Ripe
Ex-Life (Audiotree Live Version)
Trinity Bellwoods Park
After dark
Find me in the crater
We can go make fire
No one’s there most nights

Afterwards we can drift
Slightly west
Ossington forever
There's a bar there, knows me by name
At least I think

When you're a suburb kid
Edging on the 6
The city sings to you (no no)
Painted Lady, call the tune

Now you're a former home
I have grown
Chose to go
And I'm not sure what to do
With the memory of you
With the memory of you

Ex-life
I know it's rude to ask, but
Please keep me on your mind as
I throw you in my tail lights
Ex-life
I know I don't deserve to
Make a home in your dreams
When I'm trying to hit the pavement
Call up a high school friend
Almost friend
How ya been?
We've been grown separately for years
That's been good to me

Wonder if we've all changed
Kind of strange
I am usually the last one
To recognize growth
Now it's all I see

There's been a couple people buried and a couple people born
What can you do? (oh no)
Tomorrow's chasing either way

Even if you can't stay
For a drink
Couple drinks
And some nostalgia, that's ok
So nice to see you still
So nice to see you

Ex-life
I know it's rude to ask but
Please keep me on your mind as
I throw you in my tail lights
Ex-life
I know I don't deserve to
Make a home in your dreams
When I'm trying to hit the pavement
You know you make it hard to go
You'll always be halfway home
And when I do come back you'll know
And when I do come back you'll know

(Cue Semi-Coordinated Band Explosion)

I remember where I came from
In Toronto it started
With my brothers it grew some
Oh
I remember where I came from
In Toronto it started
With my brothers it grew some
Oh
I remember where I came from
In Toronto it started
And in Boston it grew some
Oh
I remember where I came from
In Toronto it started
WITH MY BROTHERS IT GREW SOME

Ex-life
I know it's rude to ask but
Please keep me on your mind, now
I've got you in my headlights
Ex-life
I know I don't deserve to
Make a home in your dreams but
I'm trying to take you with me
Ex-life
You know I know it's rude to ask
But please keep me on your mind
As I try to throw it back to
Ex-Liiiiiife
I know I don’t deserve to
Make a home in your dreams
Now I'm trying to take you with me
All that we are
Collapsing stars
Each of us particles
Dust under the sun
