You're One Microscopic Cog In His Catastrophic

If You're Australian, You Feel It In Your Bones Because You're At Odds With Everybody Else, Except Other Australians, In The Sense That People Always Seem To Be Behaving Strangely. People Always Seem To Be Behaving The Wrong Way, In A Different Way. You Say Things And There Are Silences.

I've Always Done A Lot Of Research And Stuff Around The Songs That I Write So There Are Pages And Pages Of Writing And You Can Kind Of See These Songs Emerging.

It Was About The Preciousness Of That, And How They Viewed Those Birds As Art, As Something Valuable. I Didn't Care One Way Or Another Back Then, But Now, Thinking About My Grandparents - Who Are Still Alive But Getting Older - I See The Birds As Sort Of Time Capsules. Now I Go Home During The Holidays And They Hold A Lot Of Weight In Terms Of Nostalgia And Memory. Now They Mean Everything.

I Don't Like Those Songs Where You Have To Listen To A Story To Get Into Them. I Don't Want To Have To Pay Attention To Music In That Way, I Just Want It To Hit Me In The Heart And Do What Music's Supposed To Do.

My Music Has To Do With Beauty, And It's Intended To, If Not Lift The Spirits, Then Be A Kind Of A Balm To The Spirits.
