lyrics

Oh poor Vancouver- He didn’t know what he didn’t know.
Turns out his maps they were all wrong, he got lost in the valley below.
He was deceived by the tide, as he tried to abide
the course his maps said that the river would be
Had the Salish been asked they would have said with a laugh:
“Son, you know you’re lost as sea”.

Be careful where you’re going.
Always make sure to know when you can believe
You’ve been deceived by what you’re
seeing through the looking glass.
Just a simple delusion.
Then the tide of confusion brings you
down and around below the bridge above Deception Pass.
Lord, save me on Deception Pass.

You should have known me when I was young, I was a legend to myself.
Thought I could make it through this lonely world, and never have to trust in anyone else.
But I could never understand about the matter at hand
And what it had to do with me.
I was just going with the flow because I didn’t want to know
I made a mockery out of living free.

All of my worst decisions, I always kept them to myself.
‘Cause they can never talk you out of things, you never share with anyone else.
I was seduced by the tide, I had nowhere else to hide
And nobody but me I could blame.
I got the doctors to prescribe, to fill the hole deep inside
Until I couldn’t even tell you my name.
