We left for the hills in June and time has been still since then
I look out across the tallest hills and I cannot see the sun
We met at a bar in summer cause' that's the place i like to meet
The candles sway in ballet style but I can not see your eyes
It's a sign of the times
Were not alright, alright?
The constant fight for happiness
The constant switch of mood
I arrived at a tunnel in New South Wales carved into a hill
And I'm not even sure why I bought that up because I'm surely not there still
Though I wish you'd have seen it
The wind on that journey was warm
From your touch again I was torn
Swept of my path like wood chips by some kind of push to be reborn
It's a sign of the times
Were not alright, alright?
The constant fight for happiness
The constant switch of mood
We left for the moon in Julune to find a special grain of sand
So I hopped in the car and I drove and I drove but I could not resist going home
There's a lot to be said about turning back
Slipping back down that same old comfort crack
I drifted off to sleep first thing last Monday
Stuck inside a sex dream
And I hope I wake up happy
