Lyrics Metronome - White Hinterland

Metronome

Metronome, Metronome, Metronome
Can you keep up with me
Metronome, Metronome, Metronome
Keep up with me
Don’t need you to be my metronome no more
No more
I got so empty trying to fill up my days
All day long, I’m a boss
So when I get home I wanna put my day behind me
Take my shoes off, turn the clock off
Show me some respect
Maybe then I’ll let you ride with me
Metronome, Metronome
You got to keep up with me
I’m my own metronome
Can you keep up with me
Keep up with me
Not gonna be your loyal dog
No more, no more
You might had me on my knees once
But that don’t mean
I’m here to please you
«Shame on me, shame on me»
Said the one fishing for my sympathy
Not gonna whimper or cry
Or come when you call
Or curl at your feet 'cause you told me stay
Metronome, Metronome
You got to, you got to keep up with me
You got to, you got to keep up with me
Only way to rid the rot
Is to rip out the root
So I ripped out the root
Choked by vines all night
I was pulling out weeds
I was pulling out the weeds
Only way to rid the rot
Is to rip out the root
So I ripped out the root
And got rid of you
Onus is not on me
To make you a better man
Metronome, Metronome
Can you keep up with me
Can you keep up with me
Can you keep up with me
Don’t you tell me what I need
Don’t you tell me what I need
Don’t you tell me what I need
I need freedom
What I need
I need freedom
I need freedom
