Montreal

I'll give ya another hour, then I gotta run

gotta fly away and leave ya to fall

Leave ya to stuff your flowers in a shotgun

and blow their petals all over the wall

I know ya think you're on a crusade

you got a world to save, and it's hangin' by a thread

I know ya think you gotta be brave

but there's nothin' but a slave inside your head

Oh, I know you're livin' in a dream world

oh, even though it must seem real now

Everything will fall

I wanna go back to Montreal

So you wanna rise above duality

you wanna transcend both day and night

Well, I guess I'm old fashioned

I just don't share your passion

for a never changing eternal twilight

But go on and give oblivion a shot

go on and fade to grey if you got to

And maybe you'll do better without God

and maybe I'll do better without you

Well, I wish that were true

and I wish that were you sittin' across from me

instead of this impersonation of who you used to be

Everything that we were comes down to this

and all we built were sinkin' ships

and by tomorrow, we'll both just be shadows on the wall

Take me back before we lost it all

I wanna go back to Montreal

To Montreal

To Montreal

Take me back to Montreal
