C&C (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

I’ve been seeking corners and cracks,
My room feels empty. I’ll pass.

My Montreal (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

There was a time, when summer was on our side.
At least you could pretend.
This room’s on fire. We’ve slammed into the end.
We’re covered in blood.

She said to me,
My heart is already far away.

Wait. What are you saying?
You still love me. You’re my Montreal.

Finally, all sex stories expire.
Ours got totaled in bed.
Add my name to the bottom of your list.
Now I’m covered in blood.

She said to me,
My heart is already far away.

Wait. What are you saying?
You still love me. You’re my Montreal.

For a second,
For the sake of it.
You’re my Montreal.

California (Lyrics: Julien Fillion/Darren Edwards)

For what it seems it’s destiny
we’re all to blame for Evian’s sake.
With Kansas behind it felt so right.
We’re out of state. We’re out of there.

Today California got so dry.
Today California got so wild.
We hear the screams at night.
Our friends will fall like flies.

We gained so much but wasted all.
Chances are that our luck is ignescent.

Today California got so dry.
Today California got so wild.

Our back’s against the door.
The barricade is about to fall.

It’s been dawning it’s been raging
every body’s lost everybody’s lost
Today California silenced out.
Today California silenced out.

Today California got so dry.
Today California got so wild.
We long for screams at night.
The silence. The pain. The closing eyes.

Taken (Lyrics: Julien Fillion/Darren Edwards)

As a man I used to be so self-absorbed.
Taking through life. Taking, taking and again.
Five Junes ago, she slipped into our world
tiny in my arms. Giving, giving and again.

I tell you I can’t breathe
as she’s pulling away.
I hear my daughter screaming
as she’s driving away.

Working endless hours. far from her.
Fallen. Into bed. Midnight. You’re gone. It’s cold, so cold.
Outdated justice, no breaks for me
You knew the game. You played it right. You’ve won.

I tell you I can’t breathe
as she’s pulling away.
I hear my daughter screaming
as she’s driving away.

Absolute disbelief
vindictive betrayal.
She sure did fool the judge that day.
Oh please don’t take her from me.

Hit me in the back, James
I can’t breathe, I’m choking now.
Hit me in the back, James
I can’t breathe, I’m choking now.
Hit me in the back, James
I can’t breathe, I’m choking now.

…I’ve been taken, you won.

Le Départ (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

Un homme traverse le seuil de la porte, il est seul,
valise à la main, Le regard vide, il dépose son bagage,
s’assoit sur un lit de chambreur, et s’oxygène d’un soupir profond.

Il vient tout juste de laisser derrìère lui parents, amis, maîtresses…
et ce, afin de réaliser son rêve. Celui d’être libre, de n’avoir d’attentes
en personne et d’éliminer toutes dépendances affectives.

“In Nowhere there’s Now Here,” voilà la phrase- réconfort
qu’il aura pour les années à venir. Ainsi, il est désormais pourvu d’une lourde tâche,
celle de faire la liaison entre le conditionnel passé et le future simple.

Signé l’homme qui s’entendit.

Die Living (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

It’s been days
we’ve been away for a while
we ran away it feels wild.
Evidently, we can’t go back
we’ve stepped on to the plate.

Hold on to the steering wheel would you
As I rise above the windshield.
Wind’s in my hair and I love you
I’m so glad we are together in this.
The last open road begins.

I’d rather die living
chase my fate next to you.
Around us time disappears
our suffering’s not the end.

Roadblocks ahead
we didn’t see this one coming
the motel room’s surrounded.
New Mexico wasn’t enough
we should have left this country for good.

Throw the money bag
under the bed.
Load me full the 9mm.
Hurricane Gale force winds begin
bullets fly so freely through the moment, it’s insane.

I’d rather die living
chase my fate next to you.
Around us time disappears
our suffering’s not the end.

Heaven’s so sweet
in this room the end is near.
I’m falling. To my knees,
Everything’s in this box.
Will you marry me?

I’d rather die living
chase my fate next to you.
Around us time disappears
our suffering’s not the end.

Tsunami (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

We’re chasing reality through something unreal
just because we found it doesn’t mean we should stay.
We’re chasing reality through something unreal.
Merge your hands to my head. Don’t you worry. It’s gonna hit.

In this imagined scene
we’re drifting in a paradox
we’re lost in our paradox
we’re trapped in our paradox.
In this emergency.
Paradox. We’re betrayed.

All Those Shades (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

Common sense
sitting outside here today.
I’ve got it all.
Money and fame, you standing by my side.
Hit Me.

Total perfectness
something in the way passing by.
You felt it too
I’ll tell what it’s like on the other side.
Hit Me.

It a type of hurricane, stunning force pulling me away.
Hold my hand tight on this Sunday afternoon.
It’s a type of hurricane, crazed force, memories collide.
Hold my hand still on this Sunday afternoon.

Longing forgiveness
there’s only room for one on this ship..wreck
Sullivan was right
I’m destined to levitate weightlessly.

Common sense
shut outside here today,
so patiently.
You even said you’ll wait until I win this fight.

It a type of hurricane, stunning force pulling me away.
Hold my hand tight on this Sunday afternoon.
It’s a type of hurricane, crazed force, memories collide.
Hold my hand still on this Sunday afternoon.

We will soon become free lovers.
Time will send me back to us. My memories collide.
Time will send me back to us. My memories collide.
Time will send me back to us. My memories collide.

No Panic (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

It doesn’t matter if red wine smeared your dress, last night
you had the best date of all time.
He probably won’t call you today or tomorrow. Won’t last.
Normal, he’s a guy. He likes you, Amy told us.

It doesn’t matter if you wrecked your daddy’s vintage car, last night
he’s simply glad you’re still intact.
It doesn’t matter how bad you scored on the SATs. Just write it again.
Hey, you got in at USC. Anyway, Harvard is so cold.

Don’t you get it. Please. No panic.
It doesn’t make any difference now.

It doesn’t matter if you burned all the bridges in Sin City, last night
they kicked out of the Bellagio.
It could be worse. You’re now forced to trade your moneyed life for what:
a pure comfort filled with nothing else than you.

Don’t you get it. Please. No panic.
It doesn’t make any difference now.

Who cares if these storms keep hitting. Walls collapse.
As long as you’re in my sight. Let it come. Let it rage.

Don’t you get it. Please. No panic.
It doesn’t make any difference now.

Corners & Cracks (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

I’ve been seeking corners and cracks.
My room feels empty. I’ll pass.
My room feels empty. I’ll pass.

It’s been a week since you’ve been gone
would you feel lucky. I’m done.

Welcome to my world.
It’s so cold in here
a river runs through it.
I might just change my mind.

I try to reach in to shore
the current is pulling me down
acid taste in my lungs.
I drown.

We’re not in Marvel World
I wish we had several lives to spare
I wasted the one I held.
Now I’m gone…

Now I drown,
Now I drown.

Pointless to moan any sound.
If the river gets shallow, I swear
I’ll serve the servant’s shadow.
Now I’m done…

I’ve been seeking corners and cracks.
My room feels empty. I’ll pass.
My room feels empty. I’ll pass.

Our House (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

Because of you…
the screams, the tears, insane.
It’s in our house tonight.
It’s in our hearts tonight.
Because of you…

Fall (Lyrics: Julien Fillion/Rheault)

The weight of the night is falling on me.
Obscurity down into my veins.
A cold wind is brushing against my cheeks,
And winter’s coming, it’s on its way.

Getting close, throwing down,
the weakest souls in its way.
Getting close, crushing down,
the poets and their ghosts.

Today today fall is holding on.
Would you turn the city lights off.
Don’t leave, stay here, fall..

The leaves are trying to escape death,
by holding tight to what seems strong.
The moon’s roaming, the city lights,
Countless stars are hanging up there.

Spying our dreams, lighting our souls,
in the deepest part of the night.
Spying our dreams, lighting our souls,
they set our clock (watch) still.

Today today fall is holding on.
Would you turn the city lights off.
Don’t leave, stay here, fall.

Vampires are Cool (Lyrics: Julien Fillion)

They chased us all night
in nowhere there’s now here.
We’re alright
cause vampires are cool,
vampires are cool.

Hunted by the kiss
your lips should be mine.
I’m right
vampires are cool,
vampires are cool.

We’re stuck, in today’s common sense.
Take a round, come around,
love it, chase it, kick it, play it.

We’re stuck, in today’s common sense.
Take a round, come around,
love it, chase it, kick it, suck it dry…

Vampires are cool.
