Metric

Twilight Galaxy

By Metric Did they tell you, you should grow up When you wanted to dream? Did they warn you, better shape up If you want to succeed? I don't know about you, who are they talking to? They aren't talking to me.

I'm higher than high, lower than deep. I'm doing it wrong, singing along.

Did I ask you for attention When affection is what I need? Thinking sorrow is perfection I'd wallow 'til you told me There's no glitter in the gutter There's no twilight galaxy.

Go higher than high Lower than deep Keep doing it wrong Singing along

I'm higher than high Lower than deep Doing it wrong And singing along

I'm alright, c'mon baby, I've seen all the demons that you've got. If you're not alright, now c'mon baby, I'll pick you up and take you where you want.

Anywhere you want Anywhere you want Anywhere you want Anything you want

I'm higher than high Lower than deep Doing it wrong And singing along

Higher than high Lower than deep Doing it wrong Singing along

Live It Out / Gimme Sympathy

By Metric On the day we were supposed to leave You changed your mind at the station You had a nice apartment There was a good bar downstairs Your old friend worked there

I'll go anyway, I'll go anyway They won't refund the ticket It's a good story

But I don't want to live it alone Crash to take a chance I wanna live it out I know I'm already dead No concrete adversity Only traps of our own actions How we wanted it to be Now I'm never gonna see you again You turned off

Vertabrae by vertebrae Roll your way out of a coma Look up, the nurse is smiling What luck, the nurse is me Your old body is dead Your body's dead, you're a word instead In my sleep I repeat it It's a good story

But I don't want to live it alone Crash to take a chance We were gonna live it out Look at you, you're already dead How will you remember me Digging ditches out of boredom Said you could never leave Now you're never gonna be here again You checked out

Hope, I'll live it out

Get hot Get too close to the flame Wild open space Talk like an open book Sign me up Got no time to take a picture I'll remember someday All the chances we took

We're so close to something better left unknown We're so close to something better left unknown

I can feel it in my bones Gimme sympathy After all this is gone Who would you rather be The Beatles or The Rolling Stones? Oh seriously You're gonna make mistakes, you're young Come on baby play me something, Like: Here Comes the Sun

Don't go Stay with the all unknown Stay away from the hooks All the chances we took

We're so close to something better left unknown We're so close to something better left unknown

I can feel it in my bones Gimme sympathy After all this is gone Who would you rather be The Beatles or The Rolling Stones? Oh seriously You're gonna make mistakes, you're young Come on baby play me something, Like: Here Comes the Sun
