Pendulum ride Lyrics

Sit close, just not too close to touch

Converse, just don't get attached

"Is your heart beating fast now?" You

Were teasing my visible frown

What malady drove me to this insanity?

But then again, I once thought you were my remedy

And when the engine fired up and went ballistic, I

Fake-smiled at you, praying my screams won't leak

As we rose up to the sky, I remembered how it began

A simple 'hi,' a simple joke, a simple match

A quick kiss in a museum

Upholding all feelings presumed

Tangled friendships from both sides

I admired yours, you hated mine

Flashbacks of the drive to your mother

And how nervous I was to meet her

And when the seats swung down, All I saw was the collapse

The first cracks I ignored

And the blood war I weakly fought

When I saw the inevitable fall, I could only search for you

In the end of it all, I stood in the ruins of you

And it haunted me for a whole fucking year

An iron armor was born out of my caustic tears

I vowed to never meet you again

But tonight, I saw all my rules bend

Because here I was, Holding tight to your arm

Screaming at the top of my lungs

Blood rushing to my cheeks as the loud winds hit

It was that familiar rush before the slowdown

The inescapable storm before the standdown

I wondered if you knew how badly I wanted

To turn things around that very last night

It took you a whole year to reappear

In an old 7-Eleven in your city

Walked me to the very street you first met me

Past a carousel bleak and not moving

Closures sure make you breathe

But you should have seen how I lived

Through that fucking year

Oh, what a fucked-up year

Here we are, Looking in void through each other

As the ride finally stops

Maybe we both knew there wasn't a forever

For the two of us
