The band was started by Ian Thornley when he returned to Toronto after the breakup of his earlier band, Big Wreck. With the help of Chad Kroeger of Nickelback, Thornley signed on to Kroeger's 604 Records. The other band members of Thornley are Tavis Stanley on guitar, Ken Tizzard (formerly of The Watchmen) on bass, and Sekou Lumumba (formerly of Edwin & The Pressure, which was Edwin from I Mother Earth's band after leaving IME) on drums. After 1½ years of touring Thornley made some changes. After Ken and Sekou both left Thornley, the band added from "Big Sugar," Eric Paul on drums and Cale Gontier on bass, from the "Three Days Grace" camp.

The Going Rate (My Fix) Lyrics

Thornley

What's the going rate on life versus love
What's the going rate on heaven up above
I feed on the plans that I've made up til now
What's the going rate on accountability
What's the going rate on you versus me
I'm far from the walls and the trust that keep me here
But I'm stuck in the mud
It's stuck in my mind
How we're running out of time
Bent out of shape but I'm on the up and up
Pulled out my roots, yes I have
Wasted so much on everything but this
It's my fix, it's my fix, it's my fix
What's the going rate on making this thing right
What's the going rate on staying out all night
It's hard to believe in the things I trust the most
There's so many signs
How many ways
Can I deceive my yesterday
Bent out of shape but I'm on the up and up
Pulled out my roots, yes I have
Wasted so much on everything but this
It's my fix, it's my fix, it's my fix
Can you be bigger than this
Can you be stronger than this
We're counting on you
Everything's waiting on you
Everything's focused on you
To do what you should do
Bent out of shape but I'm on the up and up
Pulled out my roots, yes I have
Wasted so much on everything but this
It's my fix, it's my fix, it's my fix
Bent out of shape but I'm on the up and up
Pulled out my roots, yes I have
Wasted so much on everything but this
It's my fix, it's my fix, it's my fix
