For all those lost on 9/11.
lyrics
It’s not quite what you’d expected
And there was nothing wrong with you
We’d grown up so protective
Of the things we feel we have right to
Like takin’ off in an aeroplane
The sweet goodbye and I’ll see you again
With your friends in beside ya
Not the screamin’ and the cryin’
No, not like this
It’s not what you’d expected
Your work did not amount to this
The plane flew in and wrecked it
Your chance at love or at least one last kiss
I hear the whispers in the yard
On the road coming from afar
In the laughter, in a dream
I know that we didn’t ever think
We’d be left like this
No not like this
And there was nothing wrong with you
We’d grown up so protective
Of the things we feel we have right to
Like takin’ off in an aeroplane
The sweet goodbye and I’ll see you again
With your friends in beside ya
Not the screamin’ and the cryin’
No, not like this
It’s not what you’d expected
Your work did not amount to this
The plane flew in and wrecked it
Your chance at love or at least one last kiss
I hear the whispers in the yard
On the road coming from afar
In the laughter, in a dream
I know that we didn’t ever think
We’d be left like this
No not like this

about
Brian Taguchi Kingston, Ontario
Brian Taguchi lives in Kingston, on the other side of the university from the hospital where he was born. Growing up, many
hours were spent in the basement learning, playing, writing, recording and mixing music...This where the action still happens - when the candle is lit.
Introspective and narrative, Brian hangs out in the gray zone between advocating and mourning, ambition and uncertainty..
