The Metro Lyrics

I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
Laughing wolves
Following through my past

I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies

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

You were light
Smiling as you took my hand
So you moved
And spoke of what a time in France

Then you spit some shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
And I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away

I remember the letter wrinkling in my hand
Our love, you always filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the scene
Riding on the metro

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
Sorry

I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned and looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
Riding on the metro

Leave Me Behind

I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
Laughing wolves
Following through my past

I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies

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

You were light
Smiling as you took my hand
So you moved
And spoke of what a time in France

Then you spit some shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
And I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away

I remember the letter wrinkling in my hand
Our love, you always filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the scene
Riding on the metro

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
Sorry

I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned and looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
Riding on the metro

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
