Keane - Perfect Symmetry Lyrics






I shake through the wreckage for signs of life
Scrolling through the paragraphs
Clicking through the photographs

I wish I could make sense of what we do
Burning down the capitols
Wisest of the animals

Who are you? What are you living for?
Tooth for tooth. Maybe we'll go one more

This life is lived in perfect symmetry
What I do that will be done to me

Read page after page of analysis
Looking for the final score
We're no closer than we were before

Who are you? What are you fighting for?
Holy truth? Brother, I choose this mortal life
Lived in perfect symmetry
What I do that will be done to me

As the needle slips into the run-out groove
Love, maybe you feel it too

And maybe you'll find,
Life is unkind
And over so soon
There is no golden gate
There's no heaven waiting for you

Oh, boy, you ought to leave this town
Get out while you can
The needle's running out
The voices in the streets you love
Everything is better when you hear that shout

Spineless dreamers hide in churches
Pieces of pieces of rush-hour buses
I dream in e-mails, worn-out phrases
Mile after mile of just empty pages

Wrap yourself around me
Wrap yourself around me

As the needle slips into the run-out groove
Maybe I'll feel it too
Maybe you'll feel it too
Maybe you'll feel it too
Maybe you'll feel it too

I dream in e-mails, worn-out phrases
Mile after mile of just empty pages

    their lyrics are so underrated

  51. D.... N....

    This song always stuck in my mind. I cry and happy inside. Sing a long 2:51 - 3:05 💕

    D.... N....

    (Not really) too bad that they have to cut some verses from that part cause it's kinda tough to listen to when you're so used to the album version
    But yeah, still one of the very best from Keane definitely

    Btw, I shivers more to the "wrap yourself around me" part, just behind yours haha

    D.... N....

    ipungipung90 yeah i mean for the full version too. Just perfect.
    Hahaha right, everyone has their own part to sing along.

  52. F.... F....

    Tom's vocals ✨ I'm crying 😭💖 thank you Keane for being amazing

  53. b.... 7....

    So many lines they took out of this song in this video...probably one of Keane's best ....love it when they perform this live

  54. T.... ....

    Why his voice reminds me of Brian Molko?

  55. l.... p....

    Cuando era niña y tenía miedo en las noches, ponía esta canción y me liberaba de todo eso. 😌 Gracias Keane.

  56. M.... L....

    Like si lo escuchabas antes y si lo sigue escuchando en 2019 yo si siempre tuve fe de que volverian algun dia lo bueno que siguen con su mismo estilo ya que pocas bandas siempre cambian el estilo pero Keane sigue con su mismo estilo eso me agrada mucho Keane es una banda muy buena sus letras y su estilo son unico ya que hay pocas bandas asi hoy en dia :) ;) :D

    "Perfect Symmetry"

    I shake through the wreckage for signs of life
    Scrolling through the paragraphs
    Clicking through the photographs

    Who are you, what are you living for
    Tooth for tooth, maybe we'll go one more

    This life, is lived in perfect symmetry
    What I do, that will be done to me


    I wish I could make sense of what we do
    Burning down the capitols
    Wisest of the animals


    Who are you, what are you fighting for
    Holy truth, brother I chose this mortal life
    lived in perfect symmetry

    What I do, that will be done to me
    As the needle, slips into the run out groove
    Love, maybe you feel it too

    And maybe you find, life is unkind
    and over so soon
    There is no golden gate
    There's no heaven waiting for you

    Oh boy you otta leave this town
    get out while you can
    the needle's running out
    The voices in the streets you love
    everything is better when you hear that shout
    woooaohhh

    spineless dreamers, hide in churches

    mile after mile of just empty pages

    wrap yourself around me
    wrap yourself around me

    as the needle, slips into the run out groove
    maybe i'll feel it too
    maybe you'll feel it too
    maybe you'll feel it too
    maybe you'll feel it too

  86. J.... M....

    Some Manic Street Preachers vibe

  87. U.... ....

    iglesia (church) = disfruta allá y entonces, en la otra vida (enjoy there and then, in the afterlife)
    Mensaje de Keane (Keane's message)= disfruta el aquí y ahora, lo que sigue no lo sabes (enjoy the here and now, what's next is unknown)'.

  88. J.... C....
