lyrics

Wherever you end up, I will not be shaken
Not gonna lose your scent
Even for a second
I’d heard you’d broken up
They said you’d broken down

Another party
You cannot move and sure has hell can’t leave
And being there is somehow like anywhere at all
I’m dressed to the eights, dressed to the nines
You think the tens are other men

All the moths to light and the hounds at bay
Wait for land to slide, every shot that strays
In a life too short there are nights too long
An impatient walk turns into a run

The chosen chanters start changing colour and turning white
But you won’t notice a thing, so blinded by the footlights
The circling sharks and cars have kamikaze dreams for you
You will them to, in all you
But that’s about to change
You can’t stem the flood
Now I’m out for blood

All the moths to light and the hounds at bay
Wait for land to slide, every shot that strays
In a life too short there are nights too long
An impatient walk turns into a run

There is one straight line in a world this bent
To stay water-tight when the night gets loose
All the shots are fired and the dudes are spent
Then the big game starts as the small one ends.

about

tobias hengeveld Melbourne, Australia

Tobias Hengeveld writes melodically vivid songs, riddled with unexpected angular pop-hooks. His distinctively sylvan voice tells personal experiences with wry lyrical candor.

The Daylight Express was nominated for an Age Music Victoria Award in 2014.

Due in April 2019, NAUGHTS & ONES is a triumphant mirror-maze of jubilant pop tunes set in a hinterland of darker rock ballads.
