Greyheart Vancouver
​(Verse 1)
The SkyTrain hums a low-grade static
Against a ceiling made of slate
We’re living in the cinematic
Of a city taught to hesitate
Passed a coffee shop on Hastings
Where the steam is rising like a ghost
Just another morning wasting
On the edge of the edge of the coast.
​(Chorus)
Oh, my Greyheart Vancouver
Where the mountains hide their heads in shame
The salt air is a velvet mover
And the sidewalk doesn't know my name
We’re half-submerged and holding on
To a neon light before it’s gone
Wash me out in the November rain
Greyheart, do it all again.Verse 2)
Glass towers reaching for a ceiling
That hasn't cracked in twenty days
There’s a strange and heavy feeling
In the Granville midday haze
You said the ocean was a promise
But it looks more like a boundary line
Between the people that we were
And the ones we’re leaving far behind.
​(Bridge)
And if the sun breaks through for a second or two
We won't know what the hell we’re supposed to do
We’ll squint our eyes at the sudden glare
And wish for the mist in our tangled hair
Because the damp is the only thing that’s true
