about
let’s call it a love song about getting stuck in your own personal bushfires, something like that. It took us ages to record this one, went through a number of attempts, but this is what we ended up happy with. One chord, all the way baby.
Enjoy, and remember to always have two ways out…
lyrics
I see smoke it rises,
Some nights it stick to your eyes
I see a boat on the horizon
But the horizon ain’t the horizon
I sit down by where the bridge fell
We’ll not get back across the river
Ash draining on the flowers
Thee marauders they will not wish you well
CB says kids they could be burned in
Now we’ve lost all wi-fi
The stars a message and a sender
But we cannot see the drowner for the lifelines
These are prescribed burns
How you gonna handle it?
It hits you as the world turns
Ease your cold heart
You’re all shaky lady
Black sheep got hold of your goat?
The earth’s as dark as our armpit
And I think I’m gonna sell the boat
Smoke ghosts out on the highway
I smart and lean and take hold of your hand
You’re a diamond in the rough babe
An ancient coca-cola bottle melted in the sand
These are prescribed burns
How you gonna handle it?
It hits you as the world turns
Ease your cold heart
Now we pass across the border,
Is something gonna save our skin?
Wet your roof for marauders
The kids they lit it where the town bends in
These are prescribed burns
How you gonna handle it?
It hits you as the world turns
Leaves you cold-hearted

Love the metal tracks on this album, but also lots of other sonic explorations. Static electricity, East West Link also fantastic. Thanks to KGLW for this! Michael B
