lyrics

I don't wanna be some guy who makes his living lying
I don't wanna be some guy who always has to pretend

Seven long years I waited for a life I thought I was fated
Nothing now can make up what was lost
Combing my hair to one side
Trying so hard in vain to hide the dreams that freedom cost

I've learned not to really care how words vanish in the thin night air
It's in the wind
Went through emotions like paper towels
All the motions of adjectives and vowels
Where do I begin?

Because I'm not some dress up doll in the window of your local mall
Because I'm not some local loser, driving around in a rented cruiser

I don't wanna be some guy who's always in denial
I don't wanna be some guy, a model citizen

-Inspiration drips from every distorted and bent guitar note, down-but-not-out vocal phrasing, and sneered lyric. (Georgia Straight)
