Fight
I know it's somewhere under there
Somewhere beneath all the doubts and the paperwork
No distractions
And dulled emotions
An ocean in my mind
Fight
I know it's right for me to fight
Still it's so easy to smile at the flowers
Bring them closer
They're getting nearer
It's clearer when you rewind
Fight
I thought we had ourselves a deal
You were the tortoise and I the hare
But it never happened
Will it ever happen?
A snap and then despair

Lost in the Crowd

I planned the perfect escape
"Cause I thought I'd made up my mind
No words would be spoken, no hearts would be broken
I'd leave all those memories behind
It seemed an idea solution
On paper it carried no flaw
My mission completed, the devil defeated
The end of an old civil war
But little did I know
The battle was already won
For me it was over before it had even begun
Now I am lost in the crowd
I can't see a pathway that's free
I'm stuck here forever, no ties left to sever
Alone, just my conscience and me

Do I know who you really are
Or do I see the strange little part
You want me to see
We can be two of a kind
Then I blink and I think "was I blind?"
You are who you are in your mind
And so I try to see the truth
Behind your familiar eyes
And you can go on telling me all the things
You still don't really know
Still the seed begins to grow

K's Confusion

You get home in the evening and you wonder what to do
Everything looks wrong and out of place
You walk around for a while until you don't know your own name
But you still can recognise your face
You look straight into the glass
Hoping to outstare the past
But you effortlessly yield and drift away
Imagining your life without the grey
So you smile another day
You wake up in a frenzy and you try to go to work
But halfway there you realise you're lost
Trying to remember just what job you used to do
You search for a street that you've already crossed
Nighttime creeps into the sky
You look up and wave goodbye
As you wonder when the dark replaced the day
It's funny how a moment slips away
Before you get to say...
Four o'clock in the morning and you wrestle with your fears
How much longer can it all go on?
Searching in the darkness for a token you can touch
A sentinel appears, and then is gone
Weeks pass, you hardly say a word
Speaking seems so absurd
As you wonder when the dark replaced the day
And dreams became the dawning of a day
Before you got to say...

When
05:59

When pastel pink and peach fill the sky
When life's not fair and she wants to cry
Or when she is shy and hiding
For a kiss or a song
Something's cruel; something's wrong
When niggly nightmares sharpen their knives
When thunder arrives
When paper princesses lavish our lives
Whenever we sympathise, compromise
For a flash or an hour
In any season at all
For not a reason at all
Rainbows, shadows
She comes, she goes

I Will Love You

If ever i feel the memory slipping away
If ever I see the moment fading to grey
The part of me that's pure and free
May smile with my eyes and say
"I will love you for all the days of my life"
All of this time your hand was missing from mine
Nothing exists the moment they intertwine
But when they do it feels like you
Are trying to give me a sign
That I will love you for all the days of your life

Jonathan Skovron Melbourne, Australia
Introducing Melbourne Musician Jonathan Skovron's new solo project, SKOV – a colourful, evocative folk-pop-jazz hybrid that showcases his ability as an improvising guitarist against the backdrop of his colourfully evocative songwriting, creating a unique language that lives somewhere near the intersection of Elliott Smith, Norah Jones and Bill Frisell. ... more
Jonathan Skovron recommends:
Audrey Powne is a unique and exciting voice. I love how she shatters the boundaries between Jazz and Soul, proving that great songwriting and great improvising can easily co-exist!
