The Greatest Life Unknown (c) 2011


Insert Your City

I feel the music inside me now and it’s made me numb
The night’s over, but the day’s still young
I’ll go wherever it takes me, and it’s such a rush
When it’s something that I can’t stop

It’s the energy in Montreal
That’s why it’s the place to be
It’s the music of New York City
That’s why I live so free
Well I’d never come back from Halifax
If not for this simple need
It’s my friends back home, Toronto,
That’s why you’re the place for me

There’s nothing to tell me when I’ve had enough
Of the good life, cause it’s a good life
I know you all feel the same way, and that’s why you’re here
So let’s drink up, clear the still air

It’s my friends back home, Peterborough
That’s why you’re the place for me

It’s the energy, insert your city!
That’s why it’s the place to be
When I’m in the mood, Chicago blues
That’s why I live so free
Well I’d never leave St. John’s George Street
If not for this simple need
It’s my friends back home, Lindsay, Ontario
That’s why you’re home to me

Lights Out

I can feel it in the air again
When the chill in the wind seeps through my skin into my bones
And my body starts shaking like something is escaping from my soul
I’m in a room full of people I will never really know
But we all come together for the sake of the show
