Metric - Detour Up lyrics
[Metric - Detour Up lyrics]
Run naked through the hallways
Free your mind, people change
Start to lie like fur beside the fireplace
Soft and light, honest hands
Hard to say how I got here in the first place
Tell the wives we're running late
I took a detour up, a detour up
It wasn't in my plans but nothing was
I took a detour up, a detour up
The map was in the hands of none of us
I took a detour up, a detour up
It wasn't in my plans, nothing was
I took a detour up, a detour up
I don't know where I am, do all I can
Take the rough terrain by candlelight
Purple haze, bedroom eyes
Spiral like a staircase endlessly
What's the use asking why
Leave mystery alone, don't analyze
Chalk it up to lust for life
Dropped to the deepest strange unfamiliar place
But I can't imagine going any other way
I took a detour up, a detour up
It wasn't in my plans but nothing was
I took a detour up, a detour up
The map was in the hands of none of us
I took a detour up, a detour up
It wasn't in my plans, nothing was
I took a detour up, a detour up
I don't know where I am, do all I can
Detour up, a detour up
Detour up, a detour up
