[Verse 1]

Look me in the eye before you say this

I don't want to have any regrets

I always run away from my emotions

But I don't think it's caught up to me yet

I know pacifism is a lifestyle

But I can't help but get into a fight

Don't tell me that my cause is always righteous

Cause I don't know what's really wrong or right

Staring at the public bathroom mirror

Bruises on my knuckles and my cheeks

Stopping by the store right on the corner

People looking at me like a freak

Look me in the eye before you say this

Cause I know I'll have too many rеgrets

I'm looking at the timer on my cеllphone

My time is ticking down for all my debts


[Chorus]

Pendulum, pendulum, stay in motion

Nothing can, nothing can sway emotion

All we can do is just take it slow

Keep going, keep going

Navigate, navigate through the clockwork

Fabricate, fabricate, few are constant

All we can do is keep moving on

Keep going, keep going


[Verse 2]

Well, I don’t think I’m making any progress

But I know that I don’t wanna go back

They say I should put trust into the process

You’d think they’d know that I already know that

The blood’s already dripping from my forehead

It’s mixing with the sweat and the saliva

I never thought I could get any more dead

I guess I won’t be needing that revival

Can you look me in the eye before you say this

Cause I don’t wanna see you look away from me

The innocence that people took away from me

I know that you had always stood away from me

Just tell me that I’m losing someone else already

Tell me that you need someone reliable instead

I’ve always picked up all the pieces, you can really go ahead

I already know so maybe it’s just better off unsaid


[Chorus]

Pendulum, pendulum, stay in motion

Nothing can, nothing can sway emotion

All we can do is just take it slow

Keep going, keep going

Navigate, navigate through the clockwork

Fabricate, fabricate, few are constant

All we can do is keep moving on

Keep going, keep going
