lyrics

i am the metronome. i found a breath, a breath of gold.

with lungs strong and fixed with some kind of air.

you don’t know how long i’ve waited
you don’t know how long i’ve waited

i am the metronome. i found a breath, a breath of gold.
i leave you on god’s broken down shores.

i’m the metronome.
