First Things First lyrics - Matt Corby

[from "Spirit of Akasha" soundtrack]

(originally by Tamam Shud)

First things first
I find a place
A nice big piece of grass
Sit right down and think about
The other side of town
Oh ain't you glad you been living 'round here
Ain't you glad that you're free
Oh is all good to know you got a friend
That will help you out til the very end of time
Your mind's alive with crawly things that go
Runnin' round your mind
They tell you when right or wrong
And they keep you from goin' insane
Oh baby ain't you glad you been livin' round here
Ain't you glad that your free yeah
Oh it's all good to know you got a friend that will
Help you out til the very end of time
Oh do you see what I mean
There's always someone there to disagree
Oh I was sittin' on that nice green grass
Thoughts goin' through my mind
I'm thinkin' about cutting it fine
And sing a little song and praying for it all
Ain't you glad you been livin' round here
Ain't you glad that your free
It's so good that you got a friend that will
Help you out til the very end

Lighthome lyrics - Matt Corby

The light of home
Burned out and dark now
You held me captive
The thief that takes it all, from me
A love not to return

Still daylight comes back
But you stay silent
The books you're buried in
Blind your tale
Walk on my dear
Stand firm
Don't you show your face

The light of home
Burned out and dark now
You held me captive
A thief who takes it all, and no more

Light of home
Oh oh
I feel like I'm falling I've just got
To close my eyes and I'm looking for something
To recognize

The light of home
Burned out and dark now
You held me captive
The thief that takes it all
No more
A love not to return
Light of home

Lonely Souls lyrics - Matt Corby

Don’t go
Don’t leave me here
Cos your mind, keeps my mind clear
And I can’t relearn
What you taught me dear

Don’t leave
I swear I’ll be good
I swear I’ll always do
What you say I should

And I can’t return
No I won’t return
To the place that I stood yeah
Back in the darkened wood

Lonely souls that hide their futures from their pasts
Find that they can’t move on
But stay still in time till
They are reconciled
Oh with one another
Then they’ll move on
Oh move right along

Don’t leave
I swear I’ll be good
I swear I’ll always do
What you, what you say I should

And I won’t return
I won’t return
To that place I stood

My False lyrics - Matt Corby

You see I don't know where I'm running to,
It's become quite hard to see.
Theres a guilty weight on my conscience,
Of all my wrongful deeds.

It's time-ii-iime to reconcile.
It's time-ii-iime to reconcile.

Oh if I walk into the darkness I'll be lost.
If I try to stay the light will show my false.

I will keep my head in the sand, dear.
Let the grains block out the sun.
It's shame is my companion,
It will stay close til I'm done.

It's time-ii-iime to reconcile.
It's time-ii-iime to reconcile.

Oh if I walk into the darkness I'll be lost.
If I try to stay the light will show my false.

[Instrumental]

If I walk into the darkness I'll be lost.
If I try to stay the light will show my false.
If I walk into the darkness I'll be lost.
If I try to stay the light will show my false.

Runaway lyrics - Matt Corby

She speaks like the rain,
But she howls at the moon.
She runs like the sun in the winter,
She's not coming home soon.
She follows the rain,
She runs like the water.
She revels in all his pain,
She hits like her father

She speaks like she wants,
Words dripping with disdain
She tells you she loves another,
But she keeps you in awe, keeps you insane.

'Cause she don't give a shit about you,
She will let you run away,
So just run away, run away
No she don't give a shit about you,
She will let you run away,
So just run away
No she don't give a fucking shit about you,
She will let you run away,
So just run away.
No, she don't give a shit about you,
She will let you run away,
So just run away
