MGMT - Metanoia Lyrics
Metanoia, reshaping the world
It can teach you
And reprogram you
It can show you the flood
That's trapped inside
The tail is breathing
And she's listening
Kill the serpent
Divide, disperse and grow
Into an oak
A silver lining on a black scale
Wicked hunter on three hooves he still rode
But where is the fourth?
You can climb there
To your lofty perch
Mystic referee, don't look on me with scorn
I'm a child, I'm a lover being born
Satchidananda
Disregard the path I'm on
You can justify the action, should you bless
My ambition and my indecisiveness
Satchidananda
Let me know that you exist
Watch me tremble as I'm answering the phone
I am separate from everything you know
Mystic referee I promise to return
Once I've given up and lessons have been learned
Satchidananda
You can watch my fire burn
We were talkin' junk right,
Just before the show
This wild-eyed kid came up to the fence
He took one look at us, and he said:
"Help me,
Drummer,
Ticket,
Yeah!"
We didn't play his favorite song,
Now he'll never come to another show
Hospitals and woods confirm
Red in the eyes of everyone
Parasites and lovers scrape the meat from bones
Turned into jade and tiger's eye
Save me some dark hair over a face like hers
She'll help the rain come to a pour
Bathroom floor of stone and tiles broke in two
Warm where they touch her porcelain
Timid skin I'm careful to untie this road
Wrapped in a knot indifferent
Lion's foot unearthing all the things I've seen
But never truly understood
Rotten wood from oceans that were never green
Crumbles beneath the canopy
Secretly
Let's pretend we never touched the sugar
Tonight, under rose
You won't find another wheel to roll
When autumn winds appear
We wear these fears on our right
It just wants to be surreal 'cause
All dressed in diamond image jeans
Mercury's found in old field
We miserable in love
And chance we walked
Right on in, into the streets of the city but
Watching people disappear
Without reaching out
Years and years
You're left by yourself
On the wheel

5:00 a.m and I'm listening to this song
Anna thetomgirl 16388 7 am, i win
@Abe Hoard I'm not in the competition 😊
Watch me trembling when I'm answering the phone, I did sometimes
WTFFF!! this is OMG!! MGTM seriously this is a really true master piece. THEY DESERVE RESPECT.
U N D E R R A T E D
It's little sounds like Bohamian raphsody
Ya'll feeling how lucky we are that somebody made this music? Like i'm just sitting here and I feel lucky because of the feeling that I am having right now.
forgotaboutbre I feel that all the time. True af. Not too many people have that type of appreciation for music.
Meta-known-ya ¯\_( ツ )_/¯
He clearly is talking to god
We changeing the world
So it's safe to say when a Greatest Hits of theirs is released (And DVD of their videos) it will be the greatest compilation of modern times?
They're my favorite band right now, but no, there are some other bands with more/better hits
@primo I don't know about better but other bands have definitely done better in the industry
@Ryan Coleman there is a difference
[Edit: there's the difference]
Reshaping the world
A few of the verses in this need to be songs of their own
Just choked on my tangwich
Who's still here 2018? Who still here for daily play!!!
This is the cheese.
Satchidananda means bliss in spanish Bien aventurado.
Youre welcome
Why don’t they make more songs like this?
Songs like this and Siberian Breaks clearly aren't commercially successful
4:50 - 6:41 <3 <3 <3 <4 <3
MGMT is just LSD for your ears.
And it's a very nice trip.
excellent
Part 1 (0:00 - 1:40)
Part 2 (1:41 - 3:28)
Part 3 (3:29 - 5:01)
Part 4 (5:02 - 6:40)
Part 5 (6:41 - 9:45)
Part 6 (9:46 - 11:05)
Part 7 (11:06 - 14:02)
I feel all of my favorite artists coming alive in this song: David Bowie, Queen, Pink Floyd, Muse, Marilyn Manson. Pure magic.
Beautiful psychedelic memorys with this great song. Mystic referee
the intro is just so good. i keep replaying it over and over, idk y
In my humble opinion, add "Alien Days" to the mix, although only a normal length song and I would have to agree! MGMT and Tame Impala are probably my two favorite bands these days.
I love the last part
NOW HE'LL NEVER COME TO ANOTHER SHOW NOW HE'LL NEVER COME TO ANOTHER SHOW NOW HE'LL NEVER COME TO ANOTHER SHOW NOW HE'LL NEVER COME TO ANOTHER SHOW.
Well this song sure as fuck isn't about me, thats for sure.
awesome. the full Bowie is so sick
Definitely elements of an Homage to Bowie’s Cygnet Committee
I point and laugh at people who still want MGMT to make Electric Feels and Time to Pretends.
To be fair, Time to Pretend is its own kind of high. Love the contrast between the music and the words.
Wow I just as able to go really deep with this song 👌🏻 thanks
This is: the answer.
fuck feelings
Can please someone explain the lyrics for me? lol
11:04 that belongs in a dystopian film.
11:00 until the end transports me to my perfect world
What album is this from?
It's released as a single around the Time to Pretend era.
pyta merda q delicia de musica
are u kidding me? ive been a fan of mgmt for 6 years and only heard this song today ?!?!!? HOW
A real fan should know this song since Oracular spectacular
Im a real fan. I just hate other people and the internet. I try and stay away from both. Ive been a fan of MGMT since 2011-2012 and i just found both this and Siberia yesterday. Better late than never
Sounds like an alternate version of Siberian Breaks
No really, Siberian Breaks is the alternate version of this.
wonderful...Magical and outlandish.
MGMT <3
It's like Queen, Bowie, Pink Floyd and Led Zepps mixed together
Exactly my thoughts! :)
Alaaa mierdaa eso sí que sería una combinación brutal!! :O
💸💸💸👻♥️👽😹👼🏻
I had an orgasm at 8:50.
For real. I had to put on music to cover the sound of my vibrator.
lets pretend we never touched the sugar.
7:00<333333😍😍 forever in love with Andrew vanwyngarden
Is it just me, or does the lead singer (Andrew VanWyngarden) sound kind of like Jimmy Page?!
best thing ever.
this band MGMT is like a bastard baby of Pink Floyd and The Beatles
I hear it. I love it.
The Beatles? Shit no, dud
@Deathcrush Every listen to Sgt.Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band? If so, you will hear similarities
Mmmm Ween should be the true son. And MGMT Is your son.
6:45 😍😍😍
thank you for this video 👍
Damn I love this song
neredesiniz eyyyy osmanli...
Fallout 4
Dad remember me.!
This song speaks right through me, when I'm insecure most of all... Sometimes all we need is some metanoia.
oh i love this side of youtube
music is love, share love
That's kinda edgy
Resumiu perfeitamente
3:37....is that Henry Rollins talking or am I tweaking
+Rebeca Cervantes What the hell are you talking about brotha
+jasen muller dude I swear that's Henry Rollins talking at 3:33
+Rebeca Cervantes Ohhh.. It doesn't really sound like him, kind of sounds like andrew putting on a voice, but maybe modeled after something Henry once said or something?
It's ben goldwasser (the keyboardist)
This is incredible
Very Beatles :P LOVE IT :)
1:35 to 1:51 queen?
that led zeppelin <3
6:42 Después de mucho Tame Impala vuelvo a mis raíces y MGMT <3 They are so good.
si te gusta este estilo te recomiendo jack and the ripper
the magic flowing begins at 4:50
It began flowing as soon as the ad ended...
very pink floyd
I think its up there with siberian breaks..I just recently listened to this song all the way through.I was like whooa who knew...
siberian breaks is my favorite song by them
Wait, is the picture MOVING???
+Khasar no
It's all in your head
Kiara Mercury i feel the same :p
great stuff had each cd in car each summer for several years
Not even close to being as good as Siberian Breaks, but it's a pretty trippy tune.
1:51 goes full David Bowie
Do you know songs that are like that?
Denim94 More like Led Zeppelin than Bowie
in the light- Led zeppelin
Yall are wrong. It goes full on Pink Floyd the Wall...
JIMSTER WAS HERE*_+
wow, this song goes "blade runner" at the end. full rutger hauer. mega love mgmt. best band ever. sending me on a trip this saturday.
I hear Bowie "Man who sold the world" at 6:50
Yeah that's right
El minuto 11 al 14, wowwwww!
Do a barrel roll...
;)

Simple analysis - those who likes metanoia and siberian breaks must be a fan of floyd..
You guys need to listen Yes, then...
How’d you know!
Of course
@Nika i hear tame, a tinge of beatles and seven nation army dude a little too
Not really
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PymZXVlW1AA
this is like another twist of Siberian breaks O:
I fucking love this song.
Im riding the bus from San Jose to Los Angeles and its been 6 hours so far. Theres 30 minutes left though for me to arrive to LA. Im just going to listen to Metanoia and Siberian Break to end this amazing trip. By the way its 6:00 am and our bus overheated but it ended up working again. Have a wonderful day people. <3
Megabus!!!
@omgwtfbbqmixes Greyhound lol
@gokunumberone I can feel you bro. Thanks
this song got me high
IDK why but this song is so soothing, not to mention brings up flashbacks of the riskier days and the lovely comedowns
What album is this from? Can't believe I missed this
tis a single
@Austin Crane An EP, in fact.
Oddly enough, it's considered a B-Side of Oracular Spectacular, despite it having a more Congratulations style sound. I'm pretty sure it was released in the time gap between those two albums.
Yes, only in vinil i guess
Metanoia and Siberian Breaks are the best fucking songs of all time!
Marry me?
I 100% agree
fuck yes
timeless...
W E C A R E
I just discovered this band. I honestly love them. They are just so unique c:
This has got to be like, their Bohemian Rhapsody.
Or Siberian breaks
+sweaq123 hahaha yeah... keep believing that
subjective af
sam alaniz siberian breaks takes the puppy cakes
But way better
