Metropole by The Lawrence Arms Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Brush off the hours of your day
I'm buried in the distant dusk
Winding past uncertain roads history's remapped
I'm not together I'm apart (x2)

[Hook]
The wilderness of these streets
The neon trees shine their lights down on me
Years on repeat (x2)

[Verse 2]
Mother I don't even care, I thought I tried
I'm so sorry I never call and I never write
The traffic lights blinked a million times
But I blinked twice and twenty years went by
Twenty years went by

[Hook]

[Outro]
We're stuck somewhere in between
The sounds of the orchestra rise
And swell all around me
This is the end of all things, this is the end (x3)
This is the end of all things
