Five Roses - Cadence Weapon, Blue Hawaii

Wild roses, wild roses, where I’m from

Five roses, five roses, flashing up above

I was eating like a kid

Back when Mac moved into our building in Outremont

Used to treat a rack like it was a lick

Used to make a band, thought I made it big

Used to fill the float up with Lauriers

Back when I was living on Laurier

Going in and out, catching interference

We should hit the show, we should make appearance

Wading through the snow, hope they go and clear it

Hope that anybody shows, hope they wanna hear it

See the pink sky like Sean said

We’d think about life getting better

Used to hang around by the train tracks

Wish that we could do this forever

Five roses

Five roses

Paradise lost, looking at the cross

Been there so long, think that we forgot

Even though they kept the skyscrapers low

We was playing «How high can you go?»

Can you take the heat?

Can you brave the cold?

Going in and out, broken phone

Don’t know what to say to the folks at home

Feels like I’m fading out, feel like no one knows

Blind to the fact that it isn’t what it’s seeming

They’re putting on a show, did it for the wrong reason

Shallow thoughts, they got some people going off the deep end

At a great cost, no, it isn’t just the weekend

This was a place that I dreamed of

Even bought myself a blue raincoat

Oratory bells could redeem us

Probably won’t ever be the same though

Five roses

How I miss you

Five roses

Cut a path to the clearing

In a Laval forest

I had holes in my ceiling

But it didn’t seem that important

The days were revealing

The times that we shared

The years are retreating

Going back there

Five roses

How I miss you

Five roses
