After the war
You went away
I never left your side
I just lost my way
I'm feeling weak
My head is light
The Creole band
Plays through the night
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same
You're always there
Through all my thoughts
The night is dark
Our time is short
I can't explain
Why I stayed so long
You're all I know
All I ever want
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same
The colour drains
Rain falls from the sky
My leather coat
Keeps me dry
You start to speak
And then you pause
I have my price
And you have yours
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same
I can't escape
From my past
The last is first
And the first is last
Under the waves
No sound at all
The world is big
We are so small
We try to learn
We never change
You and me
We're still the same

The Painted Hearts have a sound that is like a cross between Bo Diddley and Lou Reed. One of the best bands I know. Great songs. Great sound - Konrad Lenz Konrad Lenz
The Wedded Bliss are a great band with a great songwriter/frontman in Randall Blair. His songs are honest, well crafted and touch a raw nerve. Fantastic stuff - Konrad Lenz Konrad Lenz
The Bodies, fronted by Liam McKahey from Ireland, are one of the best acts in Australia. I've seen these guys live and they're phenomenal. Liam's a first rate songwriter and this record is great. Konrad Lenz
