Phantogram - Memory of a Day Album Lyrics

Hey
What did I do to deserve this pain?
I could wait here all my life
Or just walk away
Down on my knees every night
Waiting for you to decide
Hey
What did I do to deserve this pain?

'Cause it's all a mystery in my head, Lord
I'd give up everything just to feel the fire again
It's all a mystery in my head, Lord
I'd give up anything just to feed the river again
And again

Hey
What can I do
Get back to that place?
Erase the tapes in my mind
Throw them all away
Turn back the tables of time
Let all those memories die
Hey
What do I do
Get back to that place?

'Cause it's all a mystery in my head, Lord
I'd give up everything just to feel the fire again
It's all a mystery in my head, Lord
I'd give up anything just to feed the river again
Again and again and again and again and again and again

Midnight in a crowded room
Dancing in a blur
Hummingbirds and helicopter blades all spinning
Nobody to watch me
Nobody but me now
Loneliness is physical
Perception isn't free
Happiness is still a smoking gun
If you want it, you got it
You want it, you'll get it when you get down

When my days are only numbers
And my nights are china blue
On my own, I guess I'll dance until there's nothing left
'Cause it's all I wanna do
I come alive

I come alive

Breaks the frozen sea below
Tomorrow never knows
(Yeah)
Invisible, I'm dancing all alone and no-one goes
Nobody, nobody
Nobody but me now

When my days are only numbers
And my nights are china blue
On my own, I guess I'll dance until there's nothing left
'Cause it's all I wanna do
I come alive

Days are only numbers
Nights are china blue

When my days are only numbers
(Nobody but me now)
And my nights are china blue
(Nobody but me now)
On my own again, I'll dance until there's nothing left
'Cause it's all I wanna do
I come alive

I'll dance until there's nothing left
I come alive
I'll dance until there's nothing left
I'll dance until I come alive

Hey, I saw you turn the other way
I know exactly what it feels like
We're turning inside
My eyes are red
Another tear and I'll be dead
Another lonely winter sundown
Just wanna shut down

It's easy to walk asleep in the daylight
I can't believe this is life
I can't believe this is my life

Another year gone by
I couldn't wait for the end
Looking for the day when I
I can be happy again
Another year gone by
I couldn't wait for the end
Looking for the day when I
I can be happy again

Hey, I hope you win the lottery
You can't handle what it feels like
Drownin' inside
Stuck in your head
I can't remember what you said
Another empty summer sunset
Feeling homesick

It's easy to walk asleep in the daylight
Can you believe this is life?
Can you believe this is your life?

Another year gone by
I couldn't wait for the end
Looking for the day when I
I can be happy again
Another year gone by
I couldn't wait for the end
Looking for the day when I
I can be happy again

Don't you know I need you?
Don't you know I need you?
Wish that I could see you one more time

Another year gone by
I couldn't wait for the end
Looking for the day when I
I can be happy again
Another year gone by
I couldn't wait for the end
Looking for the day when I
I can be happy again

I can be happy again
I can be happy again
I can be happy again
I can be happy again
