Matthew Good - Euphony

Demo: Euphony, 1994

Also appeared on the 1994 Seeds Winners compilation released by Vancouver radio station CFOX.

Do you ever feel like you're living in a beat poet's nightmare
Like french kissing your despair
Suffocating in the open air?
If I was on the road Jack, when I got home
I would burn that car to the ground
Straight to the ground now
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah now

If I was a sailor
And I walked upon your water
Would you know my burning tower
Would you save me with your locks of gold?
I wait for you in ruin
Captured at the window
Fading like a photograph
Fading like a nervous laugh
And I would love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view
I'd love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view

Do you ever feel like you're living in a time without a reason
A year without a season
Another day cut by the killing joke?
If I was on the outside
Looking at the inside
I would burn this place to the ground
Straight to the ground now
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah now

If I was a lonely man
And I walked upon your growing land
Would you hear my calling hunger
Would you keep me from going under?
I wait for you beside myself
Captured at the window
Fading like a photograph
Crooked like a last laugh
And I would love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view
I'd love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view

Happy to be alive
So low it hurts to breathe in
Close to you, it's close to me
Close enough that it's something to believe in

Do you remember to turn out the lights
When the show is over
The show is over, and it gets easier
And after this, and after this
And after this
I would love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view
I'd love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view
I'd love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view
I'd love a room
I'd love a room
I'd love a room with a view
If it's easier
If it's easier

i guess Metric owes it to MG. only 15 years earlier did MG write this riff.

[toolboxnj]

nice, history teacher and some old demos on you tube... downloaded all these about 10 years ago from some ftp site and it's good to rediscover now that he's called it quits

@lodkraut Good thing about You Tube. Finding artists that you know about and like. Discovering work of theirs that you never heard of before. Really cool to snoop around here.

@badcharmable fuck metric! that's not music or art....it's imitation!!!

[jimjimfrancis22]

very basic beats with this guy but good lyrics

[explodingpuppy]

They played this at Arts County Fair in '98. It was beautiful, i miss this era.
