Speed the Collapse - Metric

All the way from where we came

Built a mansion in a day

Distant lightning, thunder claps

Watched our neighbor’s house collapse

Looked the other way

And then the storm was overhead

All the oceans boiled and rivers bled

We auctioned off our memories

In the absence of a breeze

Scatter what remains

Scatter what remains!

Pushed away, I’m pulled toward

A comedown of revolving doors

Every warning we ignored

Drifting in from distant shores

The wind presents a change of course

A second reckoning of sorts

We were wasted waiting for

A comedown of revolving doors

Fate don’t fail me now

And when the days that followed past

In another mansion built to last

From our window we could see

Only possibilities

Down the road and back

But, then the storm returned for more

In a comedown of revolving doors

Auctioned off our memories

In the absence of a breeze

Scatter what remains

Scatter what remains!

Pushed away, I’m pulled toward

A comedown of revolving doors

Every warning we ignored

Drifting in from distant shores

The wind presents a change of course

A second reckoning of sorts

We were wasted waiting for

A comedown of revolving doors

Fate don’t fail me now

Fate don’t fail me now

Fate don’t fail me now

Fate don’t fail me now
