Troublemaker 02:11
No bother, no art It's no bother, no art Troublemaker from the start, No bother, no art I'm a troublemaker from the start romance romance

SSSnake Pit 03:43
When I've felt empty And there's no way out When you touch the bottom And nothing comes out Cast around For new distraction Can't open up space Can't motivate action Bottom of the pit Snake pit in Dawson When the sky turns black And summer's killed by autumn You know I've been here before But each time it's new It's taught me some things Did you learn them to? Bring someone in Show them your home But they just breeze through And you're on your own What is it worth? This patch of the shore Do you feel anything that you didn't feel before And if you hold onto it For all of your life Does it make you more whole In the dark of the night

Veins 02:25
Hello love, my old friend I trust I'll see you You again I've felt empty and I've felt pain Scattered over the treetops And into my veins In the shipyard of dreams, In the harbour of pain The cars underwater, the landmarks remain To touch the big blue Touch the big grey Letter from the edge of peace, From the disarray The salt in the air The mist on my skin The wind in my hair The state I am in

If I come back to you Will you fall to the sea Will we hang on St. Paul Street Will you set yourself free I keep dreaming of bands That I'm not in Dream of performers That rise above the din Dream of a cadence That I've heard before And I haven't felt this way In 10 years or more I'm not with it, But I can get into it Ghosts in the audience And in the booth Chalk on the sidewalk And beers on the roof A cold mist rolls in And gives me a sheen A companion stands waiting That I've never seen I'm not with it, But I can get into it

Dance dance over the melancholy fray Everyone's making it finding success And in the dust of their trails they left you a mess Dance dance over the melancholy fray The unbelievable cold is on it's way back It brings attention to detail and I'm back on track Dance dance over the melancholy fray There's a footpath where you can keep going Centuries of footfalls have etched it's knowing The cliffs, the water Once here you can't forget your father Dance dance over the melancholy fray Another one's free, but only for a price So it's not the same thing when taken twice It benefits them when you don't understand When a good explanation is a helping hand Dance dance over the melancholy fray Cold calculations are just what you'd expect The result's a landslide of neglect I held onto this vintage '80s stereo In a cottage or a house in rural Ontario Dance dance over the melancholy fray Remnants of a time things started falling down 30 years later we haven't turned this thing around Dance dance over the melancholy fray

Last night's parade took us to the den Where the youth are howling for a fleeting zen A moment is unpacked in a blister of light But doubt festers, "will we make it through the night?" Another one's free but only for a price So it's not the same thing if taken twice It benefits them when you don't understand When a good explanation is a helping hand
