- A Silent Army In The Trees
What will you find, where will you be
When you've got to trade for company
Those plastic guns and infantry
For a silent army in the trees?
Well, this ain't the woods behind the house
There ain't nobody screaming out
For you to come inside and eat
You're just holding your friends and watching them bleed
- Arrows Of Desire
On a ruined wind
To see our promise right in front of you
Silver barbs to crash the heart
Those gates so irremovable
Oh we can beg, we will bend again
Oh we can beg that we will bend again
Up in thin air we lie in wait
- Avalanche
One foot in front of the other
One foot back to counter it
Days like these you've got to find it in some other way
It's all or nothing baby
Avalanche, start inside of me
Avalanche, down through the trees
Avalanche, start inside of me
- Comfortable criminals
she's a ditz but i don't worry about that
trade her in when her mouth gets bigger than her ass
i guess i'm a winner because when i open my mouth i just get thinner
sometimes it's an inconvenience but i don't worry about that
hit or miss, well i'll let you worry about that
trade 'em in when their egos get bigger that their fans
i guess i'm a sinner because when i open my mouth there ain't no winner
- Full Moon In Pisces
On Monday
It always rains
Or at least it has
For as long as
I can remember
Some things you can
Try and change
But Christmas
- Hello Time Bomb
I found me a reason
So check me tomorrow
We'll see if I'm leaking
Push and push and push till it hurts
My devil's on rollerskates
Down at the roller rink
Picking up chicks for me
Ones that push and push and push till it hurts
- Last Of The Ghetto Astronauts
It gets dark around here early
Sometimes the moon will follow you in the middle of the day
Waiting to be found, we were just standing around
With nothing really much to say
I didn't know any better
You didn't think that we should
Said we're gonna burn down the night
- Lights Of Endangered Species
I saw a magician cut you in half so bloodless
Daunted I applauded
Looking around at all there eyeless faces
You crept into me and stood alone
Arms stretched out to nothing
Like the memory of something gone wrong
Slipped the darkness down to the harbour
- Oh Be Joyful
Here I go
Pop my skull ready to lose control
Cruising slow
Live your life outside the life you know
Oh be Joyful!
Cause that shit spreads
Oh be Joyful!
- Sort of a Protest Song
I can't remember 1989
I can't remember what you look like
Cause I was dimed
Wasn't the whole world at the time?
A robot heart for my sleep in girl
She knows CPR so I can come back to life
Ya I can come back to life
- The Vancouver National Anthem
Out of the alleys, our needle strewn fields
Into the sunlight that the brochures reveal
Like snakes come for rabbits and rabbits for meals
Where the oar and the axe flies
Well this is our story (stick to it) but it ain't the truth
Cause the truth's just for liars that need an excuse
Around here love's a gangster and charity's the proof
- Weapon
Here by my side, an angel
Here by my side, the devil
Never turn your back on me
Never turn your back on me, again
Here by my side, it's Heaven
Here by my side, you are destruction
Here by my side, a new colour to paint the world
