Biografia:
A banda Weakerthans foi formada em 1997, em Winnipeg , Manitoba por John K. Samson , depois que ele deixou a banda de hardcore Propagandhi. John se juntou com o baixista John P. Sutton e o baterista Jason Tait , ambos de Winnipeg, e criaram o Weakerthans, com um som mais melódico e uma forma introspectiva de composição que seus projetos anteriores.
A história da origem do nome da banda, como citado no encarte de Fallow menciona, é uma quota do filme de 1992 "The Lover"( "Go ahead, I'm weaker than you can possibly imagine.

[Verse 1]
C Em F
Headlights race towards the corner of the dining room
C Em F
Half illuminate a face before they disappear
C Em F
You breathe in forty years of failing to describe a feeling
C Em F G
I breathe out smoke against the window, trace the letters in your name
[Refrain 1]
G F
Our letters sound the same, full of all our changing
G F C C/E C/F C C/E C/F
That isn't change at all, all straight lines circle sometime
[Verse 2]
C Em F
You said somewhere there's a box full of replacement parts to
C Em F
All the tenderness we've broken or let rust away
C Em F
Somewhere sympathy is more than just a way of leaving
C Em F G
Somewhere someone says I'm sorry, someone's making plans to stay
[Refrain 2]
G F
So tell me it's okay, tell me anything or
G F
Show me there's a pull unassailable
[Chorus 1]
C F
That will lead you there from the dark alone to benevolence that you've never known
Am G F
Or you knew when you were four and can't remember
C F
Where a small knife tears out those sloppy seams and the silence knows what your silence means
Am G F C C/E C/F C C/E C/F
And your metaphors as mixed as you can make them, are linked like days together
[Interlude]

[Refrain 3]
G F
I still hear trains at night, when the wind is right I
G F N.C.
Remember everything, lick and thread this string
[Chorus 2]
C F
That will never mend you or tailor more than a memory of a kitchen floor
Am G F
Or the fire door that we kept propping open
C F
And I love this place, the enormous sky and the faces, hands that I'm haunted by
Am G F C C/E C/F C C/E C/F
So why can't I forgive these buildings, these frameworks labeled home
