"Help I'm Alive" Lyrics :::
[Verse 1]
I tremble
They're gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They're gonna eat me alive
[Hook]
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer?
[Chorus]
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
[Verse 2]
If we're still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn't I do?
I get wherever I'm going
I get whatever I need
While my blood's still flowing
And my heart still beats
[Hook]
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
[Chorus]
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender
Come take my pulse, the pace is on a runaway train
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
[Verse 2]
If we're still alive
My regrets are few
If my life is mine
What shouldn't I do?
I get wherever I'm going
I get whatever I need
While my blood's still flowing
And my heart still beats
[Hook]
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer (Beating like a hammer)
Beating like a hammer (Beating like a hammer)
Beating like a hammer (Beating like a hammer)
[Verse 1]
I tremble
They're gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They're gonna eat me alive
[Hook]
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer?
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
[Outro]
Help, I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer

My group got to open for Metric earlier this year!! They’re sooooo nice and down to earth and incredibly tight live!!! I’d see them again anytime

[@connorgraham3063]

What band are you in by chance I might check it out

[@Germsburn1234]

@@connorgraham3063 we’re called “social cinema” out of Lincoln, NE. We opened for metric at the temple live theater in Wichita Kansas. Super nice band!! Very kind to a small band like us. There’s actually a little 5 minute KZbin documentary of the night we put on our channel called “Evening With Social Cinema” and the metric one is episode 2

[@DaRyteJuan]

Wow. Lucky. 👍🏻

[@Germsburn1234]

[@trulyhuman6227]

Metric is so underappreciated.

[@lispendens]

Uhh not really ..

[@beanzburriton4263]

you can't appreciate something you don't know. they arent ran by a major record label so they dont get reported on much. it's about who's got your back, and they are indie. also hi

[@LJ-wg2tc]

I’m kinda glad people haven’t ‘discovered’ them too too much. (Besides being in movies, commercials, etc) They’re amazing and they’re still ours

[@flooseiscute]

I couldn’t agree more!

[@TEKKENMANJI]

Just like this comment is underappreciated. People are less inclined to pay attention to great art. It’s so much easier to look around and see all the Nirvana t-shirts and feel like you’re a part of something.

[@done1675]

This song is brilliant lyrically. So underrated.

[@Skipntosh]

💯. Always felt the same

[@srg3585]

Agree 100%

[@ryline666]

Everything that has ever happened is underrated

[@TheNervousnation]

Metric helped me out of some very hard times, my affinity for them is unequivocal.

[@TheNervousnation]

@It's Okay ok

[@TheNervousnation]

@It's Okay Thanks for the recommendation. Pretty damn good!

[@hydra11b__18]

Same

[@andresbarriga5305]

They did for me too. That band is still part of my history.

[@kennypowers7759]

Me too fellas. Great therapy.

[@ActofChange]

Emily Haines really is one of the most talented people in tbe world! And her band is great too!! Love you Metric!!!!

[@SkyManagerNYC]

Emily Haines is a goddess and easily the most gifted female musician out there today! You killed it in Seattle last week Metric

[@TheTrocadero56]

Lead singer has such a great voice...the new Debbie Harry...who I also love. Rock on Metric!

[@jennifersavage9872]

This song is definitely coming back to life. First time I heard it after I beat Dying Light 2. My #1 song right now. Absolutely love it.

[@samsmusichub]

This was one of the first performance videos I saw am Metric and was away! Since 2009 I've seen them 3 times but that's not nearly enough! I'm gonna see them every time they come to Seattle! They're living legends!

[@bones615]

Still can’t believe I missed there most recent show where I live always wanted to see them

[@samsmusichub]

@@bones615 Hopefully they come back soon! They played like 20 songs from most if not all of their albums. I was lucky to happen to look up their schedule and see that they were coming a couple week beforehand. Probably one of my favorite bands to see live, their songs come to life so well live! Maybe I'll see you at the next one!

[@nancyb7435]

Shear talent! The entire band! My God! Watch, listen and observe.

[@timstevens3361]

great song great band great performance

[@SPJBR]

Jeez! To sound like this live? She has tremendous talent, as do all of the other musicians. And this drummer! My god he's innovative.

[@chadmartfeld]

Check out the naked and the famous

[@alvinthompson6333]

Craig was always the best late night show in the early 2000's :)

[@thomasgifford2996]

Craig was always the best late night show-period.

[@jamesnix4556]

The band instruments,the voice,the sound blended in harmony.... making me dance with many moves.... even doing the pop and lock... soon near Malaga Spain....I will be dancing with my future wife to this song 😊😊😊

[@ranvijaysinghal6813]

I sfter soo many years I still loving this song because of tvd

[@KGBookkeeping]

Canada for the win! Metric is Canada’s greatest yet most under-appreciated group out there; some of the best!!!

[@veeveeisallyouneed]

I could listen to this every day.... Oh wait, I do.

[@feel4films889]

And she wrote this one in my hometown in Buenos Aires

[@boatlover2743]

One of the most underated canadian bands ever!! LOve this bands music

[@twelvexes]

Incredible song. One of my all time faves.

[@tomcat13claws]

awesome smile at the end...love this song

[@wajikay]

MY TWO FAVORITE THINGS: Craig Ferguson AND the Metric! !!!

[@bumlazer]

I saw them live on the 30th and I love the little back and forth jump she does it's interesting.

[@joelstorey5578]

Beautiful voice

[@ayramaccallum2655]

She radiates beauty, intelligence, and class. I personally would love to see her move into acting. I think she would be an interesting superhero or con artist or just plane 'survivor'.

[@paradoxdrifter]

Wow! Such a great performance.

[@pedroaguilar9370]

We thanks all you and your bandmates. Keep rocking fellas.

[@allaroundme5429]

Flawless live version 😍 close to the recording (especially the musicians, and the vocals are on point) 👌

[@MaxieChi]

Metric fan since the beginning. Metric fan forever.

[@ecinnian]

probably one of the best bands I discovered over the last couple of years, and I definitely have a crush on Emily!

[@dragoslav3859]

Every single one of their songs has a hook that keeps me listening.

[@Givingitashot]

Love for Metric:-)

[@guymandude999]

Excellent performance Emily! We love you!!!!

[@chrissrecinos]

Emily Haines is killing it, f*** what you think

[@Jahlive69]

This song still ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@CP-bz6iu]

What a song.!... so many memories in my mind...love it!

[@raana9586]

Mega-talented and underrated.

[@untamed94]

I Really Really Like their sound, it reminds of Really good 90's music

[@FunkmasterGeneralOne]

Help ... I'm in love! ;)

[@RealMudSkipper]

your comment deserved more. what a shame.

[@sierra6music]

hard to be soft tough to be tender.

[@maimiaa]

[@hmlira]

I love metric!!!!!!!!!

[@Dude11456]

MY FAVORITE BAND!!!

[@Holymakinaw]

They sound great live.

[@chadmartfeld]

I love it so much when it breaks into the choppy guitar riff..mmm makes where I need to be

[@HulkyTime]

Hahaha, I can't stop laughing at the way she's dancing. Those shoulder pumps are killing me!

[@christinadawn463]

I LOVE METRIC!

[@rollandjoeseph]

Such a fun , great group! She adorable too of course!

[@joelstorey5578]

I love her, so happy I found this group

[@Flightstar]

Cannot believe such brilliance with only 155k subs.. should be 15M. Hit the bell and like every song. which ain't too f'n hard if you love this band.

[@Ushi_oni__]

This is a seriously good song

[@BooksForever]

Metric blazes new paths and paves them with solid gold.

[@shinshaneirishaishiteru2017]

thats so true guess :) my eyes feel uneasy when she dances

[@trickerdgaming]

Just seen them live on the 29th of last month in Indiana! they was great.

[@EoinSpectre]

Now that's what I'm talking about! I great performance with no dislikes. Wait a minute, when have I talked about that?

[@kosterix123]

Thanks a lot Adam. What a pleasure to hear that, with period 's pictures.

[@1moredayof]

I first heard this song on CSI New York S8 E6. I had to hear it some more!

[@joshualevy869]

Sounds great. Looks awesome.

[@browniebean7384]

[@Tom-lq6nn]

Last I heard she is a singer not a dancer!!! And she is great at it!

[@craigwales615]

That lassie's range is fuckin awesome. 👍👍👍👍

[@MemoriesInMonochrome]

Badass Leather Baby ! 😎💖✌

[@HinkHall42069]

Such a great live band.

[@PunchAPeach]

No way man, it's totally a fusion of Norweigan samba and Ethiopian death metal! xD

[@krankifish1]

Would love to see them live! :)

[@MrTrefrog]

She's a pro!

[@MoreOverlords111]

I remember I first heard this song as an acoustic set on CBC Radio 1, and the way the vocals coincided I could have sworn they were saying, "beating like a hamburger". Not sure which is better, tbh :P

[@DanielMatzen]

You sir, are a boss.

[@Judas88-f3m]

I am Canadian & yes most of us are nice.

[@michaeladams5636]

Looking back this song great but it never really struck me as a great song when I first heard it, much like almost everything I’ve heard new on the radio the past 27 years.

[@Jr2green]

Metric is plainly epic.

[@HexNottingham]

Good performance, great band, not a fan of this shorter version though. The breakdown is my favourite part! Looking firward to finally seeing them live in Norfolk next week after missing them quite a few times.

[@juliawirch2454]

I've only ever heard this song...interesting. 👍
