System Of A Down - The Metro Lyrics






I'm alone
Sitting with my broken glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies

I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier standing next to me
Riding on The Metro

I was smiling as you took my hand
Saw the moon
We spoke in France
You were passed the shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
You were passed the shallow words
Years have passed and still the hurt
I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away
Sorry

I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
"I'll love you always" filled my eyes
I remember the night we walked along the Seine
Riding on The Metro

I remember a feeling coming over me
Then the soldier turned and walked away
Fuck you for loving me
Riding on The Metro

ahhh

  21. r.... ....

    Perfection

  22. A.... M....

    i can not believe i am just now listening to this after 13 years of being a fan. i love everything they have ever made and i am sure many can agree it was refreshing to hear something "new", specifically this song.

    I heard the Berlin version first and it's one of my favorite 80s tracks. I only found out way later that SOAD covered it. And holy shit, was it everything I hoped it would be.

  27. u.... t....

    Very, Very, Very Underatted.

    I remember listening to this in 2010 as a senior in high school 😂 time flys

  32. r.... A....

    Muy buena cancion

  33. R.... ....

    Not of my favs, but epic song anyway. All System of a Down songs are epic

  34. E.... S....

    It's Impressive how it looks more an original song then a Cover

    E.... S....

    Epic Shadow 96 thats the beauty of soad.

  35. m.... b....

    Real bass!!! Shavo is Real bassplayer

  36. P.... S....

    The Chorus is so punk rock while the rest is straight up metal. I love it

    P.... S....

    and​ a​ little​ bit​ reggae

  37. A.... Z....

    FUCK. YOU. FOR LOVING MEEEEEEEEE

    A.... Z....

    I remember hating you for loving me. Ridin' on the metro oh oh

  38. j.... ....

    Hey guys, check out my guitar cover of Metro!
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cGd9bOJepU

  39. S.... ....

    Oh boy this snare is perfect

  40. C.... ....

    This is absolute garbage. I like system of a down but I'll be goddamn if they take one of the greatest songs of all time and make it sound like pure horseshit. This is for cock smokers who have no appreciation of the great Berlin.

    C.... ....

    What a little bitch who can't allow people to pick their own preferences. I get the feeling you're the kind of numbskull who thinks the original version of a song is the only good version. Berlin's a classic but I thought it was cool what SOAD did with the song here.

    C.... ....

    @Edriss Scofield if the remake is good I like it, this song wasn't made for nu metal or whatever.

  41. H.... W....

    FUCK YOU FOR LOVING ME!
    riding on the metro...

    Best line.

    H.... W....

    The original "I remember hating you for loving me" sounds more poetic and I love it but this is much more satisfying on a visceral level. FUCK - YOU - FOR LOVING MEEE

  42. M.... W....

    My fave song

  43. P.... ....

    This is one of the first songs I learned on the drums as a kid and one of my first favorite songs they did, I'm so glad I found this I forgot it existed

  44. T.... ....

    Woooooooow
    Heard this version way long ago but never realized it was a cover lol

  45. R.... B....

    The beggining is from pacman. HAHAHAHA

  46. x.... ....

    Ah, the first song i ever pirated

    x.... ....

    xBMPR too bad it wasn’t part of steal this album

    x.... ....

    @Ian Ibarra it said steal this album why is everyone angry I pirated a song from it

  47. M.... ....

    I used to listen to this every time rode the metrobus

    M.... ....

    MrBlack202 cool to see others still looking at old songs even still to this day

  48. B.... ....

    I had no idea this was a cover of a Berlin song (take my breath away, top gun, same band).

  49. L.... T....

    CAPO DECILE AL CANTANTE ESE QUE CANTE BIEN Y A LOS WACHO DEL SUBIDON QUE ES UNA TREMENDA MIERDA PORQUE ESTAAA RE FUERTE WACHO CASI ME SORDO AMIGOOOOOOOOO ME HACE MAAL ODIO AHORA TE DENUNCIO

  51. f.... ....

  53. z.... ....

  54. B.... F....

    High School 2001

  55. T.... G....

    #imGoingTozkockYourAssLegendBreakerComboFakerUnliscensedAsssulateir

  56. C.... L....

    So good!

  57. E.... ....

    It's a real shame that serj and Daron are to busy with their pissing match to just get along and make a new album

    E.... ....

    Seriously

    E.... ....

    It's a pissing match to retarded and entitled fans but I'm certain whatever their differences are it's significant enough that they'll never be able to perform together the same way again. They don't owe us shit in any case, you greedy fucks

    E.... ....

    They do get along but they just get a hard time trying to put together the music they recorded. Let them take time on this.

  58. D.... ....

    Please come to a town near me SOAD!!!

  59. M.... s....

    S.O.A.D 💥

  60. J.... W....

    I remember 1982 listening to the album by Berlin

  61. 6.... ....

    Very Sick! They chop sueyed this song up. Fucking terrible!🤮

    6.... ....

    You only know Chop suey, right?

    6.... ....

    Since when did they change the meaning of "sick?" I feel old

  62. D.... S....

    I'm alone, sitting with my broken glass
    My four walls follow me through my past
    I was on a Paris train
    I emerged in London rain
    And you waiting there swimming through apologies
    I remember searching for the perfect words
    I was hoping you might change your mind
    I remember the soldier standing next to me
    Riding on the metro
    I went smiling as you took my hand
    So removed we spoke in France
    You were passed as shallow word
    The years have passed and still a hurt
    You were passed as shallow word
    Years have passed and still a hurt
    I can see it now smiling as I pulled away...
    Sorry
    I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
    "I'll love you always" filled my eyes
    I remember the night we walked along the Seine
    Riding on the metro
    I remember a feeling coming over me
    The soldier turned, then walked away
    I remember hating you for loving me
    Riding on the metro

  63. d.... m....

  83. J.... A....

    I love how their covers sound absolutely nothing like the original. So creative!

    J.... A....

    Yeah it's the coolest thing, I can listen to them back-to-back and it's like hearing different songs

  84. P.... 1....

    "riding on the metrooooooo" epic

  85. M.... ....

    Only just found out this is a cover this morning

  86. K.... ....

    Shimmy is the Best song

    K.... ....

  87. A.... N....

    Brasileiro system of a down!!!!!!!!!

    A.... N....

    Kkkkkkkkkkkkkikkkkkkkkkjkkkkkkkkjkkkjkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

  88. C.... M....

    Serj is soooo sexxxy

  89. I.... H....

    My music favorit

  90. L.... ....

    I don't like this, i prefer million times the original from Berlin.

    L.... ....

    not a chance. this is so much better

    L.... ....

    It's not a competition dipshit. But even it is you're still wrong, this is better than the original

  91. D.... C....

    Holy hell how did I not know they covered this song?

  92. J.... B....

    *F U C K*
    *Y O U*
    For loving *ME!*

    J.... B....

    .... riding on the metro....

  93. B.... S....

    Berlin only one

  94. M.... ....

    Soo good!

  95. s.... ....

    Fucking love this cover.

  96. M.... D....

    Oh, the days of downloading this on Kazzaa or Limewire and thinking this was a deep, unreleased track.

  97. A.... H....

    How the fuck do you guys think this is better than Berlin's original? I mean soad is good and shit, but Berlin's version... superb. Totally.

    A.... H....

    If you can pull your head out of your ass for just a second, it might occur to you that people aren't a hivemind. The original has its charm and deserves credit for being first but the sound design is just too different to compare them. Only an idiot would bother trying. I'll let you off with a warning this time

  98. D.... ....

    01:32 I like the way he pronounce "friends'

    D.... ....

    He's saying France...

    D.... ....

    You can leave..

  99. J.... T....

    Good song, but anyone who says its better than the original lacks chromosomes and has syndrome of down, yes, pun intended. The original was a dance oriented synth pop, this one is nu metal. Very different purposes, different styles for different tastes, saying this one is better just because you prefer metal to synth pop is like....FUCKING RETARDED obnosciousness proper of juvenile morons.
    Fucking act your age.

    J.... T....

    This is better than the original. Fuck your conceited opinion, it's not gonna change shit
