Pendulum

The vampires come at four in the morning Out for blood with their spotlight on me I think about dying but it sounds too lonely And I think about you in a lucid dream Do your best to go out in your sleep Beg for compassion while some preacher calls you dangerous But you love who you love I melt when you walk in the room And we want what we want But we can't sort it out Everything in its place My sentimental heartache Wait for that pendulum to go But I know what they say when I walk in the light There's no joy in my life There's no joy when I'm right I know what they say when I walk in the light There's no joy My mind starts to glitch at the same time each day Find me passed out on the parquet I'm changing in a visceral way Hold onto your hand as the waves start to rise Think about how our father's tried And tried and tried and tried To give us a better life It's so hard to love When you're dying in an empty room We won't get what we want Cause we can't sort it out Everything in its place My sentimental heartache Waiting for the sun to explode But I know what they say when I walk in the light There's no joy in my life There's no joy when I'm right I know what they say when I walk in the light There's no joy It's so hard to love I melt when you walk in the room We might get what we want But what good will that do? Everything in its place My sentimental heartache Waiting for the sun to explode Still waiting for that pendulum to go But I know what they say when I walk in the light There's no joy in my life There's no joy when I'm right I know what they say when I walk in the light There's no joy
