Lyrics
Metroland
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We live and we die,
We love and we lie.
In hope and in plan,
Installed in metroland.
Seal then, then a life
And again gets in decline.
Controlled on command,
Concealed in metroland.
You say, run away,
I say, here we stand.
Today is yesterday,
Everyday in metroland.
We fail and we fall,
We fear and we crawl.
With faith in our hands,
We burn in metroland.
You say, run away,
I say, here we stand.
Today is yesterday,
Everyday in metroland.
Metroland,
Metroland,
Metroland,
In metroland,
Everyday in metroland,
Metroland,
Metroland...
