NEWSFLASH :::::: ANNOUNCEMENT :::::: NEWSFLASH
"First off, in case you can't tell we're brothers. We were both born in Sydney, Australia and we've been around music basically since birth. Our Dad was a music promoter and record label owner and introduced us to an eclectic variety of live shows during our growing up years, from acts such as pop star Amy Grant to heavy-metal group Stryper (Good stuff!). For both of us music has always been the natural backdrop of our lives...
In 1991 our Dad got offered a job in Nashville, TN. So with our mum pregnant and our four siblings (so that makes six, without including the baby on the way) we grabbed sixteen bags and moved to the US... Since then, apart from school and playing sport we've travelled with various artists all over America and the world singing BGV's and running different aspects of their lives shows. We're now 22 (Joel) and 20 (Luke) and have over the last year and a half been writing, performing, and working on music as a duo.
Music is more than just a gig to us. It somehow has the uncanny ability to speak to the heart, and we believe it should be used to convey a positive message. Life is a journey full of ups and downs and we want to write about the real things that we're going through and hopefully others in our generation will be encouraged that someone else struggles with the same issues that they do. We also want to write music that resonates with people... music that speaks about real life issues, whether that means telling about our honest struggles, asking unanswered questions, or talking about relationships. The truth is that we write what we're walking through at the time and our hope is that this will be an encouragement to others and something they can relate to."
Missing
Joel & Luke Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let your head bob quietly
Look and you will see
What one word, a fight, a voice are meant to be
When it darkens in the chamber
And flickers in the tree
It's much too late for sympathy but
Love is all we're going to get now
Love is all we're going to want now
Still there are missing chains in here
You let me take a bite of your fruit cake
You let me take a ride in your landscape
You let me take a dive into your lake
Still there are missing chains in here
My labyrinth's so complete that I could cry
So many days without a signal
You might think I would die
A suitcase full of devastating news from here
You left with nothing but your shadow
But there's nothing to fear
Love is all we're going to get now
Love is all we're going to need now
Love is all we're going to want now
Still there are missing chains in here
You let me take a bite of your fruit cake
You let me take a ride in your landscape
You let me take a dive into your lake
Still there are missing chains in here
Love is all we're going to get now
Love is all we're going to need now
Love is all we're going to want now
Still there are missing chains in here
You let me take a bite of your fruit cake
You let me take a ride in your landscape
You let me take a dive into your lake
Still there are missing chains in here
Love is all we're going to get now
Love is all we're going to need now
Love is all we're going to want now
Still there are missing chains in here
You let me take a bite of your fruit cake
You let me take a ride in your landscape
You let me take a dive into your lake
Still there are missing chains in

Line by Line Meaning
Yeah, its like... I don't know what's going on shorty
I'm confused about why you left me and I don't know what's happening.
Hey shorty, where you going
I'm reaching out to you to find out where you're headed.
You look important, is that imported
You look like you have something going on, is that something expensive you're wearing?
This is boring, why don't you stay and chill
Life without you is dull, why don't you stay with me and relax?
And stay until like 4 in the morning
I want you to stay with me until early in the morning.
Cause I really miss your company
I miss your presence in my life.
I really wish you hung with me
I wish you spent your time with me.
It's been so long since
It's been a while since
I felt the feeling of you touching me
I miss the sensation of your touch.
Is there another man or someone that
Are you seeing someone else
You loving that's made you feel comfier
Did you find someone who makes you feel more comfortable?
And safer than I ever have
Someone who makes you feel more secure than I ever did.
Cause I ain't think that was possible to be honest (Facts)
I didn't think that was even possible, to be honest.
Everything that I got I gave it all
I've given everything I have to you.
To you when you told me you oughta
When you told me you wanted to be with me.
Be my boo and I said "bet" and since then
When you asked me to be your partner and I agreed.
We were always one together, never two
We were always united as one, never apart.
And all those lies you heard, they were never true
All the rumors you've heard about me were false.
I know I hurt a lot of people but
I'm aware that I've hurt others, but
Never you, I would never do anything
I would never hurt you or do anything
To make you upset see, I would never
To upset you, I would never do anything
Give you a reason to resent me
To feel angry or bitter towards me.
Cause you were my girl, you were the one for me
You were the one I loved and wanted to be with.
And now that you're gone
Now that you're not in my life.
My world's crumbling under me
My life is falling apart without you.
I just wish you were here to keep me company
I wish you were here to keep me company.
I miss the feeling of you missing and loving me
I miss the sensation of you loving and missing me.
Look, I really don't know what I did
Honestly, I'm not sure what I did wrong.
But I'm getting kinda sick of playing games
I'm tired of the back and forth.
With this shit, I really wish you could talk
I wish we could discuss this and communicate.
And just not blame me for things that I ain't
I want you to stop putting the blame on me for things I didn't do.
Even do it's crazy how you making me think
It's insane how you're making me believe
That I really did to something to you, when
That I actually did something to hurt you, when
I know that I would never do nothing to you, it's brutal
I'm aware that I never did anything to hurt you, it's painful.
I loved you more than anything I ever
I loved you more than anything else.
Loved, I ain't ever raised a hand to you
I never physically harmed you or hit you.
Pulled you or ever shoved but you pulled
I never pushed or grabbed you, but you pushed
Me into your antics and fooled me with
Me into your behaviors and tricked me with
Your romantics and lured me to your hand
Your romantic gestures to bring me to you.
And then crushed me inside your palm
And then hurt me deeply.
And for what, what did I do
And for what reason, what did I do wrong?
You gon still lie, or tell the truth
Are you going to continue to lie or tell the truth?
Do you still love me too
Do you still love me as well?
You look at the moon the same time that
Do you look at the moon at the same time as
I look at the moon? Do you ever think
I do? Do you ever think
About me? Cause I think about you (A whole lot, baby)
About me, because I think about you a lot.
And I don't know why girl, but I got this crazy
I don't know why, but I have this intense
Thing about you, ay
Feeling or obsession with you.
I remember holding you, I remember loving you
I cherish the memory of holding and loving you.
Do you remember it too babe, no
Do you still remember it too, babe? (I'm not sure)
You were my girl, now I'm crumbling
You used to be my girlfriend, now I'm falling apart
