    Paths in the Sky Lyrics :::
    Paths in the sky, paths in the sky
    That's you and me, and we'll always be
    Half hitting highs, half flying blind
    Till death divides, that's you and I
    In your ragged coat one boring night
    You dragged me out to cure the blues
    That seemed to be destroying me
    Said, tell me all your brutal news
    At the back of the bar in the basement
    By candlelight I couldn't hide
    Those battles I could once survive
    Now seemed to be destroying me
    You shook your head, laughed when I said
    What a waste of an education
    Time flying on a path
    Moving through the sky
    I don't ever want to land
    Flying on a path
    Moving through the sky
    There's no way to stop the time
    Flying on a path moving through the sky
    Play along and make it last
    Flying on a path moving through the sky
    So without you now, where would I be
    So many trials and fantasies
    When I was broke you covered me
    Our actions speak in a heavenly
    Substitute for a conversation
    Time flying on a path
    Moving through the sky
    I don't ever want to land
    Flying on a path moving through the sky
    There's no way to stop the time
    Flying on a path moving through the sky
    But we're doing what we can
    Flying on a path, know we're flying blind
    Paths in the sky, paths in the sky
    Till death divides, that's you and I
    Till the stars mutate
    Till a meteor hits your apartment
    Sparks radiate your veins
    Wearing sequined gloves
    I saw the vase in the space, two faces
    Took me a lifetime of contemplation
    Time flying on a path
    Moving through the sky
    I wish I could stop the time
    Flying on a path moving through the sky
    Tried to sneak out through the back
    Flying on a path moving through the sky
    Play along and make it last
    Flying on a path, know we're flying blind
    There's no way to stop the time
    Flying on a path, know we're flying blind

      That's exactly how I felt the first time I heard it: Dagger straight through the heart. Easily one of Metric's best songs ever, if not the best.
      Saw them perform it live tonight and was honestly not expecting it to make the setlist. I screamed really loud as soon as it started haha

    • @one-bell
      @one-bell Před rokem +1

      It's a fantastic closing track to one heck of an album. It continues with the themes of emerging from disaster through hope for the future, and has an 'endless' quality that makes it an apt 'unitl next time' from Metric.

    Favorites so far: this one and Doomscroller! VERY different sounds. One being very dark, before progressing into the light, and this one being just 100% straight-up wholesome! Anyway... love it!! Thank you for always making me feel things, with your beautiful voice, Emily. All the best, from Norway.

    I thought Doomscroller would be best one for sure... but this... this too is soooo good. In a different way. All tracks I have listened I have liked, but something in this one feels like it's telling about my life as well... And life in general.

    As my first listen of this album drew to a close, and the sound finished fading out, the first thought I had was about how great of a closer this song is. Now that I've had a whole year for it to sit with me, I'm more convinced than ever that this is one of the all-time great closing tracks. The last time I remember noticing a great closer was about a decade ago - Home on LCD Soundsystem's This is Happening. In fact, both these songs have quite a lot in common.
    Both end their albums on a positive, hopeful note after having covered a lot of dark and difficult topics in the other songs.
    Both begin with people going out socializing in order to cheer up:
    "one boring night - You dragged me out to cure the blues - That seemed to be destroying me"
    "So grab your things and stumble into the night - So we can shut the door on terrible times"
    Both have themes of time moving inescapably forward:
    "There's no way to stop the time" and "This is your last chance - Forget the past - Like nothing will last"
    This song's "Flying on a path Moving through the sky" could lead directly into Home's "And head again into space"
    And both songs have the same primary message - the importance of leaning on friends to get you through dark times and sticking with them as you journey through life.
