel
on a 36 hour rec leave in bunktown
and i can still see franky
laying in the jungle
till the morphine cam and killed the bloody row
the anzac legends didnt mention
mud and blood and tears
the stories that my father told me
never seemed quite real
i caught some peaces in my back
that i didnt even feel
God help me
i was only 19
and can u tell me doctor
why i still cant get to sleep
and why the channel 7 chopper
chills me to my feet
and whats this rash that comes and goes
can u tell me what it means
God help me
i was only 19

ill do one better..ill post the entire song
its called "my apocalypse" and its by escape the fate
theres a place that ive found as far as i can see this place lies within the depths of my dreams in a garden surrounded by fire and trees through the smoke a silhouette i can barely see there's a man with an axe standing in the rain looked me straight in my eyes this is what he had to say: never fall asleep you won't wake up destroy the guillotine before he does i walk with shadows you have to find a better way i walk with shadows the questions i will never say hiding from the gallows they keep me safe and sound so i walk with shadows the ways of burning down this house end transmission the satellites are down i need an earthquake to shake this pity off the ground just don't trust these liars at the door you have to find a better way kill the ones that have these answers for end transmission the satellites are down i need an earthquake to shake this pity off the ground all the vibrant colors i see and the shades that fill the grey pain the pain pain the pain pain the pain pain.

OMG YAY!!! A Lie fan!! i admire love love the track Lie! It grew to become into initially my renowned on his new CD yet I somewhat have provided that additionally fallen in love with: Heroes, Avalanche, everlasting, and Kiss on the Neck. Out of all those songs my renowned LINE with all of them mixed could be one from everlasting: "i understand he's residing in hell on a daily basis. So, I ask oh God is there by some skill for me to take his place? And while they are saying it is so touch flow I desire i will make it flow away." i admire David for all of the failings he has carried out for many cancers. My cousin who's amazingly close to to me has Leukemia and that i've got in no way heard a track lyrics that relating to me lots as that. it is strictly how i think so I merely fell in love with it.. everyone that is conscious somebody who has had maximum cancers won't be in a position to relate to that track like no different. merely remarkable!

Hi!
" .. Yesterday don't matter when it's gone ... "
"Nkose Sikelele Africa ... "
" ... and I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean. Or, Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene?"
" ... and all the roads that lead us there are winding .."
" .. everyone who's touched by sadness, sit down next to me"
" .... Venum canvanda maravinda ... "
" .. mum and dad are fightin', don't they ever stop?"
" the streets are full of sex and crime ..."
" ... and our friends are all aboard ..."
" ... daubed in doom in his tongue tombed room. We of the wind must rejoice and speak ..."
" ... deep in my heart, I do believe that we shall ..."
" ... along the road to come what may, over the hills and far away..."
" ... where the moon shines bright on Ben Lomond ..."
" ... those days are gone now and in the past they must remain ....... and sent him homeward, t' think again ..."
These are a few of my favourite songs ....
Good wishes.

Spare a heart, save your soul, don't drag your love across the coal. Find your feet, and your fortune can be told. Release, relax, let go. Hey, now, let's recover your soul.
(From Recover your soul - Elton John)

I was born to tell you I love you
If every simple song I wrote to you would take your breath away, I'd write it all.
If you remember the tune, it's all I can do. Just remember, I wrote it for you.
Sorry couldn't pick just one song
