Lyrics

It wasn't so cold yesterday. I walked along the river path down where the water starts spinning like car tires. I wore the sweater my father wore... the one he got from his girlfriend before he quit his job and met my mother. there's a train that runs from here to churchill mb. I never knew that churchill was so far away. there's a woman on the bridge from my street... I just nod my head, I don't think I remember her name. there's a whistle that blows everyday at 4

I met my brother yesterday outside the place we went to school and he said he thought I should be running out of patience. we walked for hours until it snowed, out past the cemetary gates where you can stand and watch the plains taking off. there's a face that looks exactly like yours does. "it's all I've got" he said "its really not that bad." there's a reason why I'm here I can't remember. the past few years have been the shortest years I've ever had. there's a whistle that blows everyday at 4. the sound of train cars loud as the crying from the house I live next door to
