    ~~~~~ Lyrics ~~~~~
    Have you ever done anything like this before?
    Have you ever done anything like this before?
    If you’ve never done anything like this before, then you haven’t been alive
    Have you ever shut all the open doors
    Have you ever just walked on out on your own
    Have you ever just lost your mind when you try to unwind or are you coming right back for more?
    I’m here tonight
    Promise me you’ll hold me till I die
    I’m by your side
    Promise me it’s gonna, promise me it’s gonna be alright
    Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh
    Promise me it’s gonna be alright.
    Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh
    Promise me it’s gonna be alright.
    Have you ever been alone too much
    Have you ever prayed for human touch
    Have you ever just lost a little part of you to find a little something new?
    Cross my heart
    Till the sky turns red in the sunrise
    Since you told me everything's alright.
    Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh
    Since you told me everything's alright.
    Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh
    Promise me it’s gonna be alright.
    I’m here tonight
    Promise me you’ll hold me till I die
    I’m by your side
    Promise me it’s gonna, promise me it's gonna, promise me it’s gonna be alright
    Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh
    Ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh, ah-oh-oh-oh
    Alright!
    Cross my heart
    Till the sky turns red in the sunrise
    Promise me it’s gonna be alright
    Be alright!
    Alright!

I love prog metal and I absolutely love that the genre is getting exposure on ESC! I also love that the lead guitarist is a woman, that’s so cool - she’s so cool! As a female guitarist I find that so encouraging; usually I only see women in bands playing bass… Rock on!! 🤘🏼

DT is my favourite and you know they also have powerful pop-sounding songs, which almost always retain some prog-specific elements such as guitar or keyboard solos, just like Voyager in this song (I mean, including both - in a typical prog metal style, albeit short - is a feat for an ESC song!). They correctly style themselves as a progressive pop metal band. Some also call them a synth metal band. Actually, they sound quite similar to Haken (check their song 'Earthrise' to see how pop-sounding a prog metal band can be).

    Wonderful song ! Mixed between Electro and Rock, well balanced, with a beautiful voice to serve it. It's full of energy, i like the guitar solo, i expect this band to deliver this with great power on stage. I'm confident, people will be impressed when Voyager jump on the scene. Good luck guys, Australia rocks !

    This is by far, the best song of ESC2023. Australia does it as the past year. There was Sheldon's voice, here will be the stunning performance.
