Metaphors
Jump to...
Bitters give us a solid shimmering pop song with a great chorus and interesting lyrics. Yep, ‘Metaphors’ is a sweet track with a rich sound.
It kicks off with an acoustic guitar, surrounded by sonic flickers. It builds up, only to get a squashed equalizer treatment for a low-down first verse. The pre-chorus hints of something arriving, and the heartbeat pause makes sure the velvety thick chorus hits all the right spots.
This song in full swing is a real soundbed, woven from many different instruments and sounds. It’s smooth and soft, soaring in a great melodic arc.
‘Metaphors’ is an alternative love song, delivering an aching feeling of longing with a jumping beat and a soaring melodic delivery skimming across the rich music.
Metaphors Lyrics
Wait for me by the phone line
Gonna call you up
Gonna change your mind
My voice in the powerlines
I mean every wordBecause you are
You’re impossible to shake
And baby you are
You’re impossible to shakeDon’t it feel good
In my arms
Don’t it feel good
Laying on my floor
Life’s a highway
Love’s an ocean
Don’t it feel good
To Talk in metaphorsMy brain’s flooding pretty hard
With pictures of your face
And all your body parts
I’ll let you hold all the cards
If you just open upBut you are
You’re impossible to change, girl
But maybe you, you are
You’re not looking for the chase
AnymoreDon’t it feel good, in my arms?
Don’t it feel good, laying on my floor?
Life’s a highway
Love’s an ocean
Don’t it feel good
To Talk in metaphors
