In 2000, Sia signed to Sony Music's sub-label Dance Pool and released her second studio album, Healing Is Difficult, the following year. Displeased with the promotion of the record, she signed to Go! Beat and released her third studio album, Colour the Small One, in 2004. The project struggled to connect with a mainstream audience, and so Sia relocated to New York City in 2005 and began touring across the United States. She released her fourth and fifth studio releases, Some People Have Real Problems and We Are Born, in 2008 and 2010, respectively. She then took a hiatus from performing, during which she focused on songwriting for other artists. Her catalogue includes the successful collaborations "Titanium" (with David Guetta), "Diamonds" (with Rihanna) and "Wild Ones" (with Flo Rida).
In 2014, Sia released her sixth studio album 1000 Forms of Fear, which debuted at No 1 in the U.S. Billboard 200 and generated the top-ten breakthrough single "Chandelier" and a trilogy of music videos starring child dancer Maddie Ziegler. In 2016, she released her seventh studio album This Is Acting, which spawned her first Hot 100 number one single, "Cheap Thrills". The same year, Sia gave her Nostalgic for the Present Tour, which incorporated performance art elements. Sia has received an array of accolades, including ARIA Awards and an MTV Video Music Award.

Surely now, you'll have some things to say
It's not the time for telling tales on me
So come along, it wont be long
'Til we return happy
Shut your eyes, there are no lies
In this world we call sleep
Tomorrow we'll be free
Let's not fight, I'm tired, can't we just sleep tonight?
Don't turn away, it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
Well it's been rough but we'll be just fine
Work it out yeah we'll survive
You mustn't let a few bad times dictate
So come along, it wont be long
'Til we return happy
Shut your eyes, there are no lies
In this world we call sleep
Let's desert this day of work
Tomorrow we'll be free
Let's not fight, I'm tired, can't we just sleep tonight?
Don't turn away, it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
(I know we're lost but soon we'll be found)
Oh
Yeah, oh
Oh
Let's not fight, I'm tired, can't we just sleep tonight?
Don't turn away, it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
Oh
Let's not fight, I'm tired, can't we just sleep tonight?
Don't turn away, it's just there's nothing left here to say
Turn around, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
(I know we're lost but soon we'll be found)
Let's not fight, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
Don't turn away I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
Turn around, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
(I know we're lost but soon we'll be found)
Let's not fight, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
Don't turn away, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
Turn around, I know we're lost but soon we'll be found
In Sia's song Soon, the lyrics describe a person who has been running away from good all their life but has finally found someone who will pick them up in their arms and carry them away from harm. The person singing the song expresses their trust in this one good man who promises not to hold them down and to leave no trace. The lyrics show a sense of vulnerability and dependence on this man but also a strong sense of hope and commitment.
The lyrics suggest that the singer has been running away from good all their life, possibly due to past disappointments, failures or trauma. The metaphor of running suggests a constant escape from something, but the person is now ready to stop and trust this one man who they believe will not let them down. The promise of "not holding me down" suggests that the person does not want to be controlled or constrained, but they also want to be sure that their partner will not abandon them or leave them behind. The lyrics also hint at a desire for a fresh start, where the past can be left behind and a new life can be built with this one trusted person.
Overall, Soon is a song about hope, trust, and vulnerability in a relationship. It speaks to the universal human desire to find someone who will love and protect us, and the willingness to take a chance even when there is a risk involved.

Okay……
Yesterday i heard “Breath me” for the first time…… i listened at least 50 times (live version in Sidney…)
I looked her up and listened to more songs……
You know, I am 65 years old….. Grew up with Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Rory Gallagher and many many more…….
Most of today music?? 🥴 (sorry but not my thing)
But…… here she is!
Thanx for keeping my faith in music…. From my heart
Greetings from cold dark and snowy Sweden
