Eyes As Candles - Passion Pit
My world astir and sickly
Spits out our voices singing
Tra la la la on high now
To kingdom come so slightly
Herein a void in your place
I twitch and tweak in allusion
To sit and stare so blankly
Until all hope is used up
Why do I always need to
need you when
you're fleeting
Where do you go
when I'm around
What have I done
what have I lost that's
so defeating
And have the nerve
to wear a crown
Oh na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
In some dark room
A smoky figure fills me full
Makes my head swell in ruin
My family kneels at their pew
They nod We believe in
What you're doing
I feel it rise above me
The western
landscapes towering
And from my shell of a body
The flowers blossom
for picking
Why do I always need to
need you when
you're fleeting
Where do you go
when I'm around
What have I done
what have I lost that's
so defeating
And have the nerve
to wear a crown
Oh na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
na na na na na na
Hey hey hey hey
I've waited and waited
For someone to take it
Don't fight it don't bother
An inch for another
Don't listen
Don't hear them
They're in this together
I've learned well
Now hear me
There's much to be fearing
I'm used to your absence
Your faceless distractions
I've painted your patterns
But found them attractive
Now I've been
leaning towards
A life far more candid
Though lead
through the dark
With your eyes
as my candles
Where your life
And my life's directions
Can wrangle
And all of a sudden
You've left me to handle
The reasons that never
Forbid me to stand tall
And somehow or somewhere
I found out the secret
To staying alive
Without actually breathing
