Rock Me Now lyrics

Artist  : Metric 
Song : Rock Me Now



 Send "Rock Me Now" Ringtone to your Cell 

 

The town where she was born, like town where I
was born was built by white settlers seeking gold
and other treasures.

Like me she feels uncomfortable in the clothing
of her ancestors.

"It's not easy" she would say, putting
her fingers into the ashtray, "It's not easy
to erase your blood."



Rock me now 

(come on, sing with me)

in the arms of cobwebs

Roll me out 

(come on, sing with me)

in the arms of cobwebs



That night she found a man to treasure and
together they'd planted flowers of warning,
fearing frost.

Late on shallow evenings while their enemies
slept, they hammered the soil asking for answers
in green. 

His value declined when he offered his name. Why
did he offer it?



His value declined when he offered his name.

(Ah ah ah ah ah)



When she was 7 years old she saw a man get shot
but, no one came along for a long time because it
happened in a remote parking lot in Las Vegas

And she was waiting for her mom to come back from
working the blackjack table at the Circus Circus
casino.

And that night her mom said that the two of them
and the now dead guy were the only 3 people who
ever lived in Las Vegas.

Everybody else just arrived, ate their
complimentary shrimp cocktail, and left.



Rock me now in the arms of cobwebs

(It's a one room city, yeah)

Roll me out in the arms of cobwebs

(So can you roll with me?)

His value declined when he offered his name.



It's a one room city the wall to wall to wall to
wall to wall goes to street to street to
street
