“Cascades” is the second single from Metrics' upcoming album Pagans In Vegas. Metric consider this song to be “the pounding heart of [their] new album”.
The song will also appear on a limited-edition cassette EP called The Shade.
In her Letter to You, Emily Haines wrote
I want the words I wrote to...
[Verse]
Just keep going strong
With whatever it is, yeah
That's compelling you on, yeah
Don't be afraid when I'm gone
Keep whatever it is, yeah
That's compelling you on, yeah
[Chorus]
Cascading waves of emotion
Cascading over us still
From leaving feelings unspoken
The way we always will
[Verse]
Just keep going strong
With whatever it is, yeah
That's compelling you on, yeah
Don't be afraid when I'm gone
Keep whatever it is, yeah
That's compelling you on, yeah
[Chorus]
Cascading waves of emotion
Cascading over us still
From leaving feelings unspoken
The way we always will
[Outro]
Cascading waves of emotion
Cascading over us still
From leaving feelings unspoken
The way we always will
