Evita Manji on “living and breathing metal” meaning:
It’s more abstract than literal, there are many layers of interpretation. The most literal would be all the pollution we breathe in the cities we live in. Otherwise, in a more figurative way it could be about our slow transformation into robots,...
[Verse 1]
I can see myself standing
Outside of glass on the wood
Under the metal (metal)
I can see myself standing
Outside of glass on the wood
Under the metal (metal)
The water is running through me and pipes that surround your body
Inside of the bodies, tell your daddy
[Chorus]
We know we've lost a world but we stay
Inside a glass, living and breathing metal
We know we've lost a world but what about we stay
Inside a glass, living and breathing metal
Living and breathing metal
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
The lungs of a burning body
We're feeling water together with glass as we go down, down
Down, down
The lungs of a burning body
We're feeling water together with glass as we go down, down
Down, down
(Down, down)
The lungs of a burning body
We're feeling water together with glass as we go down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
[Outro]
