Already Dead

Your broken nose is quite a sight, a blatant tendency to fight
A swollen proof, no lack of guilt, and dripping blood on Nana’s quilt
You sigh and tell me that scientifically we’re already dead!
I heard about the birds and bees, I learned that herbivores eat leaves
And we began as fish in the sea – that’s why I failed biology
In school they tell me that scientifically we’re already dead!
A knife through the heart, a shot to the head, we’re already dead!
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We’re already dead, we’re already dead, we’re already dead, we’re already dead!
But the beat in my veins, it feels awfully strange when I think that I’m dead.

Dagger

Can you remember the days when all you used to say was held together by everything just going your way?
Do you remember the summer rain? The water was a welcome change, we were running dry so the rain helped dull the pain.
Whoa, oh, oh.
Is this your dagger or another’s? Is this your dagger that you wield?
Who put this dagger beneath him? This dagger breaks the hearts of steel.
Wait, it’s a sword that she wields and she’s thrusting it on the boys with no shields.
They turn to run – can’t run she’s hot on their heels
It’s a sword of misery she’s brandishing for all to see
Got to get her back, oh look, look, look at what she’s done to me!
Whoa, oh, oh.
Is this your dagger or another’s? is this your dagger that you wield?
Who put this dagger beneath him? This dagger breaks the hearts of steel.
Whoa, oh, oh.
Is this your dagger or another’s? is this your dagger that you wield?
Who put this dagger beneath him? This dagger breaks the hearts of steel.
And when those steel hearts are broken. When the wounding is through.
I’ll just be sitting here and hoping that that dagger isn’t you.

Eve's Apple

Honey, you don’t seem to have gotten it quite right
But a slip of the tongue will surely cause a fight
Always leave the speaking for the capable one
You’re still talking, that’s the reason you’re undone.
You come, you go and leave the stench of decay
Wilting every good thing that stands in your way
Watching beautiful burn bright in terror
Long gone were the times when none were fairer
Bite your tongue and tongue in cheek
Too sour from the taste of your bitter reek
Do the scapegoats you gather help you sleep?
But the desert is too full from the sins you reap.
Honey, you don’t seem to have gotten it quite right
But a slip of the tongue will surely cause a fight
Always leave the speaking for the capable one
You’re still talking, that’s the reason you’re undone.
Bite your tongue and tongue in cheek
Too sour from the taste of your bitter reek
Do the scapegoats you gather help you sleep?
We’re counting goats instead of counting sheep
But the desert is too full from the sins you reap.

Meteor

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes and there it goes
I wonder why I let it go
Too wrong to make it right
Fumbling through an endless night
Here it comes
Steer this caravan I’m blinded
The fire winding through the lighted way
We’ve stowed away what’s underneath
Only to have what’s shaped beneath
Chipped away.

Vitamins

These sunshine rays should be bringing better days
Should chase the winter blues away – vitamin D.
But I’m here and you are there, the quickest way to you is through the air
I need the straightest line, a ray of sunshine.
We were told that growing up is growing old
That we’d always be hot or cold, no in-between.
So I’ll take vitamins that make me want to lose instead of want to win all the arguments
Oh these vitamins!
I’ll desist this stopping when you start
Close the distance to your heart
And I will close my hand around yours, oh I’ll do my part.
We’ll thank the Lord, and I’ll take my vitamins.
You know I’ll take my vitamins.

Air Marshal Landing Toronto, Ontario
Three brothers, not paternal, but brothers nonetheless. Music that is instantly recognizable, yet different. A mix of midnight optimism and afternoon bitterness, where daydreams and reality meet for biscuits and tea. Love, lies, humour, uncertainty, and confession - a soundtrack to our lives. ... more
