lyrics

I met you in the spring time in the backyard of a punk house. offered you an ice cream sandwich & introduced myself. you drove from alberta in a van with your best friend. both our bands played shows & we traded our old records. you stayed for a whole month in the house I used to live in. smoking too many cigarettes & trying to forget all the secrets that you hid. I could see right through it & a couple times while drunk you told me bits & pieces about where you had come from. I had no idea how deep the pain went. I didn't know you well enough but tried to understand.
& I sung your songs in my head a month after you left.
a couple months went past & I saw you again in edmonton. everything seemed worse. sleeping on the couches of old friends because your house keys were back sunk in the atlantic. it was hard to talk. you seem confused. cursing all the numbered streets you knew & buying the cheapest six pack you could afford. feeling trapped by what was familiar. suppressing all of your desires & knowing the truth but choosing not to act, but you're much stronger than that.
I know you will get through.

"the official suckers do not suck. i imagine most of the kids at the show think they suck the least out of everyone who played. for such intricate songs, with lyrics which don't rhyme, i was amazed by how many people knew all the words..." - show review by byron.
