Today's gonna be a bad day Feeling like a garbage bag Spilling its guts All over the place All over the place Today's gonna be an awful day It's dark at 4:30, it feels so late Canadian winter Canadian winter days I can't believe she's on my side And it just feels better than anything That thing you do with your lips Is keeping me awake at night But I don't mind I'm hopeless, I'm in lost place Woke up at a quarter to six Just to catch the bus And see her face Just to see her face And I'm coming down again And I need someone to help me outta this I'm losing the slowest race The slowest race

Out in the sun and dressed in plaid You're beautiful as ever when you're sad I carry these folk songs on my back The colour's on your hair and on the grass The snow has come and the air cut flat You're all I want Honey, I'll wait for you Honey, I can wait for you Baby hold my hands, they're black with art Hadn't seen you nearly a week apart I break these feelings over my guitar I'll save your words and put em in a jar You don't know it but you break my heart You watch me fall Watch the snow white out the earth Watch the snow white out the earth I play these songs I write for you Guitar on my hip making me bruise I'm down and out and feeling blue I'm out of sleep and out of booze I'll play until I bleed from my fingertips Until my voice is shot Honey, I play for you Honey, I play this for you Under the trees and dressed in white You're beautiful as ever when you sigh I carry these love songs on my mind The colour's on your cheek and in the sky The snow is gone and the sun cut flat I need you now Honey, if you'll be with me Honey, you can sing harmony

i think about the sea before i go before i go to sleep i dive into it's heart and sink into bliss i sink into bliss how can i love you when you're not there for me darling, you're not there for me why are you so far away? when all i do is try to keep you close, keep you close i can't believe how bad you've got me you're killing me goddammit you're killing me; oh i think about the people that i meet the people that i meet there's not that many i like as much as you that i like as much as you how could i love you when you weren't there for me darling, you're weren't there for me hardhearted, the feeling's departed i can't wait to leave, cause there's nothing here left for me i can't believe how bad you had me you were killing me goddammit you're still killing me; oh

Snowfall 03:28
I can't sleep at night cause sleep is the enemy These thoughts run my mind It gets the best of me Snowfall glows pink from the city lights The skyline's on fire, feels like morning all night Can't remember what's changed me from before Brooding thoughts tend to bite the mind to a sore I had a dream that made me dream no more Heart aching shot myself down by the shore Heart aching shot myself down by the shore
