All Your Promises

All your promises
They feel meaningless
All that stress
I need to go
I need to go
I need to go
Far away from you
Where I start anew
Where my mind can heal
From how you made me feel
Not knowing what is real
No more
I have brekkie with Becky
And maybe I can be healed
I’m growing into something
Something new that I like more
We had good times too
And not just a few
Love and laughter
Night and day
Just me and you
All your promises
They feel meaningless
All that stress
I need to go
I need to go
I need to go
Far away from you
Where I start anew
Where my mind can heal
From how you made me feel
Not knowing what is real
No more

Making Memories

the party’s going on
but we get on
our bikes
for a long ride
from karrinyup to kings park
cuz tonight
there’s fireworks not in me
but outside
what you want
is not what you need
cuz what you need is
what’s happening right now
and there is beauty all around us
but it might take time to reveal
look for good not bad
and you will be glad
all those memories
priceless
riding on a path
we’ve never been
through a place
we’ve never seen
a different world
right next to the highway
where no one else is
wandering this day
what you want
is not what you need
cuz what you need is
what’s happening right now
and there is beauty all around us
but it might take time to reveal
look for good not bad
and you will be glad
all those memories
priceless
every minute every hour
seems mundane but it is not
every minute every hour
making memories
every minute every hour
seems mundane but it is not
every minute every hour
making memories

indie pop
it is joy, empathy, warmth and fun
imperfection, respect, dorky, weird and
quite unique, like you and everyone
all the good songs may only be good to you
all the great songs may just be great to you
all the bad songs may only be bad to you
there is no need to hate just skip a tune
you don‘t like a song?
then just move on with your life
dont hate all the things
you dont understand
when everything was
so much better in the past
maybe you‘re like me
selective/fading memory
all the good songs may only be good to you
all the great songs may just be great to you
all the bad songs may only be bad to you
there is no need to hate just skip a tune
indie pop is not great but it is good (so good)
it is not perfect but somehow it is
indie pop is not great it was never (ever)
it is not great it is something better

I Love Perth
01:09

Everyone is carrying on in this house
Afraid to move back there, I can't even watch
The things you do and the people you know
A groovy scene in Australia, I will move
Take my surfboard, maybe I'll groove
Noise addicts and other folks, oh yeah
Our hearts were blanketed with it all
And then I took off the blanket and saw
The pretty shawl you bought for me
You're gorgeous, I'm pretty handsome too
We make a pair, me and you
Me and you forever on and on and on and on
Me and you forever, ever on

The Kind Hills

the kind hills
our secret haven
the kind hills
calm rolling green fields
and a tranquillity that appeals
and place where she winds down and feels
no sorrows
no scrolling through a feed
we lock away all rage
sadness and doubts and greed
we have some books to read instead
go for a walk to clear the head
a short time-out
from life
the kind hills
your secret hideaway
where you re-charge when everything’s grey
no sorrows
no scrolling through a feed
we lock away all rage
sadness and doubts and greed
we have some books to read instead
go for a walk to clear the head
a short time-out
from life

Impostor Syndrome

Oh dear fear
you arrived knocking at my door
Like an old friend you've come
Back for more
I haven't seen
you all day but now you're here
Stopping me from stepping
into the unknown
You whisper doubts in my ear
While all my courage disappears
Oh no
But it's okay
I'll find my way
As long as you are my
light of day
Where comfort whispers
by my side
everything's gonna
be alright
alright
In the quiet of night
you steal my sleep
Reminding me of secrets that
I can't keep
You weave your lies
so sincere
And all my confidence
turns to tears
But it's okay
I'll find my way
As long as you are my
light of day
Where comfort whispers
by my side
everything's gonna
be alright
alright
It’s okay
In the light of day
By my side
Everything’s gonna be alright
Alright

i was learning, through the whole night
now im tired but im feeling dynamite
right until i find out i failed the exam
did i spend, my time right?
whatever i do i do it wrong
give me one more chance
dance dance dance every night, everyday
like theres no tomorrow
dance dance dance ever night
and forget all the pain and sorrow
dance dance dance….
and i work hard, and i mean well
and everyday i start being full of hope
but eventually the day turns into hell
but i smile, and i cope
when i feel lost and nothing’s quite right
i just need some light
dance dance dance every night, everyday
like theres no tomorrow
dance dance dance ever night
and forget all the pain and sorrow
dance dance dance….
at the end of every day
i go dancing and everything is okay
dance dance dance every night, everyday
like theres no tomorrow
dance dance dance ever night
and forget all the pain and sorrow
dance dance dance….

Every day is about you so what can I do?
If you're blind and can't see what you have with me
I don't wanna hold on to dreams that might be
I don't wanna go on if it's time to be free
There is no time I've let you down I'm there when you need
But it feels so one sided and getting heavy
I don't wanna hold on to dreams that might be
I don't wanna go on if it's time to be free
tastefully we drown from blue to black we sparkle out
pebbled hints become miscarried hearts from which we run
I understand we all go through times we are in need
But your time is all the time and I might as well leave
I understand we all go through times we are in need
But your time is all the time and I might as well leave
I know you mean well but you're lost inside
A labyrinth neglecting anyone outside your mind
I don't wanna hold on to dreams that might be
I don't wanna go on if it's time to be free

Seaside

I’m at the seaside
A beautiful view
Salt in the air and
The water bright blue
I’m at the seaside
My eyes on the phone
Flipping through products
I should maybe own
I’m always looking at my telephone
Life without it is monotone, it is
I miss beauty
Things around me
& my own life too
After I wake up
I stare at my phone
So many friends there
I’m never alone
I’m always looking at my telephone
Life without it is monotone
Life without it is, unknown

Young And Dumb
03:32

riding north to see another gig or two
together me and you
can’t remember all the tunes we heard and sang
practising Aussie slang
i was the driver and you were the dj
we told each other old stories from far away
far away
far way
can you remember how we used to feel
in the town where it never rains
feelings and music were much more intense
it was all freedom and no chains
we were young and we were
dumb just the right amount
humming jebediah on the way back home
to the budget hotel
low on life experience but very high
we were on confidence
can you remember how we used to feel
in the town where it never rains
feelings and music were much more intense
it was all freedom and no chains
we were young and we were
dumb just the right amount
all the stupid things we did we did them as a team
every moment worth a million bucks life was a dream
far away
far away
far away
far away
can you remember our first kiss right there
at the pool of the old hotel
you were the center of my universe
and the future a bright stairwell
we were young and we were
dumb just the right amount

she works too much
every night late
when she comes home
I say ‘I already ate’
I try to help
keep the home clean
but then I always
fail cuz I am not keen
I need a holiday
not quite soon but right away
right now, right now
gonna go, right now
holiday
I need a holiday
not quite soon but right away
right now, right now

I need a holiday
not quite soon but right away
right now, right now
gonna go, right now

I need a holiday
not quite soon but right away
right now, right now
gonna go, right now
hideaway
finally responsibilities they wash away
chilling at the beach with cabernet
I try to call
can’t find food at all
washing machine
seems broke, where is my football?
I need my holiday
at the beach with cabernet
right now, right now
where I am, right now
holiday

I don’t understand
I don’t understand
half the things you say
I do it my way
I don’t understand
I don’t understand
why you say it’s wrong
this is just my way
I don’t feel alright
maybe you were right
I ate way too much

I needed the salt
this isn’t my fault
bite after bite

I don’t understand

why you’re mad at me
when I drink VB

I am barely drunk
just give me a hand
I don’t feel alright

I ate way too much

The Kind Hills Brisbane, Australia
Home in Brisbane, Perth, Lucerne, London, LA and Hong Kong, this international band of slackers plays laid-back, sleepy indie pop.
The Kind Hills recommends:
The Unbearable Loudness Of Stupidity
by Seasonal Falls
As laid-back and relaxing as the kind hills, just a bit less poppy and a bit more folk-rocky.

A real grower. Fantastic album from my home turf. As if TFC took the Bowie trip to Berlin

Air and Sunlight
by The Radio Field
supported by 68 fans who also own “Little Epiphanies”
"In my ears, there is a lot of Brit sound here, from Blur to The Smiths, and it also reminded me of bands like R.E.M. in some parts. Apparently, I wasn’t that far off, as these are all bands relevant to the genre, but there are also elements of post-punk here, as well as a general ‘college rock’ vibe." https://start-track.com/album-the-radio-field-air-and-sunlight/

Just like the title says, this charming pop confection from the New Jersey three-piece skips from jangly high to high on their new EP.
