I couldn't see a thing but I could hear destruction in the dark
Corrugated iron and timber rip and wrench my roof apart
As each tree fell, it felt like the earth was trying to catch its breath
Tunnels of wind whipped through the hills and kicked the forest half to death
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Everything was already falling, it's just falling faster now
The power lines frantic like cut snakes in the wind that brought them down
My shady lane was torn to shreds, a mess of dirty, brown and green
I threw my bag over my head, headed where I said I'd try to be
Once in a lifetime you get days like these
There's sure been a lot of once in a lifetimes lately
You rescued me on the main road, up near the footy ground
Now I'm masked up and sanitised in a hotel in my hometown
The army established a post on Ballan-Daylesford Road
It was a couple days of hope, til I knew if I still had a home
My hide out deep among the trees, it had nearly flattened me
I still hear the wind whip through the clearing when I'm trying to fall asleep
The last few weeks the world felt fast what I'm learning to understand
If you tread water for so long, your feet feel unstable on land
Once in a lifetime you get days like these
There's sure been a lot of once in a lifetimes lately
Once in a lifetime you get days like these
There's sure been a lot of once in a lifetimes
Nobody thinks about life after football
Everyone swears they live in the future
I didn't know we were moving the goalposts
Much less tearing them down forever
Nobody thinks about life after football
Everyone swears they live in the future
I didn't know we were moving the goalposts
Much less tearing them down forever
You told us we were invincible
You showed us you didn't care
(Nobody thinks about life after football)
You told us we were invincible
You showed us you didn't care
(Nobody thinks about life after football)
Nobody thinks about life after football (You told us we were invincible)
Everyone swears they live in the future (You showed us you didn't care)
I didn't know we were moving the goalposts (You told us we were invincible)
Much less tearing them down forever
Forever
Corrugated iron and timber rip and wrench my roof apart
As each tree fell, it felt like the earth was trying to catch its breath
Tunnels of wind whipped through the hills and kicked the forest half to death
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Everything was already falling, it's just falling faster now
The power lines frantic like cut snakes in the wind that brought them down
My shady lane was torn to shreds, a mess of dirty, brown and green
I threw my bag over my head, headed where I said I'd try to be
Once in a lifetime you get days like these
There's sure been a lot of once in a lifetimes lately
You rescued me on the main road, up near the footy ground
Now I'm masked up and sanitised in a hotel in my hometown
The army established a post on Ballan-Daylesford Road
It was a couple days of hope, til I knew if I still had a home
My hide out deep among the trees, it had nearly flattened me
I still hear the wind whip through the clearing when I'm trying to fall asleep
The last few weeks the world felt fast what I'm learning to understand
If you tread water for so long, your feet feel unstable on land
Once in a lifetime you get days like these
There's sure been a lot of once in a lifetimes lately
Once in a lifetime you get days like these
There's sure been a lot of once in a lifetimes
Nobody thinks about life after football
Everyone swears they live in the future
I didn't know we were moving the goalposts
Much less tearing them down forever
Nobody thinks about life after football
Everyone swears they live in the future
I didn't know we were moving the goalposts
Much less tearing them down forever
You told us we were invincible
You showed us you didn't care
(Nobody thinks about life after football)
You told us we were invincible
You showed us you didn't care
(Nobody thinks about life after football)
Nobody thinks about life after football (You told us we were invincible)
Everyone swears they live in the future (You showed us you didn't care)
I didn't know we were moving the goalposts (You told us we were invincible)
Much less tearing them down forever
Forever
