Drumheller 04:16
With hands behind my head and feet towards the sky The faint sense of a plan reminds me that I'm alive Onwards on the road let's see what comes of this I wonder if you too feel empty and aimless Pardon me for saying what should be dead and gone I guess that I'm still catching up to those who've moved on The sharpness of the loss well i guess i took care of that now it's back to that old dull pain that won't cut me any slack The Prairies they roll on just like They decided to do Black Beauty I feel as old as you You would think that I... Got away clean... To be loved it's not enough I have to show what I am

Shimmer 03:41
There was a time when I used to have it all I'll be back there as soon as I regain control. Give me a piece of paper and a pen and I'll tell you All of the things that I've been holding onto There's something that happens that confused and distracted people do They remember what they don't have and forget the things that they do I'm diseased, I'm the cure this neighbourhood has no more allure and neither do you yeah the sun it still shines so shimmer, won't you

Practice 04:20
You got a whale on your wall and a cat in your lap oh you're kicking back So we sit on your floor and you tell me things you tell me about your dreams And I, got an idea for me and you How's, how's about we help each other through You got peace in the valley I've got drugs in my alley But I'd spend all of my money away Just to sit here all day What I, what I've got ain't no condition It's just a bad, bad case of self deprecation All the fires have gone out and the cold's rolled in I'm moving on again I'll see you around in the winter time Don't forget to shine, on me Too long, too long I've been bored and passive But I'm, I'm not done just out of practice
4.
Spring 05:01
Won't you come and try to meet me can't you tell that I've been sleeping forget the night, forget the cold you and i could grow old together. In your kitchen we would dance quiet moving in a trance leave our voices for the night lean on each other and just die Remember Ben, remember Liam Oh my god I must be dreaming Don't forget to pack your cat We're going to the woods and we're never coming back Now I slide along in the city but I'm not coming with me I'm not hungry stomach's empty fuck this job and fuck I'm crazy I lost my friend and I lost my car have to know where you are from a family been barred all they can say is change is hard I'm still confused and still distracted sometimes wonder how I acted think I loved you the most or was it you or you or was it both well it doesn't really seem to matter not the former nor the latter if I'm gonna go to hell at least I'll be going with myself... The moonlit nights and the autumn air wink at me pull me back there down the alley kicking stones as i drag myself home This neighbourhood has lost its charm streets have now all been scarred drinking beers in the park staring out alone into the dark I try to pull myself together be alone, work get stronger surely soon i'll feel better make my way through this letter well I wouldn't know how to tell it except to say how I felt it death and change bring something new I'd like to feel what it is to not love you

Paulie 04:22
You stand by and talk to me at night The smiles that you send feel as real as they did when you were alive I guess you'd say things didn't go as planned I can feel you now and I think that I understand But I wonder, if anyone else can... I miss your hands and the wrinkles around your eyes It's winter now and how you'd love to watch the snow in the sky Yeah and as time goes by I can feel the great divide you underground dead and me... so alive

Neighbours 05:51
Turn my face turn my face to mush count me one one, two, three rosemary bush it's better that we stay out of the light you go your way and I'll sink back into the night Save a few save a few friends for me an old, a new, a best count again to three beg you again you know that i would for a glimpse of the moon through the cottonwoods so draw me a picture would you please of a cabin at night or music in my street a frame for me something i can clench as i die a little on this corner bench Hold my hand hold my hand in the dark drink once, drink twice, drink three times and walk through the park confused again would you help me through what's happening to me is it happening to you
