Dressed to Suppress - Metric

And we keep speeding

And we keep speeding

And we keep crashing

And we keep crashing

And we keep reaching

And we keep reaching

And we keep crying

'Til we start laughing

Long before my fall from grace

For a piece of me, they appeared

From the throat, I'm tied to you

All of us, we're cracked in two

And the ones in the back cry "wait for me"

And the ones in the front cry "you're too slow, you're too slow"

And the ones who are weak cry "carry me"

And the ones who are strong cry "let me go, let me go"

We reach for the things we idolize

But the rings are just for show

Her beauty is a form of charity

Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow

Long before my fall from grace

For a piece of me, they appear

From the throat, I'm tied to you

All of us, we're cracked in two

And the ones we ignore cry "come to me"

(Come to me)

Are the ones we adore cry "give me space, give me space"

And the ones who are cruel cry "beg for me"

(Beg for me)

And the ones they possess, they love the chase, love the chase

We reach for the things we idolize

(Idolize)

But the rings are just for show

Her beauty is a form of charity

(Charity)
