about

Written during the Black Summer bushfires, a little attempt to find hope in little things.

lyrics

Out of your hands
Out of your control
Easier now to pack it up and fold

Hard this way
Trying to stay warm with a
Heart out and open to the cold

Staying inside all day to watch
Everything living thing outside me die
Drinking every night to stop myself from crying

How do we rebuild?
How do move on?
How do we give back a land that’s gone?

Nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
How do you return the world to new?

But a little bit of hope I read today
A way to make lasting change
Is healing what we can within our reach

And some things worth remembering
leaves have grown from burnt out trees
A little bit of rain had fallen in the east

Out of my hands
Out of my control
Stay inside and lock the door

Or fight for life
For the next
And a tiny life to press against my chest

Tomorrow we’ll be marching me and you
The country will be marching too
Your cousin had a baby girl they named her Drew

I can’t wait to see my love
To hear you struggle with the lock
Decide it might be nice to sit outside
Another little thing to hold to get me by
