Montreal

Early version of the lyrics:

Mother can you see me? Cause I'm trying to find myself

As children we set fires but these fires they burned out

This city keeps on changing, now this house is not a home

Our lives keep rearranging leaves a chill inside my bones

Its like the cold winds of Montreal

Brother are you out there, are you headed to the sun

You tied your wings on tightly but they always come undone

We do it for our families and the hearts that fall asleep

We do it for each other, get it right eventually

I am you, you are me

Lyrics

Mother can you see me?
'Cause I'm trying to find myself
As children we set fires
But these fires, they burned out
Burned out, burned out
The city keeps on changing
Now this house is not a home
Our lives keep rearranging
Leaves a chill inside my bones
My bones, my bones

Feels like the cold winds of Montréal
The cold winds of Montréal
This winter can take its toll
But it can't take our lives

Brother, are you out there?
Are you headed to the sun?
You tied your wings on tightly
But they always come undone
Undone, undone

Feels like the cold winds of Montréal
The cold winds of Montréal
This winter can take its toll
But it can't take our lives

Mother can you see me?
'Cause I'm trying to find myself
As children we set fires
But these fires, they burned out
Burned out, burned out

Feels like the cold winds of Montréal
The cold winds of Montréal
This winter can take its toll
But it can't take our lives
