Weyburn from Weyburn by Jason Pilling

Good morning, here's your ticket, to another busy day
You can watch it, with your eyes closed, it’s just another re-make

My plans are too big for this provincial town
Which makes it the perfect place for hiding out

I will be breaking eggs behind closed doors
And I will be faking the permission forms

Paper burns too easy
The inspiration’s already ash
and I’m still cold
To crush a diamond from a mystery
The fires need tending
the finest fuels, nothing trending

Stay close to the exit
beat the traffic out
Explaining you predicted
(you) always had your doubts
keeping your whites clean
let the pitch go by
papers tomorrow are printing your surprise

Showing your work for partial credit now
I doubt you will get it that’s living with your vows

Paper burns too easy...
