Walk On (Comeau)
Meeting in the building
Five o'clock, don't be late
This thing we've got needs fixing
Not gonna last at this rate
Things were said that evening
When simple haste turns to hate
I think I hear the bells ring
Time for you to dissipate
Always felt so small with you
You always did look down on me
Always felt just a little uneasy
And I always thought you'd walk away
Now that you're gone...
Walk on
Walk on and don't look back
Don't look back
Walk on and don't look back
Walk on
Walk on and don't look back
Baby, don't look back
Walk on and don't look back
Tried to win you over
Played by your rules for awhile
Now look at you, don't cowar
Just keep on walking on down that line
Went on your "simple mission"
Sang with you all through the night
Kept a "happy disposition"
You just tried to prove you were right
Always felt so small with you
You always did look down on me
Always felt just a little uneasy
And I always thought you'd walk away
Now that you're gone...
Walk on
Walk on and don't look back
Don't look back
Walk on and don't look back
Walk on
Walk on and don't look back
Baby, don't look back
Walk on and don't look back
Never did say you were sorry
Never did apologize
Never did thank us
No, you never did acknowledge
Meeting in the building
Five o'clock, don't be late
This thing we've got needs fixing
Not gonna last at this rate
Always felt so small with you
You always did look down on me
Always felt just a little uneasy
And I always thought you'd walk away
Now that you're gone...
Walk on
Walk on and don't look back
Don't look back
Walk on and don't look back
Walk on
Walk on and don't look back
Baby, don't look back
Walk on and don't look back

Good for a Song (Comeau)
Who's to say where this will go
You know what they say about playing with fire
Who's to say if it's all a show
You're just fixing to get higher... higher
Who's to say how you spend your nights
You're home alone with your phone and your guitar
Who's to say when you shut the lights
You've gone too far, baby, you've gone too far
What have I got myself into?
All I know if I want more
What do I stand to lose?
Will I ever win?
Who's to say what will transpire
You're saying all the right words, making all the right moves, baby
Who's to say I've got the power
You're the one who holds the key... the key
What have I got myself into?
All I know if I want more
What do you stand to lose?
Will you ever win?
You'll be good for a song
You'll be good for a song
If I never see you again
You'll be good for a song
And here I am, here I am... singing it for you
What have I got myself into?
All I know if I want more
What do we stand to lose?
Will we ever win?
Where did I go wrong?

Rock, Paper, Scissors

Rock, Paper, Scissors (Comeau)
Three a.m., just paid my tab
The band has all gone home
From up on the stage, I saw you dancing
I saw you just let go
As I stand alone
On this empty city sidewalk
They're locking the door behind me
You... you're nowhere in sight
Rock, paper, scissors
Heads or tails
Drawing straws or a game of cards
I can never win
Rock, paper, scissors
Heads or tails
Drawing straws or a game of cards
I can never win... no
Been alone so long
I've forgotten what it's like
To lie in bed, besides the one
Who stole my heart away
When you come along
I just look away, act like I don't care
But it's in me, honey, kicking and screaming
Praying for you to come around
Rock, paper, scissors
Heads or tails
Drawing straws or a game of cards
I can never win
Rock, paper, scissors
Heads or tails
Drawing straws or a game of cards
I can never win... no
I'll always let you win
I'll always let you win
I will always let you win
I'll always let you... win

When to Walk Away

When to Walk Away (Comeau)
I see your smiling faces
When I walk through that door
I come from miles away
They say you can hear it in my voice
I've been known to have a temper
When some of you fools just disagree
Yeah, I've got a bone to pick
If you don't like it you can kiss my ass
I really wasn't planning on this
But this really pisses me off
Gonna put up my fists and show you no mercy
Gonna say things I should never have said
Then I'll realize just what I've done
Fall to my knees and beg for forgiveness
One day I'll learn...
When it's time to walk away
I think some of you are too sensitive
Take yourselves a little too seriously
I'll have you know I've paid my dues
Don't you dare tell me what's right and what's wrong
Gonna make something of myself
When my ship comes in
You... you're just a pawn in their game
You've been paying all your life and you will forever
I really wasn't planning on this
But this shit really pisses me off
Gonna put up my fists and show you no mercy
Gonna say things I should never have said
Then I'll realize just what I've done
Fall to my knees and beg for forgiveness
One day I'll learn...
When it's time to walk away
When it's time to walk away
Oh, when it's time to walk away
I've been known to have a temper
When some of you fools just disagree
Yeah, I've got a bone to pick
If you don't like it you can kiss my ass

The Time We Had (Music: Max Comeau/Lyrics: Yanik Comeau)
I will sing the pain, I put you through
I will sing the harm you knew I'd do
I'll sing all the work it'll take us to
Get over all the good times too
I will cry like rain, until I'm through
I'll smoke a bit, I'll drink a few
I'll think of all the things that I knew
I'd have a hard time giving you
Well I guess that's all the time we had
Endings are always kinda sad
But what we had, wasn't so bad
I'd even say, but don't get mad
It's probably the best time I ever had
The time we had
So why would I risk it all away
How could I lead my heart astray
How could I think it wouldn't matter
Don't I wish I had the answer... the answer
Well I guess that's all the time we had
Endings are always kinda sad
But what we had, wasn't so bad
I'd even say, but don't get mad
It's probably the best time I ever had
The time we had
You knew I'd try to do things right
We always talked into the night
I always tried to keep it in the light
Till it all want wrong, that fateful night
Well I guess that's all the time we had
You closed the door, it's kinda sad
But what we had, wasn't so bad
I'd even say, but don't get mad
It's probably the best time I ever had
The time we had
Well I guess that's all the time we had
Endings are always kinda sad
But what we had, wasn't so bad
I'd even say, but don't get mad
It's probably the best time I ever had
The time we had

Just One of the Boys (Music by: Félix Tellier-Pouliot / Lyrics by: Max Comeau)
Just one of the boys
I'm just like you, you're just like me
Just one of the boys
Something I try very hard to make you see
Just one of the boys
We share the same ambition, the very same dreams
Just one of the boys
But everything about me's not quite as it seems
Oh, I oughta know by now
Love's not a game for the weak of heart
Oh, and that's alright!
Just one of the boys
Living my life like a chameleon
Just one of the boys
You've seen me do it I turn it off, I turn it on
Just one of the boys
Walk a thin line between chaos and control
Just one of the boys
One minute I'm down, the next I'm on a roll
Oh, I oughta know by now
Love's not a game for the weak of heart
Oh, and that's alright!
Oh, I oughta know by now
Love's not a game for the weak of heart
Oh, and that's alright!
Oh, I really oughta know by now
But I won't stop 'til I get what I want
Yeah, yeah and that's alright
Just one of the boys
Tonight I chase the elusive dream
Just one of the boys
Watch me turn this heartbreak into gold
Just one of the boys
I think by now that everybody knows
Just one of the boys
Yeah...

Call Me Next Time (Comeau)
Call me next time
You finish work past midnight
Call me next time
You're closing the bar and you're drunk again
Call me next time
You find yourself thinking about me
Call me next time
You're feeling lonely as hell
Deep inside you like a secret nobody knows
Deep inside you like a secret you got no one to tell
Call me next time
You hear those demons crying
Call me next time
You need a good laugh or a good cry
Call me next time
You force a smile for that camera
Call me next time
The feeling's just not coming, no it's just not coming, oh oh!
Deep inside you like a secret nobody knows
Deep inside you like a secret you got no one to tell
Deep inside you like a secret nobody knows
Deep inside you like a secret you got no one to tell
When the cards finally fall
Will you still be standing tall
Tell me where will you be, honey
After the ball
Deep inside you like a secret nobody knows
Deep inside you like a secret you got no one to tell
Deep inside you like a secret nobody knows
Deep inside you like a secret you got no one to tell

Imaginary Lover (Comeau)
Imaginary lover
You got me seeing the light
Where all I'd ever known
Was darkness
Imaginary lover
Your kisses taste so sweet
You've got me weakening at the knees
Losing my composure
Morph as you wish
Into the one I've been dreaming of
Morph as you wish
You'll always be the very same to me
Imaginary lover
Started a fire in me
Now you can't, you won't, you don't
Know how to put it out
Morph as you wish
Into the one I've been dreaming of
Morph as you wish
You'll always be the very same to me
Imaginary lover
I held my breath as you walked by
Your eyes seem to say... you want me back
All I've ever known... is dakness

We Are Strangers (Comeau)
We are strangers
Neighbors for years but I don't know your name
We are strangers
Wish you'd let me in
Hey you,
You live upstairs from me
So strange,
Our paths never seem to cross
Hey you,
Some nights I hear you cry,
So hard,
Wish I could be of help to you
We are strangers
Neighbors for years but I don't know your name
We are strangers
Wish you'd let me in
Hey you,
Saw you this morning, so beautiful
So scared,
I could never work up the nerves, oh no
Yeah you,
You've got me writing love songs
So weak
I watched you walk away, never said a word
We are strangers
Neighbors for years but I don't know your name
We are strangers
Wish you'd let me in
Yeah...
We are strangers
Neighbors for years but I don't know your name
We are strangers
Wish you'd let me in

Suppose I Told You (Comeau)
Loving you, that's the easy part
Falling slowly, right from the start
I'm so afraid, to let you know
Yet I'm about as subtle as a circus show
Loving you, stirring me up inside
Wanna tell you just how I feel, then I run and hide
Oh, everybody knows what I'm talking about
I just wish you had me all figured out
Suppose I told you
I have fallen
Suppose I told you
I have fallen for you
Loving you, got a hold on me
Finally felt like I was where I was meant to be
It's been a long, cold, lonely winter
I just wish I could've stayed just a little while longer
Suppose I told you
I have fallen
Suppose I told you
I have fallen for you
Is it me? Is it you?
Is it just my imagination?
Did I see... see something in your eyes?
See something in your eyes...
Loving you, that's the easy part
Falling slowly, right from the start
I'm so afraid. to let it show
Yeah, but it's in these words, it's in this song
Don't you know?
Suppose I told you
I have fallen
Suppose I told you
I have fallen for you
