Just because.

Send us a blindfold, send us a blade
Tell the survivors help is on the way
I was a blind fool, never complained
All the survivors singing in the rain
I was the one with the world at my feet
Got us a battle, leave it up to me

Find us a trap door, find us a plane
Tell the survivors help is on the way
I was a blind fool, never complained
All the survivors singing in the rain
I was the one with the world at my feet
Got us a battle, leave it up to me

What it is and where it stops nobody knows
You gave me a life I never chose
I wanna leave but the world won’t let me go
Wanna leave but the world won’t let me go

I was the one with the world at my feet
Got us a battle, leave it up to me
Leave it up to me

Just announced on Metric’s myspace :

Our new album – FANTASIES – will be in stores across the USA & Canada on April 14, 2009 and in the rest of the world shortly thereafter. Starting March 2, 2009, you’ll be able to pre-order FANTASIES directly from us here in one of several excellent bundles including limited edition vinyl, deluxe hardcover CD and straight up download, along with some exclusive extras. Anyone who pre-orders will immediately get an MP3 of the first single “Help I’m Alive”. Until then, here is a free download of an acoustic version of “Help I’m Alive”. We’re also working on worldwide touring plans, dates will be announced soon.

Love always,
Metric

Is it April yet?

The acoustic version is lovely. I may even like it more than the electric version right now.
