about

This song is about seeing Steven Page play at Vancouver Folk Fest in the summer of 2009.

lyrics

I took the five best songs
When I quit the band
Didn't hear them on radio
But you know them if you're a fan

They're gonna keep the name
I'll keep my tattoo
Hurt to get it done anyway
Why hurt to get it removed?

I took the five best songs
And I'm gonna play them
You bring your cello and I'll
See if I can replicate

The way we used to sing together
I am sick of being a bellwether

In the eye of the storm
It all seems overblown, yeah
I'm gonna perform
And sing both parts alone, then

I will write five new songs
And I will be honest
I'm glad not to have the sneaking
Feeling I don't want this

The way we used to sing together
I am sick of being a bellwether
You can't help but grieve, I get it
I'd much rather be untethered

I took the five best songs
And I'm gonna play them
You bring your cello and I'll
See if I can take it
