about

(a song about the bits and pieces of Ottawa)

lyrics

I will keep walking east
To where you lived on Inverlea
I'm not afraid of sentiment except when I so obviously am
You can't even call this rain
It's only fogging up again
I'm no closer to understanding why you love this weather
No closer to understanding why we're not together
I'm pulling at my cuffs and I am fucking up your sweater

I checked all your favourite haunts
The alley by the restaurant
The old abandoned factory
The corner by the library
The warehouses they're tearing down
It's not even your part of town
But I will just keep walking in the hopes that you'll feel better
I'm pulling at my cuffs, but I will stitch them back together
No closer to understanding why you love this weather

Put down the phone
And get yourself back home

What is it that you hope to find
Sadness of a different kind
A note that doesn't quite resolve
A puzzle that'll never solve
I don't know much more than you
All my books are overdue
I'm no closer to understanding why you love this weather
No closer to understanding why we're not together
I'm pulling at my cuffs and I am fucking up your sweater

Barn barn raising
Heart heart breaking
Wide awaken
Rearranging

Put down the phone
And get yourself back home
