"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

This was my first Metric song. Watched this video 7 years ago. I'll be back in another 7.
do you came back?
Lol it hasn't been 7 more years yet. Patience my friend. If we're still alive, we'll get to know.
five more years!
Same. It was so different. Been a fan since.
I'm in my teens and this is still an amazing song. My dad discovered it and it's been one of our favorites since then!
My friend loved this song. RIP Jen. I hope you finally have the peace you couldn't find in life. 🖤
I am sorry, I hope you yourself are recovering
Condolences :(
Dawson, is that you?
❤

I always picture the zombie apocalypse in my head when I listen to this song.
Dying Light 2 will be doin that
fuck off
Lol

This band is SO underated!
Dying Light 2 devs must have been interested in using this song for so long
If you're listening, you know how to appreciate great music.
Still listening now
Still loving this so much!
!!!!!!!
Still
Never too old for good music
YES.
This was at the end of dl2 and her voice sounds so damn good I put it on repeat for awhile
lmao same, i was trying so hard to find the name before it stopped playing😅
dl2?
i love when you find a song you cant get enough. this is it for me right now
I think Fate did bring me here... I'm in Recovery and when she says "They're gonna eat me alive, if I stumble",, that part really gets to me ,, that and my heart beat "like a hammmer"....LOVE THIS GIRL!!!!
I hope u r holding down ur recovery it ain't easy I hope the best for u. I'm in recovery too.
@@freedomagolt4657 and I hope you and OP are doing well too! You're right about that - it isn't always easy, but it is always worth it to have a roof over your head and your head facing forward instead of looking over your shoulder. Peace!
U scared af to be unwelcomed... That has nothing to do with drugs... But drugs my have to do with being welcomed... Treat people like people, including youtself, and you'll be fine.
Zaria, I'm watching on 2/3/16, and I'm 67 yrs old (I just never grew up)! God bless you and Metric.
I'm 63 and just saw them live in LA. You are never too old to shake, dance and sing to Metric !
hope both you guys are still dancing
Hope you guys keep doing well, the quaratine is a hard and long phase
Love this band.
lol yall so cute . 🥺 keep yr spirit .
So that’s why techland choose this song for a zombie apocalypse genre game called dying light 2.
These old Metric´s tracks...the best
I always interpreted this song to be about anxiety- with the bridge being about her heart “beating like a hammer”, and worrying “if I stumble, they’re gonna eat me alive”. Then it goes into the chorus saying that everything is going to be alright- “if I’m still alive, my regrets are few” and “I get wherever I’m going, I get whatever I need”. This song is definitely in my top 10 favorite songs of all time and helped me get through a lot of my anxiety. Thanks Metric!!! ❤️❤️
Me too well said a great post.
I definitely agree on your interpretation.
I can pinpoint both my anxiety disorders (Generalized and OCD) to how I feel when i hear this song
My thoughts are that this song could be about stage fright or fear of rejection based on some of those very lyrics you mentioned. Also Emily’s father was the famed poet Paul Haines who committed suicide so maybe this song is about him? Anyways it also is in my top ten favorites. Love Metrics music.
Wouldn't choose any other song for DL2 ending, Supreme decision and son, can't stop listening and traveling in my mind
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's still
Beating like a hammer
This song hits me everytime with different waves emotions and goosebumps to add. Easily one of my favorite songs ever.
I tremble
They're gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They're gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
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
If you'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's still beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
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
If you'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's still
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
I tremble
They're gonna eat me alive
If I stumble
They're gonna eat me alive
Can you hear my heart beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer
Help I'm alive, my heart keeps beating like a hammer
Thank you
It’s undeniably amazing. Such a unique song
I'm watching it in 2020
Metric came to my playlist by accident, and now has been on the list of my favorite tracks for 4 years :3
Its 2022?
@@kat_blue This comment was made back in 2020
I absolutely adore the way Emily says "They're gonna eat me alive"
Such a good song.
This is my favourite song by Metric. Metric have so many great tunes so for me to put this at number tells you how much i dig this track. Friggin' awesome! They performed this on David Letterman and Craig Ferguson.
Metric, is a major contributor of the melting of thy heart, not even copious amounts of stimulants' hid this bands beauty from thee...
My second favourite Canadian band...Arcade Fire is always number one..but Metric is number two :)
It was love at first listen for me 10 years ago, wow. Still gives me shivers. Ooo. Like my entire body tingles listening to this song. Nothing else like it for me
This song just never leaves you
I was listening to this song in the workshop and I picked up a hammer and "played" along with it on an anvil. Now I can't hear it without the sound of a hammer and an anvil in the back of my mind. A great and timeless song.
Dying light 2.....
I'm trying really hard to watch the whole video, but these weird videos with overplayed old pictures from 30's medical documentaries scare the shit out of me.
It's a very specific fear.
+viva9626 I get that dude. Not this specific fear but phobias like it. Hang in there.
I concur.
it's a becoming to common a theme in indie music.
I'm actually really scared by this weird white beating heart animation that duplicates into 3, and it kinda ruined the song for me cause I think of this everytime I listen to it ;_;
i love this song! i've been playing it on my show every week since like april. and today i heard it on the actual radio! i'm so happy. i love metric!!!
Have you heard it on the radio lately 14 years later 😂?
Metric...songs of my life for at least 6 years now...all round super duper.
There's more hooks in this song than in a fishing tackle box!
Creative stuff by this group all the time. Turn volume up and
begin to smile.
11 years ago this song saved my life. Now its hard to listen too, but i do it anyway
R.I.P mia
this song was my gateway drug for all the awesomeness that is metric.
They've been along all these years...new love keep em going
Gotta love the way she says alive!
I am literally SO obsessed with this song. I love it soo much!
Dang dooood, 12 years... 😎
Great video,superb band and an incredible song.Emily sounding wonderful as always!!Thanks for sharing this unforgettable video!!
This kinda reminds me of the Breeders and a little bit of the Pixies. I'm a gonna check out more of this band.
You won't regret it :3
+Arthur Frentzel Exactly what I thought. Breeders / Veruca Salt / Portishead... Metric definitely recaptures the 90's chick band sound and I've been in love since I started exploring their music.
Radicool lavierfx
maybe a lil flyleaf too?
Cool
In december 2012 i had a brain surgery and i watched this video over and over in the icu post surgery. I kinda hoped i died. Thank the metricx for this music and video.
A decade now. Their music doesn't age
I don't understand why people complain about a song being on a show or movie... dude, you should be happy that it was on that show or movie, they're promoting this awesome song!
I miss the 2000s!
Nostalgic asf. i love it
This song is such a beatiful breathtaking journey!
Just an absolute joy to listen to this band. The acoustic versions are also exceptional
My favorite find since Cocteau Twins 30 years ago!
Well, let’s put Hooverphonic in the mix, almost forgot about that brilliance!
Is anyone listening to this because of dying light 2?
Actually from vampire diaries lol
my heart beats like a hammer when I hear this song.
I have read some of the reviews. Thank you all for sharing. This was the 1st song I heard from Metric and loved it immediately. During the climax of the Vampire Academy's 4th book, "Blood Promise," when Rose throws herself out of a window to escape from her love, Dimitri, that is trying to convert her into a Strigoi (the baddy vampires), this scene fits perfectly with the intro of the song. As the song plays on, the lyrics, "if I stumble, you're gonna eat me alive," could've been playing through Rose's mind as she is limping away into a maze, running for her life. This is one of many amazing scenes in this fantastic book from a wonderful series. This is what I now think of when I hear this song. Thank you for reading 😽
Came here after watching Dying Light 2's trailer... so good
esta es una chingoneria de cancion
la escucho y casi me vengo de la emocion!
I really can't listen to this song only once..I have to play it at least 5 times..Call it obsession :)
This band is something special.
This is one of the most awesome music video's I've seen. GREAT work!
This song definitely speaks to my panic disorder.
such a simple sound, but so addictive
Thanks for talking with us after your show in Minneapolis a couple years ago. We talked about guitars. Nice folks you are.
Typing Metric into the TH-cam search brought me here.
had a dream with this song in the background playing. had to listen this morning Fri August 26 8:00am
replay... replay... replay... again... again... again... can't get enough... love this song =D
I love the riff right before she says "If you're still alive." Reminds me so much of the epicness of the 90s. Band of Susans or the Toadies.
2018 and still listening
2019 ;-)
2020 8=D
2021
knew about this group yesterday, and jeez they're cool
This has to be one of my favorite videos of all time, and one of my favorite songs
I just saw the awesomeness that is the "Defendor" and this equally awesome song is at the end of the movie.
i absolutely love this song!! how can u not?
This would be perfect for a scene in a zombie film/show about someone running for her life. I heart it.
I originally found this song because it was in an opening sequence of The Vampire Diaries when a couple camping in in a tent get attacked =)
had this song on repeat for like 4 hours playing dead island so after that lab experiment .i would have to concur :)
Piss on zombies
Dying light trailer
I found this from dying light 2, an upcoming zombie game :)
I will never get tired of this song!
It takes so much to make it big. I would so love to see Metric get to where they deserve to be!
So how about a awesome celebration for "The Death of Covid " with a huge Stadium Concert? I want Metric, Silver Sun Pick Ups, Counting Crows, Live...ummm sorry my head exploded lol
still love this song in 2019
Defendor!
fun fact: the United Nations security council once used the United Nations space command logo by accident at a convention.
this is my favorite video of all time
Great band! They would fit right in to any era of music.
I love this song, it's just so harmonic, idk it makes me feel good! :D
WHERES MY DYING LIGHT CREW AT!!!!!
I cant believe this is 3 years old ! I like it !
Awesome song! Reminds me of the good old 90's!
Do you guys comprehend the lyrics or just listen to them?
This song is about keeping separated dog heads alive, they discovered how to keep a dogs head alive without its body... just pumping reoxygenated blood into the head of it. The picture they show in the beginning describes what I'm talking about perfectly. And this does remind me of NBA2k10 I loved that game.
I'm . . . pretty sure you're confusing the figurative meaning of the lyrics for a literal one.
(On the other hand, one never knows about these things. Hmm. I think I'll go pet my dog head and ponder that for awhile. If it licks my hand I might even be nice and top off its nutrient fluid.)
I think it's more about stage fright.
I don't think it's entirely about the dog head. I was definitely disturbed when I first saw the Russian dog experiment though. Check it out it's definitely something else..
Good song but this video made it freaking awesome love the message
The song itself is wildly brilliant and unique but the production aspects are outrageously cool. The entire crew involved in this recording killed this shit
Wow! That's a very good song for jogging outdoors , thanks!🐂🐴🐆🐗
I love this song!
No words...💥🥰
This is one of my favourite Metric songs
when I listen to this song, smoke a bong, and close my eye's this is EXACTLY what I see!
Who's watching in January 2016??
✋
Very affirming song to me, I keep coming back to it
April
+waltcms me 2
July 1016 :D
Dying Light 2 brought me here
i like how more respectful his viewers are (me being one as well), they dont just say "beef sent me here!" like a tool-shed. And you explained who he is, so we dont have the usual clash of "who is Beef?!"
The perfect theme song for "Miss Representation".
Great normal listening as well.
Ahhhhh nba 2k10 memories i use to play this son non stop
Dying Light 2 bring me here 😜
I am literally obsessed with this bands energetic style!
I absolutely love this song on Miss Representation, it's perfect for it.
Vine por Dying Light 2 🥴, agradecido con el de arriba por las buenas rolitas.
I heard this song for dying light 2
my favourite band... and this song is great with sick muse!!!
