Metaphors - Lyrics - San Cisco

San Cisco are an Australian indie pop band that formed in 2009 under the original name of King George, in Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia. The band are a four-piece, and consists of Jordi Davieson , Josh Biondillo , Nick Gardner and Scarlett Stevens âall members, except Stevens, share duties on keyboards. In November 2011, the band was signed by Albert Productions, but moved to Fat Possum Records for the release of its debut album. In October 2012, the band described its 'vibe' as "squelchy, crispy, streamlined, hairy, indie". At the ARIA Music Awards of 2013 the group were nominated for Best Independent Release and Best Dance Release for the album; and Best Video for "Fred Astaire", which was directed by Andrew Nowrojee.

I'll be waiting out here Waiting at your door If you want it I could try and get you just a little little more I'll break a promise That I made to you yesterday I'll never hide from you Or never gonna run run away I wrote a letter when I met her And tore out the page I threw it in a box and Hid it somewhere far far away You tell me secrets And you tell me that you want some more It's not up to me To help you settle settle scores I could take you out in the afternoon Dodge the sharks as we swim to the pontoon I know it's a metaphor I know we are still on shore Light a fire in our lifeboat Just to keep warm but we won't stay afloat I know it's a metaphor I know we are still on shore
