 * GROUP MEMBERS:**

We have discussed the Australian event that we will be using in our composition which is the Kokoda trail. The Kokoda trail was a signficant event which happened to the young Australian soldiers of our past so it was appropriate to dedicate a song to our heros.

We tried to keep lyrics emotional without the usual cliche lines you see in some Australian popular music...

Even if the moon wakes We march in this endless trail of greenery But all I see is black and red Take this gun and clench the hand of emptiness Fill my head with courage and hate I won't die today**
 * We'll fight, we'll fight for our freedom
 * I'm unbreakable

Bring me back t****o the days With no bullets or blades**

Just verse 1 and pre chorus at the moment... -Alison

Just our first demo sample of what we may do... Note: Chords are __unknown__

Me, Muriel and Shane's voice didn't quite match the chords Muriel was playing... So we thought we'd bring a bit higher and put a capo on the 2nd fret - Alison (Keep in mind that Muriel was wearing a traditional mexican poncho during this recording...)

Thought of the chorus... Never to part (x2)**
 * You're in our hearts

and 2nd verse... Our endless struggle through these hard times**
 * My hope is slowly fading away**
 * But I will persist till the very last day

Still need to work on verse 2 though.

This is our third recording sample with both lyrics and guitar, its a brief view of what the song sounds like. It's a bit shabby and some of the voices are too low compared to the guitar so it may be difficult to pick out the lyrics..

So this is the completed lyrics...

Even if the moon wakes We march in this endless trail of greenery But all I see is black and red Take this gun and clench the hand of emptiness Fill my head with courage and hate I won't die today**
 * VERSE 1**
 * We'll fight, we'll fight for our freedom
 * I'm unbreakable

PRE CHORUS Bring me back t****o the days With no bullets or blades

CHORUS** Never to part (x2)
 * You're in our heart

VERSE 2 My hope is slowly fading away But I'll persist till the very last day It's our hope, our struggle, our challenge, our fate In this useless battle to take our place No one will win.**

Take my hand I'll never let go Say my goodbyes.**
