Stray cats with fish heads


Feeding their litters

Feral kids fight over rats


Tailed from gutters




Bookie mouth brokers


Rotten fruit sellers


Pickpockets

Ghost through the crowd





He climbs onto boxes

By market stall traders


Toothless and gray haired


Thousand yard stare




He had a vision


Which broke the receiver

Receiving transmission


Surface to air




Either way, I'm in awe of you


Either way, we'll survive, we'll survive




Conjuring devils


Angels and demons


Only the children

See shape to his tone





Laughing and crying

His song fell upon us


We buried his treasure


Along with the bones




Arms held aloft


A Y to the sky

Innocent witness


He testified




Drained of his purpose

He falls off the quayside


Absorbed by the ocean

Rolled by the tide




Either way, I'm in awe of you

Either way, we'll survive


Either way, I'm in awe of you

Either way, we'll survive


We'll survive



Under the power lines


Which crackle and sparkle

Under the freeway

Now, mostly rubble




The hungry still gather

To fill up with stories

Of monsters and heroes and men


Under the stars



Which prick us and call us

Connect us to hope


That perfection's within is

Here on the ground




We're reckless and hopeless

Damned by the slip of a pen

Rambling poets

Manic with vision




We are the drivers

Yet we feel driven

Moths in the moonlight

Fooled by a flashlight



Caught in a jam jar

Gasping for air

Rambling poets

Manic with vision



We are the drivers

Yet we feel driven

Moths in the moonlight

Fooled by a flashlight



Caught in a jam jar

Gasping for air



Either way, I'm in awe of you

Either way, we'll survive

We'll survive
