Metric - Time Is A Bomb Lyrics

Metric Lyrics

"Time Is A Bomb"

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

I am always up and I'm always down
I am always up and I'm always down
To be the number you call in the night
Don't even ask "am I okay," I am always down
To be the number you call in the night
Don't even ask "am I awake"
I am always up and I'm always down
I am always up and I'm always down

I am always up and I'm always down
Anytime I hear your voice, I fall in love with the sound
I am always up and I'm always down
Anytime I hear your voice, I fall in love with the sound
I am always up when you are in town
Anytime

I love to flirt with disaster
I love to flirt with disaster
Time is a bomb
Time is a bomb
I love to flirt with disaster
I love to flirt with disaster
You're my happily ever after
You're my happily ever after
You're my happily ever after
Time is a bomb that's ticking

Yeah, yeah

I am always down to be the number tattooed on your mind
You'll find the others fading to grey
I am always down but never under with you on the line
I'll take whatever's coming my way

I am always up and I'm always down
Anytime I hear your voice, I fall in love with the sound
I am always up when you are in town
Anytime

I love to flirt with disaster
I love to flirt with disaster
Time is a bomb
Time is a bomb
I love to flirt with disaster
I love to flirt with disaster
Time is a bomb that's ticking faster
Time is a bomb that's ticking faster

You're my happily ever after
I love to flirt with disaster
Time is a bomb that's ticking faster
Time is a bomb that's ticking faster
You're my happily ever after
You're my happily ever after
You're my happily ever after
Time is a bomb that's ticking

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
I'm down, but I'm up for tonight
Yeah, yeah
I'm down, but I'm up for tonight
Yeah, yeah
