Song 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 as shallow words
It isn't passed there's still a hurt
You were passed as shallow words
Years have passed there's still a hurt
I can see it now
smiling as you pulled away
SOR-RY!

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 and walked away
Fuck you, for loving me!
Riding on the metro

Agree with deathRinger!
I´we been wondering what it could be for some time and your suggestion adout this lyric is very reasonable. I beleve that every system song has a point of some kind. so can anybody tell me what they mean whith "CubErT"?

I agree with all of you, this is a great song but it wasn't written by S.O.AS.D. it was written by a new wave Band by the Name of Berlin. but still a great version.

Brilliant song, didn't realise there were so many hidden meanings in there though...I'm glad the lyrics are here, I was convinced it was saying, "you were passed the shallow end, isn't pasta still a herb?"

I totally agree with all the above! System is my favourite band (figured this out as i can listen to basically each CD and not feel the need to skip a song except maybe science which i dont really like). Anyway this song is fucken great - this chop suey and peephole are the best in my opnion!

GREAT cover song from SOAD! I saw a commercial n old 80's stuff and I heard "riding on the metro" some woman sang it. All this time I finally learned this was a cover song. lyrics are a slight different to masculine terms. awesome piece of work there

I agree with deadringer but i think "Riding on a metro" means the Up's and downs of life.(life being the ride)

The original song by Berlin was great, and this one is just as good, if not better.
