Just The Sea 03:02
I guess I'll be alone just the sea and me That's alright I'll be alone just the sea and me. This sickness that's come over me it turns my insides inside out But I'm accustom to the waves the rum excess the salty sprays (Too much rum is never the problem) This nausea's from another source, inner ache a strong remorse Your words are biting like a shark teeth are bared eyes are dark (Cut me, crush me, but never quite kill me) Walk me down the plank Cast off severed and sank So I guess I'll be alone just the sea and me That's alright I'll be alone just the sea and me. We'd sit out underneath the stars moonshine moonlight always ours A compass kept us on our way a guiding light to far away (Treasured life is what we searched for) The tides have turned and you've left me this dead mans chest is so heavy The ship we built goes up in flames Davy Jones calls out my name (He is waiting at the bottom) Walk me down the plank Cast off severed and sank (Chorus) So I guess I'll be alone just the sea and me That's alright I'll be alone just the sea and me. So I guess I'll be alone just the sea and me That's alright I'll be alone just the sea and me. So I guess I'll be alone just the sea and me That's alright I'll be alone just the sea and me.

Dandy Lion 03:57
There is a vase Of Tiger Lilies watching you they're trapped in a gaze On the window sill they're sitting. Wishing that they Had the guts to spread their seeds and float on a way But they're stuck in they're glassy prison. They call you the gold coin of the garden. Guardian of wild grassy dens. Your yellow mane Shines like the sun what can be done to tame you? You're independent, transient. You slip through my hands Like sand or water through the cracks I'm left here all alone You're free to run you're free to roam. You float on the wind Off on your next great adventure sailing on Your mind is sharp your back is strong. You find a new lair Set up a home all of your own and blossom new life. Seems to them you've got it right 'cause They call you the gold coin of the garden. Guardian of wild grassy dens. You're the one that we've all got our eye on. 'Cause you're one lovely fine and dandy lion. Where are you going, where are you going now? Where are you going, where are you? They call you the gold coin of the garden. Guardian of wild grassy dens. You're the one that we've all got our eye on. 'Cause you're one lovely fine and dandy lion.

That water's looking awful calm and I can't smell any storm The hurricane has blown away and darkness became dawn And I don't mean to misinform you I know you like it mild But now I want to fuck it all up and do something wild. 'Cause I can't sit still and I need a thrill right now Complacencies my worst enemy And I can't relax when I'm on my back Throw a stick in the spokes and this jars to a halt. I thought you looked so good on paper but you're plain as the page Nice enough doesn't quite cut it your kindness is a cage And I don't mean to misinform you I know you play it safe But now I want to fuck it all up be free and misbehave. 'Cause I can't sit still and I need a thrill right now Complacencies my worst enemy And I can't relax when I'm on my back Throw a stick in the spokes and this jars to a halt. A stale smell fills up the air the colours all are beige Something new has long retired but something blue has stayed.

Frankie 03:25
Look at all this mess you've made your instability has caused this Hot and cold starts to erode this stable ground and dusty road Look at all this mess you've made your instability has caused this Stones and eggshells start to crack you lurch ahead not looking back Look at all this mess you've made your insecurity has caused this Left me lying in your dust as you rush on to self destruct Look at all this mess you've made your insecurity has caused this Blanketing this good old town with you like this we all go down. There you go again, There you go again. Frankie you're leaving me What am I supposed to do without you, what am I supposed to do without Frankie you're leaving me, What am I supposed to do without you, what am I supposed to do without you. Look at all this mess you've made you've buried all your secrets in a treasure box filled up with gold without a map, no key, no code Look at all this mess you've made you've buried all my secrets so you wouldn't have to deal with them a rocky prison they're condemned Look at all this mess you've made you've buried all of us so that you wouldn't have to compromise killing all who you despise Look at all this mess you've made you've buried all of us so that you could declare that you have won but look at all this damage done. There you go again, There you go a, There you go a, There you go again. Frankie you're leaving me What am I supposed to do without you, what am I supposed to do without Frankie you're leaving me, What am I supposed to do without you, what am I supposed to do without you.

Monster 03:40
This surgery you're doing you're picking me apart You slice me to the soul and squeeze my beating heart I don't know what you're seeing but you seem to see right through me I don't know what you're thinking but that's no surprise. Now your gloves are on so all the bets are off The anaesthetic sets in but I'm already numb Doctor, doctor save me I don't want to die But I thought you might be fatal so it's no surprise. That you made me a gun shell hard and hollow you made me choke when I swallow you made me a monster. The operation's over you say it's a success My brain and heart are missing from my head and my chest I'll be safer this way with nothing left to break though I'm not sure if I'm happy but that's no surprise you made me lose the light from my eyes you made me hide behind this disguise you made me a monster you made me talk until I'm screaming you made me scratch until I'm bleeding you made me bend until I'm breaking you made me rage until I'm shaking you made me.

Shadow 03:51
The darkness that lives inside your heart Get to know the cruelest parts and tame them the wild and the wolf The sickness that lives inside your head get to know the things you dread and tame them the wild and the wolf The weight that weighs upon your chest get to know why you obsess and tie it to a red balloon The burden that ways upon your back get to know the white and black and tie it to a red balloon Walk with the darker side! Walk with the darker side! I'm taking note of what I lack and there's no time to look back now hands unclench I'm letting go With just the moon for company her light my silhouette and me I'm walking with my shadow. The secret you try to hide away it doesn't keep the beast at bay embrace it your darkness and your light The shame that persistently replays be the hunter not the prey embrace it your shadow and your light Shadow light collide! Walk with the darker side! I'm learning to see what's really real what is fake and what I feel hands unclench I'm letting go With just the moon for company her light my silhouette and me I'm walking with my shadow. I know now the beast that lives inside who's stronger than a lions pride hands unclench I'm letting go With just the moon for company her light my silhouette and me I'm walking with my shadow.

about

Two Bears North Edmonton, Alberta

“Tight, punchy, pop-rock replete with melodic hooks, intricate rhythms and some inexplicable/intangible quality that makes it all so utterly charming.” (Rokline Magazine)

Two Bears North fearlessly expresses the relentless battle between darkness and light. The trio is fronted by Sophie Heppell and Melissa Walker who embody this contrast—a musical collision of yin and yang.
