Metropolis Songtext

von Wintersleep

A full-grown man,
Man casually dressed
Caught a thought in a plan
In a busy metropolis
Hold tarot cards held to tightly to his chest

As if to protect
As if his life depended on
His way to work
Some other more adventurous

Some other place
Some other place that I forget
As if the world has ever stopped to noticed
Something so pure
So comical, so tragic

These two little girls
Girls in rhythm more or less
Caught up in a twirl
And the miscellaneous
But love doesn't call
Or have to be invited
Or climb through walls as if never existed

The man that you are
The man you were
The man you left
Turn into stars flowing, through the wilderness
Burning hard, a memory you can't forget
Wherever you are, why'd you ever reveal it

I know who you are
I know the secretes you protect
Alone in your car, the violence you imagine
It hurts so hard, a memory you can't forget
Wherever you are, why you ever concede it
As if was regards every care and if it did
But nothing un-pure is ever complicated
But nothing is ever done, is ever done it's said by chance
But nothing I'm sure has ever resonated
But flow through the walls

Flow through the walls
Flow through the walls
Flow through the walls
As if it knows who you are
It's changing shape in the dark
If it can tell you apart
It's going to take you, take you
As if it knows who you are
Its changing shape in the dark
If it can tell you apart
It's going to break you, break you
As if it knows who you are
It's changing shape in the dark
If it can tell you apart
It's going to take you, take you
As if it knows who you are
Changing your shape in the dark, your secrete
I drifted with you
I know you
I know you
