Foreign Land was written as a tribute for Heath Ledger’s death.
The band was in New York at the time that Ledger died, and that, with the fact that they had come from the same town, left them feeling genuine remorse
“It had just started snowing. It was a magical moment. That night we had to do this...
[Verse 1]
Steady my shaky hands
Shut off the world's demands
Just get the facts down
Do you understand?
[Verse 2]
This is a foreign land
So try to understand that
Do you understand?
Do you understand?
[Bridge]
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
[Chorus]
Even when you're all alone
Even when it's not your home
[Verse 3]
Take a little look around
Melting as it hits the ground
Touch my hand
Up to the air
[Verse 4]
Dying in a foreign land
So do you understand that
Do you understand?
Do you understand?
[Bridge]
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
[Chorus]
Even when you're all alone
Even when it's not your home
[Post-Chorus]
I smell the blood of an Australian
[Interlude]
Try to understand this if you can
If you can, if you can
[Bridge]
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
If this is what it feels to love
Then l can feel that
[Chorus (Bridge)]
Even when you're all alone
(If this is what it feels to love)
(Then I can feel that)
Even when it's not your home
(If this is what it feels to love)
(Then I can feel that)
[Post-Chorus]
I smell the blood of an Australian
