about

Everything they told me I could never achieve, because it was too hard, or too difficult... They tell you to be everything that you want to be, but then they make it nearly impossible for anyone to get their toes in, let alone the foot!! I just want to be me and that, to me, means being a successful musician. Now if only society's measure of success could be something other than the mighty dollar $ign...

lyrics

BE ALL WE CAN’T BE

Born with a plastic spoon
Adults are much too busy
Father loves a PC more than me

Who wants to be a victim?
We give but are not given
We take but are not taken seriously

By some weird twist of fate
Youth is wasted on the young

Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
What if I can’t be me?
Left all alone to figure out how to
Be all we can’t be

A woman’s liberation
A man who was always free it seems
A land of liberty, but no one ever told me
Are we supposed raise our parents?
It’s not me who said that we should
Reach for the stars, follow our dreams and

Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
What if I can’t be me?
Left all alone to figure out

Solo

By some weird twist of fate
Youth is wasted on the young

Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
What if I can’t be me?
Left all alone to figure out how to
Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
Be all we can’t be (Be all we can’t be)
What if I can’t be me?
Left all alone to figure out how to
Be all we can’t be
(Ontario!)
