"Speed the Collapse" Lyrics :::

ALL THE WAY FROM WHERE WE CAME
BUILT A MANSION IN A DAY
DISTANT LIGHTENING, THUNDER CLAPS
WATCHED OUR NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE COLLAPSE
LOOKED THE OTHER WAY

AND THEN THE STORM WAS OVERHEAD
ALL THE OCEANS BOILED AND RIVERS BLED
WE AUCTIONED OFF OUR MEMORIES
IN THE ABSENCE OF A BREEZE

SCATTER WHAT REMAINS
SCATTER WHAT REMAINS

PUSHED AWAY I'M PULLED TOWARD
A COMEDOWN OF REVOLVING DOORS
EVERY WARNING WE IGNORED
DRIFTING IN FROM DISTANT SHORES
THE WIND PRESENTS A CHANGE OF COURSE
A SECOND RECKONING OF SORTS
WE WERE WASTED WAITING FOR
A COMEDOWN OF REVOLVING DOORS

FATE DON'T FAIL ME NOW

AND WHEN THE DAYS THAT FOLLOWED PAST
IN ANOTHER MANSION BUILT TO LAST
FROM OUR WINDOW WE COULD SEE
ONLY POSSIBILITIES DOWN THE ROAD AND BACK

BUT THEN THE STORM RETURNED FOR MORE
IN A COMEDOWN OF REVOLVING DOORS
WE AUCTIONED OFF OUR MEMORIES
IN THE ABSENCE OF A BREEZE

SCATTER WHAT REMAINS
SCATTER WHAT REMAINS

FATE DON'T FAIL ME NOW

Damn 7 years really just past by just like that, crazy how fast life is moving

[psychocuda]

I love that octave downshift when she sings "but then the storm returned for more." It's so unsettling and perfect.

[ilikeassface]

"But then the storm returned for

That line gets me everytime

[NoorElahi]

Crazy how this band became an integral part of what keeps me sane

[jaymingupta]

10 years already. Those days ain’t coming back ever again 🥲

[sadpee]

the lyrics are so good. the vocals are perfect. the tone is perfect. such a great song, metric is so fucking good

[Chacas]

7 years ago, EA create one of the best fifa games of all time and put the best soundtrack, thanks for the memories, we always love u fifa 13 ❤️

[plpredictions]

This is one of the best songs ever - LOVE IT

[osi-baze]

One of the best songs ever made, thank you FIFA

[thomassss]

Good Ol Fifa 13 days when life was much more simpler 😔

[zantac]

Does anyone else get an odd vibe from this song? I can't stop listening to it

[eddiethemuffin]

I'm not crying, i just have fifa 13 in my eyes😪❤️

[osamaritano]

10 anos atrás estava eu completando meus 14 anos de idade e vem a minha mãe me dar de presente de aniversário FIFA 13, só jogava PES antes disso, era minha primeira vez que colocava a FIFA no meu Xbox 360. Até hoje quando escuto essa música lembro exatamente dessa cena. Cena inesquecível que estará marcado em meu coração.

[daftyfunky]

The soundtracks on the FIFA games were one of the few things were EA was able to consistently deliver top notch quality. This song is perfect proof for that.

[occultsymbols]

This is a classic. I usually don't listen to music like this. I totally forgot about this song after listening to it on FIfa13. Now 10 years later it found me again and it sounds better than ever

[geraldsnyder]

Prophetic in our own time. To see only a decade ahead is a gift. Emily has that gift.

[Death-fhtj]

11 years gone by just like that. Never in my whole existence did I feel so meaningless. I don’t want to die.

[AdiSulema]

I've been listening to this repeatedly. The lyrics and the melody are mesmorising. I love this so much!

[starboy.]

This is the best FIFA song ever. Period.

[mertosar]

This song only reminds me of all the coins I wasted on packs... Best time of my life...


GOODBYE FIFA 13
