Third set of souls worn through this winter
Can't see my feet for the blisters
Is there no more that I can offer
For in this offal I am mired all for what
All for what
I am naught but a pair of boots
And a weapon I hold like a lover
If you will stay with me
Then you, you will be my brother
Another fortnight at attention
Leaving every wound and bruise unmentioned
By now I've soaked right through the bandage
And I'm not sure how long I can manage now
Let me out
I will not have been in vain
I will not be silenced by my pain
I will not have been in vain
I will not be silenced by my pain

Uneasy lies the head that has repeatedly hit ground
And every takedown makes the back pain harder to kick out of
My two thirds is your three fourths
I can't measure up and it can't be forced
I won't be needed as your dark horse
counting lights is what I'm for
If you stay by my side,
your title dreams are through
The numbers don't lie
and they spell disaster for you
I am one third tired and emotional
at least a quarter braindead
or maybe just hormonal
I am one third the way
to being done with all my moaning
I'm 50% sure I'd rather be on my lonesome
If you stay by my side,
your title dreams are through
The numbers don't lie
and they spell disaster for you
I've been thinking too much
it's because my ideas ran out
it's only a matter of time
before you see my health's in doubt
Most who try to shock the world
will simply fall flat on their face
Is there really any shame
In living just to dodge disgrace
If you stay by my side,
your title dreams are through
The numbers don't lie
and they spell disaster for you
I cannot meet your eyes
I'm scared of the truth
The numbers don't lie
and they spell disaster for you

this city smells like pulp and moss
the docks grow cold but bear no frost
and these fish and chip bars
blowing heat on to tourist patios
that bear no tourists, when canadians get cold
I know
It's rough
but it's all that we have here
it's all that we have here
the rain is silent, and so am I
this city sucks, I couldn't lie
the mall is looking more complex
with every nostalgic silhouette
I hate everybody here
no-one will leave me alone
this place is home
I hate admitting it
we missed the bus
so let us walk home
I'll miss the bus
I'd rather walk home alone
[aggression]
I'm piss drunk, at 2 am
the city lights flicker and go dim
it seems like
just another normal night
it seems like
just another normal night
another normal night

I can still feel where your hand
once alighted on my wrist
and I am still healed by every constellation
drawn with every kiss
catching sight
or sound or smell or melody
in everything I write
of everything you taught me
all this rain still hasn't cleaned you off this street
all this pain will never set anyone free
and I have been left with cracks on
every bone inside of me
but I don't need your song to sleep
I concede that there is still a tether
not a flame, just a feather
I will not plead, already did by pen and ink
we've had our time to think
gather fiends
we let them in between our teeth
it's obscene
I let you be my enemy
all this rain still hasn't cleaned you off this street
all this pain will never set anyone free
and I have been left with cracks on
every bone inside of me
but I don't need your
help

Rebuild

If you permit, we'll clear the sirens from your mind
If you allow, we'll tell you of the solace you can find
Tempting as it is to hide your injuries away
Do not conceal just how low you've been laid
Have you been split into your disparate parts
Have you been screwed directly through all of your harts
Even as the air above your head fills with shrapnel
Driving you into the ground
We will rebuild ourselves
We will rebuild ourselves
And we will rebuild this town
Will you pitch in to clear the rubble from the streets
And get your neighbors back up onto their feet
We don't wish for death, to be buried for good
to be honest I can see why you would
Now you persist in spite of peril fore and aft
The life that you lead is the legend you craft
Even though supplies are low and chaos surrounds you
Grinding your sanity down
We will rebuild ourselves
We will rebuild ourselves
And we will rebuild this town

I wish you well
even as I
wish you away
I will see you in hell
lying in the beds we made
