Smoke

Smoke in a tunnel, and a trip to the hospital
You're full of apologies, but you don't know what it did to me
The mask on your face, and you're telling me it's OK
As the smoke fills the station, I watched you racing for evacuation
You got to get out of the underground
You got to get out before it drags you down
You got o get out 'cause you know it's right
You got to get out, get out tonight
Smoke in a tunnel, and a trip to a hospital
You're insults and apologies,You don't know what it did to me
It's the same old scene again, another trip on a dead end
Another trip on your train, another trip driving me insane

Self Doubt
03:10

If I could tie two words together
I'd keep them there, with some kinda glue
Like the bonds that hold me to you
They'd never come apart
They'd be strong like two hearts
Theses lines on a page
But words ain't my forte and this ain't my party
So I'll just keep mumbling along, whoa oh,
I'll never write a new song
The lines on this page will get destroyed by self doubt
It's always the same way
The monsters in my head
They never liked anything I ever did
And all the rhyming dictionaries
They don't seem to help me
My words all all wrong
whoa oh, I'll never write a new song

Breaking
02:12

If you get it wrong
When you get it right
Will you come and see me in my dreams tonight
That's where I'm waiting
And I've been here since the dawn was breaking
And I'm waiting
And I'm breaking
Having broken in two
Now you're all gone
And I'm still here
Wading slowly through the tears
And I'm waiting
On the darkest days
On the longest drives
It's in my dreams that you're still alive
That's where I'm waiting

Look away

I didn't finish school or have a career
I followed my heart and I wore it on my sleeve
I spent to many nights alone in the bars
I wanted to run away but I could never leave
What would you think of me know
Would you stand up would you be proud
Would you your your eyes down to your feet
Would you turn your back on me.
I never understood the sacrifice you made
I don't know if I could ever do the same
Now I know what it's like I got a family of my own now
I'm working hard to get there some how

Highway 7

She had a red car, as dirty as could be
There was garbage under the front seat, from 1993
But it wasn't that bad, it was only '95
She had a red car, she drove it down the line
Some peoples dreams they've drowned in the Trent River Severn
But I let my dreams rust away, out on highway 7
We'd stop to buy smokes, in Kaladar
I thought it was halfway there, so hard to tell in the dark
Nobody had to tell me, how it was going to go
I left part of myself out there, out there on that road

Sleepless
03:44
|

When you're sleepless you just don't know
When you're sleepless there's no directions you can follow
When you're sleepless you get confused
When you're sleepless it's hard to find anything to do
When you're sleepless you yawn all day
When you're sleepless It's hard to find anything to say

Rays

Summers done, and winters dawned
And all your friends have come and gone
Retreat to your closet room
Listen to records by the light of the moon
Wait out three months wait out four
A couple of weeks, maybe a couple more
but then the sun begins to shine
On all your friends and all of mine
Remember standing in the warm summer days
Remember singing the song we used to love to play
Under the bright stars on a cool summer night
When something was everything
And everything was all right
The leaves are turning brown again
Look at the colours as it sinks in
The ice and the snow, the wind and the slush
When everything gets all messed up
The shortened days, the dark long nights
When everything is not quite right

Last Goodbye
01:47
|

When you know what you gotta do
Doesn't make it easier, on anyone that's true
And I know that you loved her too
Doesn't make it easier, for what we've gotta do
'Cause when it comes to this goodbye
I saw the life float out of your eyes
Now I know I said my Last Goodbye
Thank you for waiting for me, as long as you could
Thank you for being there, I knew you always would
Thank you for everything, for being my friend
At least we were together at the end
