Chris Garneau – Relief Lyrics 16 years ago
Clearly you misunderstood, I didn't word it very well. I meant he was writing this song about a person, I chose a girl, I don't know why. I guess it would be more fitting to choose a male.
And I don't see why it can't be about drugs. Or even just a problem in general. You're right, I do have my opinions, and I see no reason why you have to disregard mine just because you find a different meaning in the song.

Chris Garneau – Baby's Romance Lyrics 16 years ago
It's
"the ladys' got no clue she's at the shop"
and,
"the baby sleeps against graveyard flower pots, the baby's sleeping up against you, i'd think he'd prefer an old motel cot"

Chris Garneau – First Place!! Lyrics 16 years ago
I don't know if you got those lyrics from a different version, but here are the lyrics from the one on the album:

You have killed them
And you don't know why
Your lips they move
But they only lie
Your house is white
Its got nice things inside
When you are through
you better run and ahide

You know, you know, you know
You know, you know, you know

This brigade of
Girls and boys
We will ride of you
And of your dangerous toys
Like father like
Son and so
On and so forth

You know, you know, you know
You know, you know, you know

But we will win first place
And we'll never tell you how
But you shoulda known by now

You have killed them
And you don't know why

Keep it down
It's no big news
You know, you know
You know, you know

Chris Garneau – Relief Lyrics 16 years ago
For some reason I think this song is about a drug problem, or a problem in general she had.
Like, her "good old friend" is her addiction to drugs, and by seeing the sea come in, it was like her relapse.
By not asking, he's worn himself out asking her to stop, and he couldn't possibly ask again.

Then by saying he likes the way she dances, he loves the way she is in her purest form, drug free, problem free. He loves her the way she is, and he's trying to convince himself that they will work it out, and that the problem will pass by.

The next part, hearing her word. Maybe she's said she'd stop, and he keeps remembering these words she spoke. Sinning in red could be wrath. Red referring to anger. He's angry that she broke her word.

Metric – White Gold Lyrics 16 years ago
Well, white gold IS another term for cocaine. And if you read over the lyrics, it does make quite a bit of sense.
