Full Throttle Serenity

| [Verse] He'd sit by the gum tree Tea in his hand Talkin' ‘bout clouds and the lay of the land But when the shed door creaked And the fuel can called Serenity vanished Engines enthralled [Chorus] Full throttle serenity Hear it roar The peace he loved Traded for more More smoke More fire More dirt in the breeze That two-stroke hum His heart’s reprieve [Verse 2] The smell of petrol It clung to his shirt Grease on his fingers Boots caked in dirt He’d say “Quiet’s nice But listen here Son Life's a whole lot louder when the engine runs.” [Chorus] Full throttle serenity Hear it roar The peace he loved Traded for more More smoke More fire More dirt in the breeze That two-stroke hum His heart’s reprieve [Bridge] On quiet nights I can hear him still Riding the ridges The engine’s shrill And though I miss his quiet Miss his laugh I smile when I hear that throaty blast [Chorus] Full throttle serenity Hear it roar The peace he loved Traded for more More smoke More fire More dirt in the breeze That two-stroke hum His heart’s reprieve |
