Metropolis Lyrics
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I left my heart in Metropolis
So far apart, I checked but the coast was clear
I feel like a postcard, I wish you were here
Subway through the dark, carriage through the park
Taxi down the street, get out and use my feet
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
As long as I'm coming home to you
Oh oh oh, as far as I can see
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
A thousand miles feels like a million years
Like hundreds of postcards that say I wish you were here (I can't even take it in)
Airplane through the sky, greyhound racing by
Dirt bike on the beach, sailboat on the sea
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
As long as I'm coming home to you
Oh oh oh, as far as I can see
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I left my heart in Metropolis.
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I left my heart in Metropolis
I feel like a postcard, I wish you were here
Taxi down the street, get out and use my feet
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
As long as I'm coming home to you
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
Like hundreds of postcards that say I wish you were here (I can't even take it in)
Airplane through the sky, greyhound racing by
Dirt bike on the beach, sailboat on the sea
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do
As long as I'm coming home to you
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me
Like a hijacked plane or a runaway train
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping this
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
I left my heart in Metropolis
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I can't even take it in
Oh oh, I left my heart in Metropolis.

great music video!
Adam said it himself, this song is, yes, about Superman. However, it is mostly about bullying. And yes this is made obvious by the music video.
To me, this song seems like a long-distance relationship. I think this could be talking about a guy going to see his long-distance girlfriend for the first time in months, and when it says 'I left my heart in Metropolis,' the song's talking about leaving his heart with her, in the city she lives in.
