Well I don't wanna,
Hear you or your highly inaccurate idea
of who you think I am.
I took every note
that you ever wrote
and I threw it in a fire surrounded by my friends
And i'm sure that you hate me and that's just fine
But just remember I shut you out of my life, for the last time.
And now you got your back against the wall
and it just blows my mind how you could blow them all.
I need a second for comprehension the countless people
the names that you mentioned.
There's nothing in you that catches my eye anymore
after you threw your respect on a basement floor
(And I know)
You'll trip
And you'll fall
And to me
It won't mean anything at all.
Frustration,
came in with the rain
And I got a headache everyday
when all the words that you'd say
sound exactly the same
In February I made another mistake.
And I should have turned the other way
but I stayed
with this same stupid look on my face.
'Cause everything that you said
got inside of my head
All the holes in the drywall meant,
I wished it would end.
I've had enough
So I burned you out
(I burned you out of my life)
you always try to get ahead of your section
you'll probably just end up with another infection.
Where did you think all this would land you
(I still don't see how I could ever stand you)
So I'll scream out loud till' my voice is blown
After all this time I should have known
(I should have known)
Frustration,
came in with the rain
And I got a headache everyday
when all the words that you'd say
sound exactly the same
In February I made another mistake.
And I just need you to be gone
You'll probably pass out on the front lawn
at some sketchy Scarborough party
from a pointless fight you started.
Just give up you're a
WRECK!

Slack Tide
03:10
|

('Cause now)
The rain floods in from every angle
and I just want to leave.
The waters rising past my ankles
and now I can't believe I listened to
these fucking bullshit stories.
(From people that I hate)
I need to get out of this place
before it gets too late.
'Cause I'm drowning,
when I scare myself to death
'cause the only thing holding me up
Is my blood and sweat.
I gotta keep pushing
for everything I want and more
so I can make it all the places
I have never been before.
After hours on end in a hospital bed
I just wanted to figure out what was going on.
(In your head)
'Cause after all was said and done
there must have been something in
the bottom of that bottle.
(You didn't want)
This song is meant to keep you standing strong
you'll always be worth something to me so keep
(Holding on)
I'm carried out with the tide
I'm lost in my subconscious
The pressure in my chest
is choking me to death.
'Cause I can't control my breath
enough to stop from falling into
another failure to preform
I'm sailing into this storm.
'Cause I'm drowning,
when I scare myself to death
'cause the only thing holding me up
Is my blood and sweat.
I gotta keep pushing
for everything I want and more
so I can take you all the places
You have never been before.

Cutting Ties
04:22
|

And I remember the day when you and I first met
and how your stare had me standing in a cold sweat
And I remember the way you made me feel offset
and how you dropped me for loser that was talking shit.
You tossed me around when I was lost and found
you swept me up off the ground before I made a sound
you dropped me in the ocean to drown
Gasping and breathing
but never defeating
I'm never getting anywhere with this.
well I've been wasting my time on this shit.
When I see that smile on your face.
(When I see that, When I see that)
Reminds me there's a little more to this place.
(There's a little, There's a little more)
But you gave me a taste and ripped it away
(You gave me a taste, You gave me a taste)
So excuse me If I seem different today.
If I seem different today.
Tonight I'm cutting ties
with everyone that used to know me
And to be completely honest
I've been missing these people
keeping their distance.
That night when we could see the stars from the city
That's when I thought that you meant what you said to me.
I never get a minute to think
drowning and sinking
I'm dying to end this.
When I see that smile on your face
Reminds me there's a little more to this place.
When I see that smile on your face.
(When I see that, When I see that)
Reminds me there's a little more to this place.
(There's a little, There's a little more)
But you gave me a taste and ripped it away
(You gave me a taste, You gave me a taste)
So excuse me If I seem different today.
If I seem different today.
Different today.

Flat Beer
04:12
|

I'm not really one for keeping track
but I'll remember everyone that's turned their
back on me
and I'm so damn tired.
'Cause I surround myself with half killed beers
and half ass friends over these wasted years.
Over these wasted years.
I can't get rid of the taste of flat beer and cigarettes
I have a massive fear of finding out
I'm worth nothing.
'Cause eventually I'll probably be just
another unanswered message on your phone
I should probably get used to the feeling of being
alone.
You know those stars in your eyes
wouldn't shine so fucking bright
If you'd just turn around to see the pile of dust
that you left behind.
And now i'm left staring at a brick wall
can't find the words to justify it at all
sat around waiting for a phone call
that's never gonna come.
I'm a mess, 'cause it's hard to see clear
when you're stressed
And this weight won't leave my chest.
But nothings ever perfect so there's nothing i'll
accept.
I'm not really one for keeping track
but I'll remember everyone that's turned their
back on me
(Back on me)
and I'm so damn tired.
'Cause I surround myself with half killed beers
and half ass friends over these wasted years.
Over these wasted years.
These wasted years.
Twenty years gone and nothing feels right
Toronto winters got me trapped inside.
I can't even get out of bed to turn on the light.
So I'll (I'll) Just (Just) sit here (Just sit here)
writing songs with a couple of friends singing
"I don't know what i'm doing with my life"
And no matter how you put it
you think I'm fucking worthless.
Ya no matter how you put it
you just think i'm fucking worthless.
I'm not really one for keeping track
but I'll remember everyone that's turned their
back on me
and I'm so damn tired.
'Cause I surround myself with half killed beers
and half ass friends over these wasted years.
Over these wasted years.
These wasted years.
And no matter how you put it
you just think I'm fucking worthless.
Ya no matter how you put it
you just think i'm fucking worthless.

Brimorton

Walking down Brimorton at four in the morning
seems like my weekly routine.
Grinding my teeth
what the fuck is wrong with me
I'm putting up with all this bad luck.
Stopped at the corner store
to see what I could afford
Bought a pack and I don't even smoke.
Walking down Brimorton at four in the morning
missed the bus and then I got soaked.
The rain in this town never seems to die down
so I guess i'm glad that I have you.
Something to look forward to
Every time that I mess up
you talk me through instead
of judging what I'd said.
Passing by your house wishing I was there Instead.
I was there instead
You need to swallow your pride
you're just too fucking high
I can't deal with this shit anymore
I'm surrounded by losers whose only ambition
Is drink till' their face hits the floor.
And what was it all for?
what was it all for?
I'm bitter and I have a reason
to sing all these things 'cause I'm trying to see
All the patterns and signs that connect to my life
so I can divide
The truth from the lies. x2
