LYRICS
[Verse 1]
Born from a soldier's arms
But our spirit keeps a-moving on
And one metre at a time we'll fall
It's a bloody hill in a broken war

We've been singing like a lunatic
And knee-deep in our milk and sticks
Just a kid with a broken arm
It's a slingshot, a hail of harm

[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm hungry for that feeling, honey
'Cause it's moving faster than the speed of sound
I left you a lizard by the lake, my lover
It was so profound

[Refrain]
While we found
While we found...

[Verse 2]
Torn like a beaten man
It's another dog in a foreign land
And keep on carrying a broken stone
And new tricks and a buried bone

We were born to be motivated
Cut off and cultivated
I promise you when the time does come
We'll be down-river with my loaded gun

[Chorus]

[Refrain] x2

[Bridge]
Just like the rest
You'll be coming back, you'll be looking for paradise
For the silver line
That separates your body from your mind

What a mess we're in...

There's a monster in my head
There's an animal screaming down upon my neck
Oh no, you better get up, my friend

There's a monster in my head
There's an animal screaming down upon my neck
Oh no, you better get up, my friend

What a mess we're in...

About The Band:
'(Boy & Bear) bring their '70s inspired pop-folk vibes, combining lead vocalist Dave Hosking's signature glorious vocals with bass lines full of attitude along with cinematic melodies that resonate throughout any venue' - LeftLion UK.

The Sydney 5-piece first garnered attention when they uploaded their song The Storm to triple j Unearthed in 2009. Their debut album Moonfire (2011) reached double-platinum sales, won five ARIA Awards and three songs in the triple j Hottest 100. Their sophomore album Harlequin Dream (2013) achieved platinum sales and the #1 spot on the ARIA Album chart staying in the top ten for five weeks. They followed up with Limit Of Love (2015), resulting in their second ARIA #1 album debut.

After touring the world multiple times, the band became Splendour In The Grass favourites, performed on Conan O'Brien, and sold out two Sydney Opera Houses. This iconic Australian band returned with their triumphant release, Suck On Light, in 2019. In 2020 they released At Golden Retriever Studio, a series of stunningly stripped-back versions of some of the most loved songs of their career.

Boy & Bear's trademark live performance warmth and charisma was experienced by over 65,000 people this Australian summer. Crowds grinned from ear to ear as they joined forces to sway together, sing their hearts out and reminisce on their fondest memories.

Having now wrapped their tour, the band return to the studio to create music for expected release next year.
