Stop & Watch 03:40
This all started out the wrong way I say we never had a chance from the start You say it's not the way you planned it You don't understand it baby it's not that hard It's all about communication and determination Learning to listen to what others say You want an explanation I'll give you an education In how to make something unbreakable break I stop... and watch it slowly die I stand... as the answers pass me by Sit still... and don't even begin to try And all... that's left is to wonder why Wonder why... Wonder why... I say that harmony is much easier Done than said... done than said It takes hard work, not just words to Bring it back from the dead It's all about how you handle frustration Learning to be patient when the world is against you If you can forgive and forget and learn not to regret But if you want to give up here's what you can do You stop... and watch it slowly die You stand... as the answers pass me by Sit still... and don't even begin to try And all... that's left is to wonder why Stop and watch it die Let the answers pass you by Sit still and don't try All that's left is to wonder why you... You stop... and watch it slowly die You stand... as the answers pass me by Sit still... and don't even begin to try And all... that's left is to wonder why Stop and watch it die...

Somedays you find the light somedays the light finds you I know I better be ready no matter who finds who Belief is more powerful than man or myth It is the reason half the world is buried neck deep in shit Can no-one see the only thing they should believe Is to love someone as they love you I don't wanna say it I don't wanna be it I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna see it Close your eyes and ears and keep your voice down low Let the world as you know it go Let it go Someday you'll find the answer or it'll find you I keep my lips sealed, eyes peeled looking for the right path to choose I take a step and before I get a chance I see the end slipping like water running through my hands Can no-one see what I see? The disintegration of the masterplan I don't wanna say it I don't wanna be it I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna see it Close your eyes and ears and keep your voice down low Let the world as you know it go Let it go Let it go (Guitar awesomeness...wang wang wang) (Organ wicked sickness) I don't wanna say it I don't wanna be it I don't wanna hear it I don't wanna see it Close your eyes and ears and keep your voice down low Let the world as you know it go (Trumpets Hooo!) Let it go Let it go Let it go

Hang Tough 03:42
Hold it close; don't ever let it go I know that you want Your life to be a never-ending show, but you're gonna need This space, these tears and all the pain when you are alone Just you; your thoughts ringing out like a telephone Waiting for the call to end it all Hoping that your will to live will stall The greater sadness stored in the dark, cold night. Shouting that it's you, just you and you will never be enough So you're just a dot in space; You float and you consume or do you get consumed With heat and anger over all the grief; hold it in your heart Your words; the cloud can only hold onto so much rain And pain, before the sun breaks through We will be your sun and stars; we promise this to you Cradling the fall to end it all Hoping that the candle in the storm will burn The greater sadness stored in the long cold night. It's never only you, just you. Yeah, everyone is gonna hang tough... For you, just you Everyone is gonna hang tough For you, just you Everyone will burst with love For you, just you Riding out the waves so rough For you, just you Everyone is gonna hang tough

about

The first official release, debut EP of Arora. Stop and Watch gives you a taste of the variety this band is capable of. with soaring vocals, killer kit work with grooves all day, big booty bass, roaring organ and gobsmacking guitar, you won't be able to help yourself by the second chorus, you'll be singing on the way to work, the way home and all the way to the show.

Look out for them around Melbourne and check out the shows. If you think these tunes are good just wait until you see the live show, not to be missed.
