Artist: Metric Album: Synthetica (2012) Title: Speed The Collapse
Lyrics Speed The CollapseAll the way from where we came Built a mansion in a day Distant lightning, thunderclaps Watched our neighbour's house collapse Looked the other way
And then the storm was overhead All the oceans boiled and rivers bled We auctioned off our memories In the absence of a breeze Scatter what remains Scatter what remains
Pushed away, I'm pulled toward A comedown of revolving doors Every warning we ignored Drifting in from distant shores The wind presents a change of course A second reckoning of sorts We were wasted waiting for A comedown of revolving doors
Ah, ah, ah (Faith don't fail me now) Ah, ah, ah
And when the days that followed passed In another mansion built to last From our window we could see Only possibilities Down the road and back
But then the storm returned for more In a comedown of revolving doors Auction off our memories In the absence of a breeze Scatter what remains Scatter what remains
Pushed away, I'm pulled toward A come down of revolving doors Every warning we ignored Drifting in from distant shores The wind presents a change of course Second reckoning of sorts We were wasted waiting for A comedown of revolving doors
Ah, ah, ah (Faith don't fail me now) Ah, ah, ah
Faith don't fail me now (Ah, ah, ah) Faith don't fail me now (Ah, ah, ah) Faith don't fail me now |
