Sick Muse by Metric April 11, 2011

Watch out Cupid
Stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life

You better watch out Cupid
Stuck me with a sickness
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life
The one I’d better lead
All the blondes are fantasies

And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, “Look at me”. And looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I’ll write you harmony in C

Everybody,everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody,everybody just wanna play the lead

Watch out Cupid
Money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out
And let me live my life

She said, “I’m with stupid”
Money is a sick muse
Pull your little arrows out
Let me live my life
The one I’d better lead
All the blondes are fantasies

And we looked at them eleven ways
You said, “Look at me”. And looked away
And you wrote the song I wanna play
I’ll write you harmony in C

Everybody,everybody just wanna fall in love
Everybody,everybody just wanna play the lead

Help, I’m Alive by Metric March 18, 2011

I tremble, they’re gonna eat me alive
If I stumble they’re gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If you’re still alive my regrets are few
If my life is mine what shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going, I get whatever I need
While my blood’s still flowing and my heart’s still
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft, tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

If you’re still alive my regrets are few
If my life is mine what shouldn’t I do?
I get wherever I’m going, I get whatever I need

While my blood’s still flowing and my heart’s still beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

I tremble, they’re gonna eat me alive
If I stumble they’re gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer, beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

Help, I’m alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
