Lied van de week: week 38 - 2018

Now or never now - Metric

Ah, hoe zalig klinkt Now or never now toch van Metric. Al vanaf de eerste noten heb ik zin om te gaan dansen en dan moet de prachtstem van zangeres Emily Haines me nog betoveren.

Je vindt deze song ook op het album Art of doubt dat je hier kan kopen.

Lyrics:

It hurts to turn the radio on
Stamina's gone
My spirit is weak
Because every time I start to move on
Keep hearing that song
I'm brought to my knees
To permanently see in reverse
Take the remorse out of defeat
Because everything that's under my skin
Where I end and begin
Still belongs to me

I'm fine to sit and stare at the door
Can't run anymore
Too weary to stand
I'm bound in the effect with the cause
My life is on pause
It's out of my hands
To perfectly perform in reverse
There's no way to rehearse
There's nothing to plan
Because everything that's under my skin
Where I end and begin
That's who I am

Oh, only silence can restore
The sense of place I had before
Oh, only silence can repair
My sense of self I lost somewhere
Oh oh, oh, only silence can restore
The sense of place I had before
Oh, only silence can repair
My sense of self I lost somewhere

Because the last time I let myself feel this way
It was a long, long time ago
And now we get so scared, and we get so scared
To be nowhere left alone
Because the last time you let yourself feel this way
It was a long, long time ago
And now we get so scared, and we get so scared
To be nowhere left alone

Because it's now or never now
It's now or never now, now, now
Because it's now or never now
It's now or never now, now, now
Because it's now or never now
It's now or never now, now, now
Because it's now or never now
It's now or never now, now, now, now, now, now, now
