Toronto, i'm trusting you to cut the caneĬause i'm saving vancouver for a rainy dayĭebts run deep, sleep is minced or marredĪnd it's all out war for the soul betweenĭreams that are hungry and the fears that feedīut i'll carry it, by chariot, through blood and blows North east south west (coast to coast), it ain't shit, it's just kicks, and like the road i'm going on and on and onĬanada always answers when i call her name North east south west (coast to coast), it ain't shit compared to loving you

North east south west (coast to coast), baby, the trouble that I get into

My body broke out in a sweat from seeing you in dreamsĪnd all i remember was it sounded, baby, like all hell breaking looseĪnd living for the moment that she marries meĪnd all manner of madness standing in my way It was bedlam in my bed that night, and like a silent scream

She kissed me like a chorus, said give them hell for usĪnd last drink of the night, last night in town, baby, this one is on the house So the girl behind the bar came over, and she took me aside It was last call at my local, and i stalled saying goodbye May your heart always be ardent, your conscience always clearĪnd succumb to the city and surrender, baby, i'll be waiting hereĪnd it got me all fired up, to go farawayĪnd make some ears ring from the sound of my singing, baby You can't condemn your love, to linger here and dieĬan't leave your dreams to chance or to a spirit in the sky With passion and pure provocation, summoned me and said: I was destined to die dreaming, when one day my best friend

The future is under fire, the past is gaining groundĪ continuous cold war between my home and my hometown
