"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

It's cool to hear her voice in an acoustic setting. She is really talented.

[damnice]

This is by far the best zombie survival song ever written.

[donal]

Dying Light 2 has this amazing song in their demo walk-through they just released :) Glad it brought me here

[miketheth]

When I saw them a year ago in Oakland, their equipment didn't get shipped so they played an acoustic set and opened with this.

[jstonehoh]

How, for 13 years, did I never hear an acoustic version. This song means so, so much to me. Thank you Metric

✌🏻❤🇨🇦😜

[shebmiller]

"come take my pulse the pace is on a runaway train" and the faint guitar strumming in the back sounds just like a train intersection to me. perfect

[jetworthington]

this song saved me from much inner conflict.... truly magical

[shujinkhaine]

Possibly one of the most gifted bands of our time

[turtlsoup]

So raw, her voice is incredible, and here you can really hear it at its core. I love the piano she is playing on also.

[jasmine]

I can feel all the emotion in her voice much better in the acoustic version. this is beautiful.

[Ohbirdsss]

I think this song defines and perfectly describes all the anxiety I've ever felt in in my life in dealing with people. In under six minutes...holy shit.

[mycazglinski]

I love this song and hearing it in Dying Light 2 was a lovely surprise. I synced the video up to the game.

[fandomrandom]

Her voice has a child-like playfulness/innocence to it. Love her!

[MrWarlord]

There is just something about her voice thats unique love this song.

[jagfan]

This is GREAT. I love when bands do an acoustic version of a rock type song and release it.

[willowwisp]

Incredible….. brings me back to my late teen years

[Topazera]

This is one song where I LOVE both the original and the acoustic version, I really couldn't pick which is better. But this song pops into my head, it's usually the moment @4:10 that jumps out to me. The simplicity there is SO good.

[Queenminny]

Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender...

Her voice is so serene and beautiful.
Omg. that guy messed it up

[EvesRevenge]

1st song I ever heard by Metric in '09 in Tower Records in Chicago-
... my whole body reacted and I immediately found out WHO IS THIS?!!

[orehub]

that awesome part at 1:45 it makes me wanna live (even if there are mosquitos in this world)
