TROUBLE FINDS ITS WAY
I THOUGHT YOU’D REMEMBER ME
NOW THAT WE’RE JUST ENEMIES
YOU’VE BEEN PEERING IN MY ROOM
THOUGHT BY NOW YOU’D FIND A CLUE
I THOUGHT I HAD DONE MY TIME
STUCK THE KNIFE RIGHT IN MY SIDE
TELL ME WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE DONE
WHILE I WATCH YOU LOAD THE GUN
IS IT JUST EASIER FOR YOU
WHEN YOU DON’T NEED TO FIND THE PROOF
I GUESS I’D STILL LIKE TO KNOW THE TRUTH
(BRIDGE)
WHAT HAS THIS BECOME
FEAR CAN THIN THE BLOOD
IT’S NOT OVER TILL IT’S DONE
I THOUGHT WE COULD MAKE A BREAK
TURN THE CORNER, TURN THE PAGE
I STILL FEEL THIS PHANTOM PAIN
EVERY TIME YOU TAKE THE REIGNS
THERE’S A PRICE TO WALK AWAY
BUT IT’S DEATH TO TRY AND STAY
(YOU) WALK THE PATH WITH HEAVY BOOTS
WHEN TROUBLE FINDS ITS WAY TO YOU
IS IT JUST EASIER FOR YOU
WHEN YOU DON’T NEED TO FIND THE PROOF
I GUESS I’D STILL LIKE TO KNOW THE TRUTH
I GUESS I’M JUST TRYING NOT TO LOSE

MAGNETIC LIVES
DRAG YOUR FEET THROUGH AN ENDLESS DAY
RUNNING WILD AS YOU LOST THE TRAIL
FOUND A PLACE TO ERASE YOUR NAME
TRADE THE PAST FOR A HIGHER STATE
PACK YOUR BAGS WHEN THE EVENING COMES
MAKING BEDS FOR THE LONELY ONES
FOUND YOURSELF IN THE SAFETY LANE
YOU WERE TRAPPED SO YOU HAD TO STAY
DON’T YOU KNOW, THESE ARE OUR MAGNETIC LIVES
ON YOUR OWN WITH THE CRUELTY AND THE CRIME
PLACE YOUR HEAD IN THE LION’S MOUTH
ONCE IT’S IN IT AIN’T COMING OUT
FEEDING CRACKS JUST TO KEEP THE BEAT
LEFT YOU STARVED FOR SOME PLACE TO EAT
CHORUS
PIECE YOURSELF TOGETHER
THIS COULD TAKE A WHILE
FATE HAS LEFT YOU STRANDED
WHEN SHE CHANGED HER MIND
TAKE A WALK IN THE LION’S DEN
THAT’S A BET YOU CAN NEVER WIN
LIKE A BIRD WITH A BROKEN WING
NEVER FLIES BUT SHE SURE CAN SING

COMIN' BACK FOR YOU
I’LL NEVER RIDE THIS TRAIN AGAIN
I’LL NEVER RIDE THIS TRAIN AGAIN
THESE TRACKS BLED OUT FROM BORROWED VEINS
THE WHEELS KEEP GRINDING DOWN THE STAINS
AND IT’LL TAKE MORE THAN ONE STITCH TO MEND
BUT IF THIS TRAIN DON’T MAKE IT THROUGH
I’M STILL COMING BACK FOR YOU
I DON’T CARE WHERE YOU THINK I’VE BEEN
I’LL NEVER RIDE THIS WAY AGAIN
I’M STILL A LOWBREED IN THIS TOWN
I’M WAY OFF COURSE AND BEATEN DOWN
AND WHO CAN SAY WHAT’S LURKIN’ ROUND THE BEND
BUT IF THIS TRAIN DON’T MAKE IT THROUGH
I’M STILL COMING BACK FOR YOU
PLEASE TELL THE ENGINEER WE’RE LOSING TIME
I JUST CAN’T KEEP ON RAMBLIN’ DOWN THE LINE

EXIT WOUNDS
YOU CHOSE A SIDE AND LEFT ME WITH MINE
I’M LEFT IN YOUR WAKE AND I’LL TAKE MY PLACE
AT THE END OF THIS LINE
YOU TIGHTENED THE SCREWS
ON THIS EXIT WOUND
NOW I’M JUST A MAN WITH NOTHING TO GIVE
I’M BLACKENED AND BRUISED
PLEASE DON’T GO THROWING THIS HEART AWAY
OH DARLING
PLEASE DON’T GO THROWING THIS HEART AWAY
DON’T THROW IT AWAY
YOU GOT WHAT YOU NEED, BUT ARE YOU COMPLETE
WOULD YOU RISK IT ALL AND GIVE UP CONTROL
TO FIND SOME RELEASE?
AM I JUST A STOOGE, LOST TO YOUR WEB
ANOTHER SCALP FOR YOUR BED
DON’T TELL ME IT’S TRUE

WHEN NOBODY KNOWS YOUR NAME
WHEN NO ONE KNOWS YOUR NAME
YOU CAN LAY YOUR OWN TRACK
IT’S A TWO-HEADED COIN
WHEN YOU BREAK FROM THE PACK
WHEN NO ONE KNOWS YOUR NAME
LOSE YOUR PLACE IN THE CROWD
HAUNT THE STREETS LIKE A FOG
IN THIS ANY OLD TOWN
WHEN NO ONE KNOWS YOUR NAME
YOU CAN GO AS YOU PLEASE
JUST A BIRD IN THE FLOCK
LOSE YOURSELF IN THE SCENE
WHEN NO ONE KNOWS YOUR NAME
ALL YOUR WORDS CAN BE LOST
SOME FORGOTTEN HIGHWAY
LONG RECLAIMED BY THE DUST
EVERY DAY ENDS THE SAME
WHILE WE’RE CHEATIN’ THE GRAVE
I’D STOP BELIEVING I CAN LIE TO MYSELF
BUT I CAN’T HELP THINKING I COULD BE SOMEONE ELSE
BRIDGE
WHEN NOBODY KNOWS YOUR NAME
YOU SHOULDER THE DARK UNKNOWN
WHEN NOBODY KNOWS YOUR NAME
YOUR CHAPTERS REMAIN UNTOLD
BROKEN CHISEL TO THE STONE

Stitches

STITCHES
WE CAN TRACE THESE MAPS OUT IN THE LIGHT
CLEAR THE BACKROADS FROM OUR MINDS
WAIT AROUND UNTIL THE TAPE REWINDS
SHOW ME HOW TO STEER THE TIME
WE CAN LEAVE THESE WOODS AND TAKE OUR FLIGHT
I BEEN FLOATING ROUND TOO LONG
AND UNLOCK THESE DOORS FROM THE INSIDE
SAVING GRACES FREE THE DAWN
ANOTHER STITCH IN TIME
TO MEND THIS FRAYED OUT RHYME
UNDO THESE TANGLED LINES
IT’S ONLY A STITCH IN TIME
YOU CAN READ MY MIND, I DON’T NEED NO WARNING
EVERY BRUISE INSIDE
I CAN SALT THESE WOUNDS WHEN I NEED TO
HOLD THIS STRING WHILE I UNWIND
THERE’S NO NEED FOR BUILDING FORTRESSES
WHEN I’M STANDING BY YOUR SIDE
WE CAN START THIS CLEAN, MAYBE I JUST NEED TO CUT THESE TWISTED VINES

PORT JACKSON BLUES
IF I CAN’T FIND MY FORTUNE, I WILL NEVER BE YOUR MAN
AS I TRAVEL TO THIS GOLD FIELD, HALF A SHILLING AND A PLAN
CAME A LONG WAY FROM THE MOUNTAINS, PRAY THE LORD WILL GUIDE MY HANDS
AS I WRESTLE WITH THE EARTH TO PULL A BOUNTY FROM THE SAND
I AIN’T NEVER TOUCHED THAT LIQUOR, NEVER GAMBLED FOR MY LIFE
WHEN THE DEVIL COMES A CALLING, I JUST NEED A PLACE TO HIDE
IT’S A FILTHY, STINKING LIVING, DIGGING DITCHES IN THE EARTH
ONLY BOUGHT A ONE WAY TICKET, TAKE MY CHANCES WITH THE DIRT
IF MOTHER EARTH WON’T GIVE UP WHAT I NEED
I PRAY THE LORD WON’T SPARE ME IN MY SLEEP
PORT JACKSON BLUES
TERRIFIED THE GOOD LORD STEER ME WRONG
TRAVELED WAY TOO FAR TO NOT GO ON
FATE AWAITS MY PASSAGE IN THE GROUND
I WON’T BE RETURNING TIL THAT GOLD DUST PAINTS THE TOWN
KISS ME ONCE MORE DARLING, I’LL BE HEADED ON MY WAY
OFF TO FIND MY ONLY FORTUNE, OR I’LL PERISH FROM THE SHAME
SAY A PRAYER TO OLD JAMES DALEY, MAY THE JOURNEY KEEP ME SAFE
BUT IF I DON’T FIND MY FORTUNE, I’LL BE BURIED WITH MY NAME

LAUGHING CLOWN
NO MATTER HOW YOU SPELL IT HONEY
I’M JUST A WANDERING SOUL
YOU BETTER SAVE UP ALL THAT MONEY
MY FEET ARE MADE FROM GOLD
I’M NOT A WOUNDED TROPHY HONEY
BUT I’M ON THE RUN
DON’T EVER THINK THAT YOU CAN BUY ME
YOU COULDN’T BE MORE WRONG
YOU THINK YOU UNDERSTAND ME HONEY
YOU’RE MISSING ALL THE CLUES
I CAN’T STICK AROUND THIS CITY
AIN’T GONNA PAY YOUR DUES
I KNOW YOU WANNA OWN ME HONEY
PUT ME AWAY FOR LIFE
BUT PINNING ME JUST WON’T COME EASY
NOT GONNA WIN THAT FIGHT
YOU KNOW I’M NOT GONNA STAY
TELL ME WHY DO YOU PRETEND
WHY CAN’T I GET THROUGH TO YOU
THIS IS HEADED FOR THE END
YOU CAN TRY TO FIX THE GAME
BUT I WON’T BE COMIN ROUND
WHY CAN’T I GET THROUGH TO YOU
I WON’T BE YOUR LAUGHING CLOWN

Far Away From Here

FAR AWAY FROM HERE
THESE TIMBERS CREAK
BENEATH OUR WEIGHT
AS RAGGARD LIVES
SEARCH OUT ESCAPE
WHATEVER MONSTERS LURK BENEATH
WE’D STILL BE BETTER LOST AT SEA
IT’S SO HARD TO FIND SOME PEACE
DODGING ALL THIS ARTILLERY
WE HAD NO CHOICE
WHERE WE WERE BORN
BUT IF WE DID
I GOT IT WRONG
CURSE THIS CRUEL GEOGRAPHY
IN THIS WRETCHED LOTTERY
WHEN YOU’VE ONLY SEEN THE NIGHT
YOU CAN’T RECOGNIZE THE LIGHT
THE CHARRED REMAINS
OF YOUR FORMER LIFE
FORGE A PRISON FOR YOUR MING
ANY PLACE FAR AWAY FROM HERE
THEY BURN YOUR HOUSE
AND THEY STEAL YOUR WIFE
YOU QUICKLY LOSE ALL YOUR WILL TO FIGHT
SO SCRAPE TOGETHER YOUR LIFE AND LIMB
AND CAST THE DICE
YOU SHOULD’VE LEARNED TO SWIM

QUEENIE
The 24th of May
You were born on Empire Day
From country New South Wales
They crowned you with a royal name
That Irish blood
It surged your veins
And served you well
Through blackest days
Depression led to war
But you were strengthened by that storm
The hardness of those days
Lit fire in your DNA
And you grew up
Before your time
This youngest child
Determined eyes
Please go easy on your way
And I’m coming up the drive
Try to hide those bloodshot eyes
And I never said goodbye
This is how it ends
Speeches given by old friends
The volumes left unsaid
And hope that we will meet again

Gonzo. Passion. The Ming Vase. Haunting and beautiful. Every listen brings a new favorite. Do something like this again, Miss Emma. Please let the answer be yes. Please let the answer be yes!

In some ways this is a more homogeneous listen than it's predecessor. When it kicks, it kicks like a mule, like opener "Horses". Suicide Swans are remarkably consistent - Kyle's writing still mines below the surface digging out gold from the clay of the every day. Performances are fantastic with the usual sympathetic production. Another superb record!

This is SS achieving some kind of pinnacle trajectory. Their best sounding record by some margin and easily their most accomplished. The commitment in their delivery is breathtaking; Epic is the word i would use to sum it all up. Everything functions to drive these fantastic songs home. Some of Kyle's finest work, too. Try the one two sucker punch of the album openers if you ever needed convincing. Recorded in 14 hours but an album for a lifetime
