Nullarbor Song Lyrics - Barricades And Brickwalls - Kasey Chambers

When the fire burns out here 

It's brighter than the city lights 

Warmer than a heart of gold 

And dingo's howl just to break the silence 

The sun comes up just to break the cold 

Last night I woke 

With the stars looking back at me 

Swallowing the sky 

I felt no anger, I felt no shame 

I felt no reason to cry 

If I'm not here in the morning 

I'll cry a river of tears 

But I'll learn to live in a new town 

But my heart is staying here 

When it's quiet out here 

A hundred miles away 

You can hear the train on the line 

The whistle blows just to break the silence 

I wave just to break the time 

I close my eyes 

I think of runnin' water 

I think of runnin' away 

But the fires burnt to ashes 

And it's darker than before 

But I can see as clear as day
