Lyrics The Tragically Hip

The Tragically Hip

The Completists

You lured me with your diamond flower

You lured me with talk of still more talk

You lured me with caramelising power

You lured me a lot

Clearly lifeless bare feet

And dogs just trained to sniff

You saw him struggle

Then you saw him cease his struggling

You said, we're half way, come and meet us

We're the completists

You lured me with your bad intentions

You lured me with your Mexican pot

You lured me with desert dimensions

You lured me a lot

You loaded up your gear so well

You can pack so tight

But I can still hear your tambourine

Demeaning you through the night

I don't want to sound defeatist

But we're the completest

Intimate, inaccurate, a family in a way

Intimate, inaccurate, a family in a way

Made the trip to vulnerable and back on the same day

I don't want to sound defeated

You lured me into repetition

You lured me to want to go to sleep

You lured me into open spaces

You lure me

Clearly lifeless bare feet

And dogs just trained to sniff

You showed him struggle

Then you showed him cease his struggling

You said, we're half way, come and meet us

We're the completists

We're half way, come and meet us

The completest
