Ex-Life - RIPÉ

Trinity-Bellwoods Park

After dark

Find me in the crater

We can go make fire

No one’s there most nights

Afterwards we can drift

Slightly west

Ossington forever

There’s a bar there, knows me by name

At least I think

When you’re a suburb kid

Edging on the 6

The city sings to you (no no)

Painted Lady, call the tune

Now you’re a former home

I have grown

Chose to go

And I’m not sure what to do

With the memory of you

With the memory of you

Ex life

I know it’s rude to ask, but

Please keep me on your mind as

I throw you in my tail lights

Ex life

I know I don’t deserve to

Make a home in your dreams when

I’m trying to hit the pavement

Call up a high school friend

How’ve you been?

We’ve been grown separately for years

That’s been good to me

Wonder if we’ve all changed

Kind of strange

I am usually the last one

To recognize growth

Now it’s all I see

There’s been a couple people buried and a couple people born

What can you do?

(no no)

Tomorrows chasing either way

Even if you can’t stay

For a drink

And some nostalgia that’s ok

So nice to see you still

So nice to see you

Ex life

I know it’s rude to ask but

Please keep me on your mind as

I throw you in my tail lights

Ex life

I know I don’t deserve to

Make a home in your dreams

When I’m trying To hit the pavement

You know you make it hard to go

And you’ll always be halfway home

And when I do come back you’ll know

And when I do come back you’ll know

Oh

I remember where I came from

In Toronto it started

With my brothers it grew some

Oh

I remember where I came from

In Toronto it started

With my brothers it grew some

Oh

I remember where I came from

In Toronto it started

And in Boston it grew some

Oh

I remember where I came from

In Toronto it started

WITH MY BROTHERS IT GREW SOME

Ex life

I know it’s rude to ask but

Please keep me on your mind, now

I’ve got you in my headlights

Ex life

I know I don’t deserve to

Make a home in your dreams but

I’m trying to take you with me

Ex Life

You know i know its rude to ask

But please keep me on your mind

As i try to throw it back to

Ex Liiiiiife

I know I don’t deserve to

Make a home in your dreams

Now im trying to take you with me

All that we are

Collapsing stars

Each of us particles

Dust under the Sun
