I step on the streets of my hometown
You know it has changed since I was running around
I walk under the lights of whyte avenue
I don’t reco0gnize the shops and \i don’t know who is who
But the streets still the same, the river runs through
The black dogs there and the commie too
YEG
I try to get down towm buit the btraffics insane
The closed all the roads and opened bike lanes
Speed bumpos and potholes are wrecking my car
When you onlky drive 30 you cant get to far
Traffic is driving m,e out of my mind
Why do they do it all at the same time,
Well \I just got back but I don’t think I can stay
All of you people get out of my way!
I drove down to blue bridge and smoked a big joint
Like I did when I was 15
I walk down jasper right by the silk hat
Man it feels liker a dream
The sidetracks gone and new city to
They live in our memories
When I’m onstage at the starlite room
You know that when I feel free
I love this whole album, But the real thing that pulls me into this album is the last song: My Soul To Keep. One line that deep down resonants with me is "i tell myself that i'm worth more than this.
sayin "if i were to leave this world, i'd truly be missed"
"think of all the people you've made smile.
just know that in their hearts
that you were worth their while" its the kind of thing that goes through a persons head when they're down and the daily motivation to keep going. 10/10 deletedviper
An album that originally I didn't take a liking to; until I heard the lyrics. It slowly has grown on me to the point where I have ordered the vinyl. Lovely way to remember those 100 years ago. Martin Flaherty
