104 Wellington Street North Video (MV)

There was a red brick house where a child died
Mere steps away from the For Sale sign
They said in two more years it'll fetch a Locke Street price
That's three cities now I've watched decay
Three cities now, the same disease
Where can I go where I won't do the same?
Can we sister up these joists
Instead of ripping up the floors
Greed ushers in decay
The decadence is harrowing
Can we sister up these joists
Instead of ripping up the floors
They swear they'll find a way
To get us out of here for free
It's such an easy fight but we're beyond exhausted
Rob will fill that church with harmony
But the city isn't listening
They're drowning out the angel's whispering
But the good news is he don't fold like me
He takes the cities dirt and he starts sowing
He cultivates while they're over-harvesting
Can we sister up these joists
Instead of ripping up the floors
Greed ushers in decay
The decadence is harrowing
Can we sister up these joists
Instead of ripping up the floors
They swear they'll find a way
To get these rents to market rate
Can we sister up these joists
Instead of choking out the pulse
A city can't support the weight
If the beams won't stop rotting
I swear we'll sister up the joists
Two sets of hands, hell, maybe more
The foundation starts to sink
And there's no one left who knows just what it needs
