Migrations from the album Paper Anniversary (2005) released on Six Shooter Records.

Lyrics:

Scarecrow in a pale dress

Face pressed on this greasy gas station window

White River, Ontario

Sidelong looks at boys

Lined up like beer cans on a fence

Pissing away this blurry afternoon

And under her breath she says

"Would you pick me up?

I'm light as a feather

Though I'm not afraid

I am not brave enough to offer"

He was beautiful and mean

Could never put things right

At seven stole a bottle and chose his antidote

Faked his own death at fourteen

Left his clothes and a note by the riverbed

And floated away

"Won't you pick me up?

I'm light as a feather

Though I'm not afraid

I am not brave enough to offer"

Station wagon full

Family of six rattling home

The long way down the Trans-Canada

Black bird on a hydrowire

Plummets as they pass

Who turns to watch as it lands in the muddy field

"Won't you pick me up?

I'm light as a feather

Though I'm not afraid

I am not brave enough to offer

Pick me up

I'm light as a feather

I am not afraid"
