Play My Game 03:11
Spent my life living out on the streets Living it seems by living the dream Take my money and you take my soul Taking it all for rock ‘n roll Hey, You, Come On – Play my game Hey, You, Come On – Play my game Tied my lace and I tied my fate Chasing that need before it’s too late Ain’t no punching no nine to five I’m running along on a switchblade knife Hey, You, Come On – Play my game Hey, You, Come On – Play my game Hey, You, Come On – Play my game Hey, You, Come On – Play my game
8.
Hey, I’m wondering where you are tonight What became of you In the light of the stars Can you hear me call your name Out there running on too long Holding on to you I cried and cried through the endless nights Just to hear your voice Your name still haunts me till’ the day that I die I can never love again I put a million miles on my heart I’ve run a thousand miles across the ocean for you Just to hear you call my name Again My life it seems so complicated No judgement free from the heartache and pain Feeling worthless in mine I put a million miles on my heart I’ve run a thousand miles across the ocean for you Just to hear you call my name I put a million miles on my heart I’ve run a thousand miles across the ocean for you Just to hear you call my name Again I put a million miles on my heart I’ve run a thousand miles across the ocean for you Just to hear you call my name Again

I tried and tried But still it swallows It seeks my hate but gives it love Not quite dead but still alive In frozen veins it seeks my soul I tried a lifetime but still I found These things inside, they scream and shout I tried a lifetime and now I found This thing that’s me ain’t me Now time and time It crawls from shadows Oh no way out and nowhere to run Don’t you know it’s just begun All barred you know your mine I tried a lifetime but still I found These things inside, they scream and shout I tried a lifetime and now I found This thing that’s me ain’t me I tried a lifetime but still I found These things inside, they scream and shout I tried a lifetime and now I found This thing that’s me ain’t me I tried a lifetime These things inside I tried a lifetime These things inside This thing that’s me ain’t me

Magic Man 04:51
Looking out Over the horizon and all I see is you Staring down These four walls around me and all I want is truth I'm going south for the fever in my bones to drown out Put your head back down and leave the noise behind and climb out Cuz I'm done with this self-doubt Knowing Now The stories I've been told and all I know is you Shaking now This fevers got control and all I want is truth I'm going south for the fever in my bones to drown out Put your head back down and leave the noise behind and climb out Cuz I'm done with this self-doubt I'm going south for the fever in my bones to drown out Put your head back down and leave the noise behind and climb out Cuz I'm done with this self-doubt

Recently expanding into global territories, the band has won numerous awards for best EP of the year (Banks Radio Australia), and best single of the year twice consecutive (Banks Radio Australia) for their hit song “Backseat Lover” , among numerous other awards.

The band continues to push their music on a global scale as a European tour and US tour is in the works for the future.
