Alkaline Trio
Metro
[Verse 1]
I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies

[Chorus]
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the metro

[Verse 2]
You wore white
Smiling as you took my hand
So removed
You spoke of wintertime in France
Minutes passed with shallow words
Years have passed and still I hurt
Oh, I can see it now
Smiling as I pulled away
[Chorus]
I remember a letter wrinkled in my hand
I love you always filled my eyes
I remember in the night we walked along the Seine
Riding on the metro

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I remember a feeling coming over me
A soldier turned, then looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
Riding on the metro

[Verse 3]
I'm alone
Sitting with my broken glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies
(Fucking asshole)

[Chorus]
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the metro, wow
