The Don

Raine Maida - Montreal

Mother can you see me?
'cause I'm trying to find myself
These childrens we set fires
But these fires they burned out
Burned out
Burnet out
City keeps on changing
Now this house is not a home
All lies keep rearranging
There's a chill inside my bones
My bones
My bones

Feels like the cold winds of Montreal
The cold winds of Montreal
This winter can take it all
But it can't take our lives

Brother are you out there?
Are you headed to the sun?
They've tied your wings so tightly
But they always come undone
Undone
Undone

Feels like the cold winds of Montreal
The cold winds of Montreal
This winter can take it all
But it can't take our lives

Mother can you see me?
'cause i'm trying to find myself
These childeren we set fires
But these fires they burned out
Burned out
Burned out

Feels like the cold winds of Montreal
The cold winds of Montreal
This winter can take it all
But it can't take our lives

"[Art] is inherently nonviolent and it actually occupies your mind with creation rather than destruction."
Anthony Kiedis


"There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life."
John Lennon


"A lot of people are troubled by civil disobedience. As soon as you talk about committing civil disobedience they get a little upset. But that’s exactly the purpose of civil disobedience, to upset people, to trouble them, to disturb them. We who commit civil disobedience are disturbed to and we need to disturb those who are in charge..."
Howard Zinn
