Metropolis Songtext
von Parallels

(Metropolis)

All my life, I knew inside
My one true love is the city
I stayed so long that my roots had grown
Into the cracks of the concrete

I used to stay up all night worshipping the skyline
Making love to strangers to pass the time
Feeling that the best, the best was yet to come
Mistakes were always made but here they didn′t count

(Metropolis)
The only home
(Metropolis)
That I wanted to know
(Metropolis)
All lonely hearts belong
(Metropolis)
We'll come together


For every hour of every day
It lets me feel something
Crowded with life, it keeps me alive
It′s how loneliness understands me

Oh, I learned happiness here and how to be alone
And how to take it in before the moment goes
Written in space, written in the lines
The lines on my face and story of my life

(Metropolis)
The only home
(Metropolis)
That I wanted to know
(Metropolis)
All lonely hearts belong
(Metropolis)
We'll come together


I wanted answers to know if it's worth the fight
I wanted permanence but nothing is in this life
And all my courage couldn′t make all seem clear
If dreams are strangers, maybe I′ll find one here
(Metropolis)
Yeah
(Metropolis)
My only hope

City lights, city lights
Keeps me alive

(Metropolis)
The only home (the only home)
(Metropolis)
Yeah, that I wanted to know
(Metropolis)
Ooh, all lonely, lonely, lonely hearts, lonely hearts
(Metropolis)
Come together
(Metropolis)
