Pendulum - Modern Life Is War

How did it feel to twice become a saint?

How did it feel to twice be burned at the stake?

Did you fly too high like icarus?

Did you run to fast?

Did you give too much love to a world that would never understand?

We are the flowers that grew from the sod

How dreary to be somebody

I too, have no country

And I know how it feels

If you were shining down on me, I wouldn’t kneel

I would stand upright the way you did

All your life and everything you dreamed of, so short the kiss

Forever on the silver screen

Forever in our hearts

Forever in these humble streets

Forever like you were in the start

Dancing in your stockings to your 45's

Forever Innocent.

Too full: your heart.

Too wide: your eyes

In strange places.

In the company of strange men

And you said goodbye.

And I understand
