City and Colour – Two Coins Lyrics 11 years ago
I love they way this man writes,

North west is where I'm heading,
Underneath the golden sky.

it's so deep and it has so much meaning,
NorthWest he is always going to head back to Canada...
Known for the Northern Lights


I'm searching for wisdom
That every man seeks to find..........Every man wants to know they are doing the right thing...

I've got wicked thoughts brewing.
Many evil deeds I've done..
I'm looking for a reason,
For a reason not to run........

........ this verse clicks to me cause i think every man has to deal with having temptations and regrets we all battle.... some less, others... Me More than others
After being in the military, getting cheated on while deployed and then my recent ex...... I've been traveling or on the run.... from everything and myself...

Cuz I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance.
The way he sings this chorus.... It's so True.... I guess to me this line is whatever keeps you alive whatever keeps you whole, makes you want to stay alive, that slim ray of hope of things turning out for the better... it keeps us going. Whatever makes this hell bearable would be your light in a sense.

I've got no destination.
No place to call my own.
With dallas being on the road all the time i bet he doesn't really feel like he's ever settled down or really felt like he's had a home.... I can relate since I've stayed in about 30 different places and had to live outta duffle bags, luggage, and what not going from state to state, base to base, a few times countries... It takes a toll on you

I'll explore the constellations,
Til I find the course I'm mean to hone

I think he is trying to display his love for Canada because To Mr. Green, Home is Canada :3 But in America, Wisconsin is basically north of most of our country...... Be it north west, Or north east.


But come fever or come famine,
Come the biting winter cold,
Just put two coins upon my eyelids
So I can pay the boatman's toll

I love this verse also, probably my one of my favorites on this song.
the first two lines are implying if he were to die, be it disease infested or natural so be it. The last two lines are extremely significant. If you know Dallas, he doesn't really believe in, don't quote me on this but it's either God, or Christianity ... But yeah... i got distracted be back later lmao

City and Colour – The Way It Used To Be Lyrics 11 years ago
Probably the most truthful song I've heard about regret, and how it never worked out.... Not mentioning why it went wrong in the song makes it worse cause now we can put ourselves into the song and see how wicked we are ourselves and imagine ourselves i think i have 12 more years left till i regret everything i did when i left to the marines ...... how i stupid i was to let her go.... It hurts deep seeing out much this song hits me everytime i hear it... i just wanna scream it out with ailment i have in my hand... but then again Most people drink their troubles away... and maybe mines too should be the bottle...
