Lyrics 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 come down 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 come down of revolving doors

Fate, don't fail me now

And when the days that followed passed
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 come down of revolving doors
Auction off our memories
In the absence of a breeze

Scatter what remains
Scatter what remains

Pushed away, I'm pulled toward
A come down 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 come down 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
