lyrics

You set fire to the bridges that I tried my best to build
And you took back all the dishes so the sink would never fill
With your worry that tomorrow will unfold the way it will
There's nothing you can do to keep yourself from standing still

Everything you do you do to make yourself look small
like a tiny crying victim curled close against the wall
But I saw right threw the darkness and now I'm the worst of all
there's nothing you can do but be a baby, learn to crawl

You told them I'm the reason that your life's a living hell
And you told them I'm the reason that you need to get some help
But I didn't do a thing to you when someone else might yell
Except pick up all your pieces when you couldn't calm the swell

I hope you grow up to have lots of kids
and I hope they leave you to be anarchists
I hope you grow old and get sick of this
and I hope you leave me alone
cause everything that's wrong today
is wrong because of...

about

Alaska D'Alifax Montreal, Québec

Alaska and her gang make music of many uses, you could:

- listen to it on the bus to keep creeps from talking to you;

- blast it through the Bluetooth speaker to wake your roommate up after she slept through her alarm; or

- write down all the lyrics to Winter EP and cut them out, rearranging them to form a ransom letter for the police.

- etc.
