City And Colour - Northern Blues Lyrics






I've got too much in front of me
And not enough left behind
I've got too much in front of me
I didn't leave enough behind

I can hear the devil whisper
Payin' no heed to what he says
I can hear the devil whisper
Staking no weight to his claim

And I'm all torn down
With these northern blues
Got my soul in want of
Some post-mortem truth
I keep rollin' on howling at the moon
But I'm all torn down
With these northern blues

I have no understanding
For standing outside of time
Three hundred thousand hours
Still I remain hungry for the light

The world is disappearing
Little by little
Day by day
Three hundred thousand hours
Still the weather it has not changed

And I'm all torn down
With these northern blues
Got my soul in want
Of some post-mortem truth
I keep rollin' on howling at the moon
But I'm all torn down
With these northern blues

I'm all torn down
With these northern blues
I'm all torn down

I keep rollin' on howling at the moon
But I'm all torn down
With these northern blues

Northern blues

    A Blues song…interpreted by City and Colour. How can this be anything but good? I love how Dallas Green alternates between his chest voice and falsetto voice. #punkflop #trackdrops #cityandcolour #dallasgreen http://trackdrops.com/2016/02/16/city-and-colour-northern-blues/

    Beautiful and haunting. The songs take me to a place I've never felt before. This is one of the best albums I've ever heard. I get lost in it's songs taking me there.

  21. R.... M....

    this is a really good tune good groove.

  22. S.... X....

    Just keep the tracks on repeat and they grow on you.

  23. R.... K....

    This band never fails to impress me, they get better and better. There is not one song they have made that I hate. This is my fav so far from the new album :)

    R.... K....

    I agree, my daughter turned me on to this band, I raised her well she has great taste in music.

    R.... K....

    +Rebecca Kostka absolutely love Green's work, but "In The Water I Am Beautiful" is def. hardest to listen to, for me. Just the weirdest combination of tones. So weird.

    R.... K....

    Every album is better and see them live last night in SF was amazing!!

  24. 3.... 1....

    He's got even better. There's a lotta Pink Floyd in it.

    3.... 1....

    +I Don't Mind Listen to Gilmours first album. sorta like this.

    3.... 1....

    I have his four studio albums. I'm a long time fan hahah =]

  25. R.... G....

    reminds me of my morning jacket

  26. B.... W....

    Wow this album just keeps gettin more and more amazing. Beautiful guitar and vocal work as always Dallas.

  27. A.... ....

    Pretty Yummy Track, nice guitar work on this album.

  28. N.... ....

    Pink Floyd inspired, and boy is it working!!!

  29. F.... M....

    This album = perfection

  30. B.... ....

    heaviest city and colour record by far

    B.... ....

    I love city and colour but i fail to see how this is even remotely heavy.

    B.... ....

    Jordan Morris well it is the heaviest lol. Doesn't mean it's heavy whatsoever
