The vampires come at four in the morning,
out for blood with
their spotlight on me.
Think about dying but it sounds too
lonely.
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.
A mell when you walk in the room.
And we want what we want.
We can't sort it out.
Everything in its place.
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 fathers 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 because we can't sort it out.
Everything in its place.
A 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 know when you walk in the room.
We might get what we want,
but what good will that do?
Everything in its place.
A sentimental heartache.
Waiting for the sun to explode.
So
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.
