Metric
The Mandate

As far back as it goes, we watch the time move by
And say our mothers' names with a smile
Remember how she sang you a lullaby
How'd she ever do such good for you?

Take me back where I used to live
I want to see my old friends and how they've changed

I always said that when I grew up
I would give my friends another chance
To see their lives rearranged
If they wanna see me
I'm gonna be at the bottom of the hills
I'm gonna be standing with my back against the valley wall
I'm gonna look up at all the cool kids standing in their running shoes
I'm gonna walk away from all of that, all of that, all of them all

That's the last thing I can say about the future
(The future, the future)
I don't really know much about what I'm going to do when the days go by
(As they always do)
I guess all I really know, about where we're going to go
Is by looking at where we've been to
And I'm still looking at you

And I'm still looking at you
And I'm always looking for you
I'm still looking at you
Whenever I'm not
Whenever I'm not
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for you



Mirror lyrics:


I'm looking for you
I'm looking for you
Whenever I'm not
Whenever I'm not
I'm still looking at you
And I'm always looking for you
And I'm still looking at you

And I'm still looking at you
Is by looking at where we've been to
I guess all I really know, about where we're going to go
(As they always do)
I don't really know much about what I'm going to do when the days go by
(The future, the future)
That's the last thing I can say about the future

I'm gonna walk away from all of that, all of that, all of them all
I'm gonna look up at all the cool kids standing in their running shoes
I'm gonna be standing with my back against the valley wall
I'm gonna be at the bottom of the hills
If they wanna see me
To see their lives rearranged
I would give my friends another chance
I always said that when I grew up

I want to see my old friends and how they've changed
Take me back where I used to live

How'd she ever do such good for you?
Remember how she sang you a lullaby
And say our mothers' names with a smile
As far back as it goes, we watch the time move by
