Metric - Speed The Collapse lyrics
rate meAll the way from where we came,
We built a mansion in a day,
Distant lightning, thunder claps,
Watched our neighbor's house collapse,
Looked the other way.
And then the storm was overhead,
All the oceans boil and river's bled.
We auctioned off our memories in the absence of a breeze
Scatter what remains, scatter what remains.
Pushed away and 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 come down of revolving doors.
(Feet don't fail me now)
And when the days that followed past,
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 come down of revolving doors.
Auction off our memories in the absence of a breeze.
Scatter what remains, scatter what remains.
Pushed away and 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 come down of revolving doors.
(Feet don't fail me now)
(Feet don't fail me now)
(Feet don't fail me now)
(Feet don't fail me now)
