Passion Pit - Eyes As Candles Lyrics

My world is stirring sickly
Spits out our voices singing
"Sha la la, oh, no no"
To kingdom come so slightly
Here in the void in your place
I twitch and tweak illusions
To sit and stare so blankly
Into our

Why do I always need to need you when you're fleeing?
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 the crown

Oh
Na na na na na na, hey hey
Na na na na na na, hey hey
Na na na na na na, hey hey
Na na na na na na, hey hey

Suddenly across the room
A smoky figure fills me full
Makes my head swell and move
My family kneels at the pew
They do not really believe in what you're doing
I feel you rise above me
The western landscape's towering
And from my shell of a body

Why do I always need to need you when you're fleeing?
Where do you go when I'm around?
What have I done, what have I got that's so defeating?
And have the nerve to wear the crown

Oh
Na na na na na na, hey hey
Na na na na na na, hey hey
Na na na na na na, hey hey
Na na na na na na, 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 won't run, now hear me, there's much to be fearing
I'm used to your absence, your faceless distraction
