    "Risk" Lyrics :::
    [Verse 1]
    So you got away, something brought you back
    To the kid that you were
    For a couple days everything you lacked
    You possessed, it was yours
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Started slow, started late
    Started strong, then we lost faith
    Started slow, started to lose control
    The more we accelerate
    [Verse 2]
    With your hollow eyes, you keep coming back
    It begins to transform
    Can you spend the night? Can you be the raft?
    In the eye of the storm?
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Started slow, started late
    Started strong, then we lost faith
    Started slow, started to lose control
    The more we accelerate, the more we accelerate
    [Chorus]
    Can I send this kiss right to you now?
    'Cause the risk belongs with you somehow
    Can I return this kiss that you gave?
    Already know it’s borrowed anyway
    Was the risk I sent to you received?
    All the words we say to be believed?
    I’m already over the thrill of pursuit
    Where can I take the risk I took with you?
    Send this kiss to someone new?
    [Verse 3]
    So you're beaten up but you bounce back
    It’s all part of the pull
    And the story runs like a soundtrack
    We repeat 'til we're full
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Started slow, started late
    Started strong, then we lost faith
    Started slow, started to lose control
    The more we accelerate, the more we accelerate
    [Instrumental break]
    [Chorus]
    Can I send this kiss right to you now?
    'Cause the risk belongs with you somehow
    Can I return this kiss that you gave?
    Already know it’s borrowed anyway
    Was the risk I sent to you received?
    All the words we say to be believed?
    I’m already over the thrill of pursuit
    Where can I take the risk I took with you?
    Send this kiss to someone new?
    [Instrumental break]
    [Outro]
    So there's no way to hide
    Find some daylight
    There's another way to leave the Garden of Eden
    And I'm inclined to try
    Find some daylight
    Hollow eyes
    There's another way to leave the Garden of Eden
    And I'm inclined to try

    This song came at the most perfect time for me personally. I'm sure it does for many many others. This particular song and the album it is in is part of my journey to quit my day job as a laboratory tech. This video is just a week before it. I quit so I could take the crazy risk to do music with my bandmates. Finish an album, tour, etc. It's an insane and bittersweet risk, and as a 24 year old, it is something I require myself to do. I think a lot of young people need to take risks to chase the seemingly impossible. It will be too late if we wait. The thing that will hurt is the money and the possibility of failure.. but I will take this risk to save my soul.
    As a major fan of Metric, with a tear running down my eye, I cannot appreciate them enough for their sound and lyrics to be part of my story. I will remember the Art Of Doubt album forever. Thank you Metric. Young dreamers have to hear you.

    metric is definitly an example of why it can be so hard to put a band into some generic category, their so unique, they combine so many different sounds and elements from different places, you can hear pop, indie, electronic, alt rock, punk all in the same song. I think their one of the most diverse bands out their. and one of the best, after all how many other bands that have been around as long as metric has are still putting out great music, damn near zero. Great video too. Separate note, look up winona ryder in blonde hair, her and emily are damn similar looking, every time i see winona i think oh theirs emily from metric in brown hair.

    I don't think I believe in The Perfect Band. I used to think there was at least one forgettable song in every musician's repertoire. I can't find a single boring song in Metric's discography. Every single one is a neon confection of infectious chords, an undeniable backbeat, and lyrical soul candy that makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I found Pagans in Vegas by chance in a record shop, listened to it and fell headlong into an obsession. At this point, if Metric isn't the perfect band, don't tell me about it.
