Emperor X - Canada Day lyrics

We met on the bus And it was canada day We crossed into detroit, and the heat was insane But the station was calm And she walked out of view Threw a brick with a note through the ticket counter window It said: i'd rather live in my basement I'd rather cultivate palm trees I'd rather move to new england I'd rather shatter and freeze Then i ran out the door She ran out of it too The cops gave chase, but they got confused So we escaped to her apartment On the 30th floor She had a great view But that only counts for the non-blind That's why: i'd rather live in my basement I'd rather cultivate palm trees I'd rather move to new england I'd rather shatter and freeze I said, seriously You're sleeping alone You know that's a waste of your recharge time But she responded to me Like she governed her home Nobody sleeps here, i never sleep here I hear they're draining the lake now I hear they're shutting the fountains off They plan to alter the shoreline They plan to make it all clean So let's set fire to both sides Let's leave a message they'll hear - let's scream Let's send a signal through coax Let's have them bend the terrain, destroy the lake and make a stream
