about

This energetic track leads listeners in with a French count and the catchiest electric riff that will leave you bopping for days. At the same time, The Wollongong raised artist gives listeners some insight into seeing through the BS, having optimistic self-talk and the light that shines through in all of us.

The Music video for this track takes you literally inside an armed robbery. Resembling the inner battles one would go through when separating themselves from a toxic environment. The filming of this video caused a little disruption in Calcites home town when the police responded to what they thought was a real robbery.

Calcite says his new song ‘man on the moon’ is about “Learning that heartache takes time and there is never a distance far enough to hide from your buried emotions.” The artist never shies away from exposing his fractures throughout life. Inspiring and sending the message to many of his fans that it’s ok to feel! (You gotta feel to heal)

lyrics

My open mind
Has been strolling
Sticking out my tongue
Got my third eye rolling
The colours out my mouth
They’ve been showing you
What you already knew
Just new and improved

So I lost the fight
But the war is still at hand
Focus on what’s real
And not what’s in your head
But don’t forget to dream
Maybe think of me
Like you say you
But I’m still reading you cause

It’s all over you
Written on your face
I walked from the fight
Still I’m beat black and blue
It’s not all how you speak
It’s in the words you choose
I never saw the fire
But I lit the fuse

I can’t live a lie
Never crossed my heart
Never hoped to die
When your light shines through
There’s nothing warm
No essence of you
I say my goodbyes yeah
Everytime we speak
Everytime I dream
We both know that soon
It will be our last goodbye

So I’m numb to you
It took a year or two
Though it’s hard to see
Yeah you’re killing me
So I’m numb to you
Light breaking through
Like an astronaut
On my way to you

My open mind
Has been strolling
Sticking out my tongue
Got my third eye rolling
The colours out my mouth
They’ve been showing you
What you already knew
Just new and improved
