    Geoff Achison’s brilliant, critically acclaimed songwriting project ‘Sovereign Town’ was recorded in the heart of the Victorian goldfields at Ballarat, close to where Achison grew up. The songs are thoughtful and at times, deeply personal, with Geoff’s vocal and acoustic guitar up front with sympathetic backing from drums, hammond organ, electric guitar and upright bass.

lyrics

I’m wishing I was
Just sleepwalking
On a midnight creep
Wishing I was
Just sleepwalking
How could this ever be?

Like waking up from
A bad nightmare
And I’m turning in my bed
Another world of
My own invention
A drama in my head

Just like we never existed
We’re not what we seem
And I oughta be waking up soon
Can you see what that means?

Wishing I was
Just sleepwalking
And none of this ever was
I’m standing here like a dream talking
Just a ghost in your hall

Time don’t mean nothing at all
Except the days and years
Whatever innocence was
It was stolen away from here

Wishing I was
Just sleepwalking
It’s all gonna be alright
With the rising sun
I’ll be walking into the light

With the rising sun
I’ll be walking into the light
