Pa**ion Pit - Eyes as Candles lyrics

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 Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey 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 Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey Oh, na na na na na na, 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 Oh, na na na na na na, hey hey hey (in background until end) I've painted your patterns but found them attractive Now I've been leaning toward a life far more candid Though lead through the dark with your eyes as my candles Where you're 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
