Dawn breaks
Take in the view
See the world change from the one that I once knew
Walk past the pot shop
Owned by a cop
Bring back the day when someone would've glued those locks
Pigs were lurking in the parkette
So never make a wrong step or it's a ride to Cherry Beach
Now amnesty is a dream
Legalization was a scheme
And they lie through their fucking teeth
And the arrests won't stop and the prices don't drop
As they all the profits roll in
So now I'm caught up in the past
Just trying to change the facts
We over-wrote the map
Just trying to back
When you crack the façade you can see the truth:
We lived our lives like they were only ours to lose
Where was the place we used for shows?
Now it's buried underneath where the condo grows
We were the lichen
We let them in
As we rose, all the other lights dimmed
I remember Dean
Handing out his zine
And flyers for upcoming shows
Now its been a few years
I wonder if he is still here?
Sadly that's the way life goes
And we all got to stop once we make it to the top
And look at all the damage we've done
So now I'm caught up in the past
Just trying to change the facts
We over-wrote the map
Now I'm trying to get back
When you crack the façade you can see the truth:
We lived our lives like they were only ours to lose
So now I'm caught up in the past
Just trying to change the facts
We over-wrote the map
I'm trying to get back
Crack the façade and you'll see the truth:
We lived our lives like they were only ours to lose
