All by Design Lyrics


We were on our way home
On the right bus
I just want to ask the driver
If it's not too much fuss
To drop me off at the old lady's
And pick me up tomorrow
If you could, If you couldIt's all by design
To keep me from losing my mindWe were on our way there
It's just around the corner
I caught a funny stare and I started a fight with the ownerWell it's the whole nine yards
And I fold all my cards in your face
And I love what is real
And I loved you my dear
Before you were replaced
You were replacedAnd it's all by design
To keep me from losing my mindI saw you over there
Act like I don't care
'Cause I've never seen something that made me stareSo we run through your backyards

And throw all my best cards in your face
In your face
Because I love what is real
And I loved you my dear before I was replaced
I was replacedAnd it's all by design
To keep me from losing my mind
It's all by design to keep us from losing our mindsWe were on our way home
On the right bus
I just want to tell the driver
Don't bother 'cause it's a bust

Big Wreck was a neo-progressive hard rock band of the late 1990s.

The band was formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1995 by vocalist Ian Thornley, guitarist Brian Doherty, bassist Dave Henning and drummer Forrest Williams, who met as students at the Berklee College of Music. After several years of gigging in Boston and Cambridge, the band signed to a major label and released its debut album In Loving Memory Of... in 1997. The single The Oaf was a major Top Ten hit for the band that year.

Due to Thornley's Canadian nationality, the band's biggest commercial success was actually in Canada rather than the United States. The album's subsequent singles, Blown Wide Open and That Song, were not as successful on the American charts as The Oaf had been, but in Canada they were both Top Ten hits.

In October of 2001, Big Wreck played a special show at Toronto's Roy Thompson Hall accompanied by the Toronto Symphony Orchestra and the Uzume Taiko Ensemble of drummers, with The Tragically Hip's Paul Langlois and Robby Baker also making appearances.

The band's second album The Pleasure and the Greed (released in 2001) was marred by poor marketing and was not as big a hit as their debut album, especially in the United States. The band subsequently broke up a year later in 2002.

Thornley moved back to Toronto, launching the band Thornley. Doherty has gone on to be in the indie band Death of 8, but the other band members never emerged with new projects.

Ian and Brian rekindled their friendship, which lead to a reunion in 2011

New album titled "Albatross" released on iTunes on March 6, 2012

Subsequent 2012 Canadian tour announced.
