I see you looking
Looking for somewhere to go
I see you searching
But I already know
You wont stay here
We can’t keep you
There’s too much
Out there for you to do
I see you looking searching moving leaving driving riding flying away
I see you looking searching moving leaving driving riding flying away
because
You’re going places
You’re going places
We‘ve never seen before
You’re going places
You’ll see their faces
You should take me with you
TAKE ME WITH YOU
You gotta keep moving
Keep on moving on
With you its like breathing
Living in your own song
Its part of your make up
it s what makes you who you are
One of the reasons
we know that you’re a star
I see you looking searching moving leaving driving riding flying away
I see you looking searching moving leaving driving riding flying away
because
You’re going places
You’re going places
We ‘ve never seen before
You’re going places
You’ll see their faces
Well you should take me with you
Take ME WITH YOU

Life comes along
And it throws you a curve
What do we do
Do we get what we deserve
Where do I go
And how do I learn
Will it present me
With everything that I yearn?
Is it fair
The way it all works out
Some get it all
Some just scream and shout
Is it unknown
Will I get there?
When I’m all grown
What if it's all unfair?
Where do you turn?
When we all burn
Who’ll save me now
How do I get out?
We’ll figure it out
Everything’s hard and
Everything's cheap
I need more rest
I just want to go to sleep
Some fight for money
Some fight to eat
Some fight for rights
That really should be free
The struggle is real
And its hard to deal
Hands to them all
It feels like a steal
Each on their own
And each for themself
Quick grab someone
Don’t be left on the shelf
Where do you turn?
When we all burn
Who’ll save me now
How do I get out?
We’ll figure it out
We’ll figure it out
Thats life
Is figuring out.
Life, we’ll figure it out.
Where do you turn?
When we all burn
Who’ll save me now
How do I get out?
We’ll figure it out

Charmed

Haven't you led such a charmed life?
Stayed at the same schools
You never broke the rules
Had your friends since you were four
Dad didn't walk out of the door
Haven't you led such a charmed life?
High school sweetheart didn't cheat
You’ve always had plenty to eat
Your house is very well kept
For dead friends You've never wept
Haven’t you led, such a charmed life?
But what's it like to never know
Just how far it is you'll go
How much more that you can take
Nothing on earth will make you break
To experience is to bruise
These lessons that I didn't choose
They made me who I am today
This strength is here, to stay
You can keep your little charmed life
As you peek out the window
At the things you’ll never know
All the people you won’t meet
Ones you used to call a freak
You can stay a little charmed wife
Make sure that you stay fit
Show just the right amount of wit
Be the mother they all need
Just remember, remember, remember to breathe…
You can stay a little charmed wife
But what's it like to never know
Just how far it is you'll go
How much more that you can take
Nothing on earth will make you break
To experience is to bruise
These lessons that I didn't choose
They made me who I am today
This strength is here, to stay
Are you happy with your charmed life?
Watching as your hair turns grey
Plodding through another day
Wondering how much you have lost
Being charmed comes at a cost
Are you happy with your charmed life?
Now the kids are all long gone
Even hubby has moved on
Gave them everything you had
Now you’re here just feeling sad
Well don't forget that you led your charmed life!
Don’t forget you had a charmed life
Aren’t you glad you had a charmed life
Everyone wants a charmed life
Keep looking for that charmed life

I can’t help but feel, that we’re not alright
I can’t help but see, that you’re out all night
What is it you seek, when you don’t come home
Why is it when I’m with you….I feel more alone?
Is there more I could do?
Why can’t I break through
Is it me, is it you?
Descend into Blue
Though you’re standing near, you feel far away
I know I cannot leave you, yet I cannot stay
I think I’m going crazy, out of my mind
Imagining that each day…. you’ll leave me behind
Is there more I could do?
Why can’t I break through
Is it me is it you?
Descend into Blue
What if I could stop you, from leaving again
What if I could keep you, here till the end
What if I just held you, all the night through
I tell you now there’s nothing…. that I won’t do
It’s the least I could do
To finally break through
Gift from me and to you
Your decent into Blue
Descend into Black
We need never come back
I descend into blue
I did this for you.
I did this for you
I did this for you
I did this for you
Our descent into Blue.

Sonica Perth, Australia
Often compared with artists such as Siouxsie and the Banshees, Cocteau Twins and Kate Bush, Perth band Sonica's retro-alternative sound traverses the boundaries of dreampop and shoegaze...
