We Are Scientists - Pandemonium Lyrics

You can't keep sifting through the pieces
For whatever you think might be left
It seems so obvious to me
But somehow you still haven't seen it yet

But I'm just waiting for the coming detonation

You should be thinking about your last words
Because this could be one for the textbooks
Pandemonium's an understatement
I didn't need this kind of action
Here in the middle of the blast zone
Pandemonium's an understatement

I'm just left wondering what it might take
To finally get you to stop
I'm taking comfort in anticipation
Knowing that this bomb will drop

So I'm still waiting for the coming detonation

I really wish you could be talked down
Let's take whatever time we've got, now
We shouldn't waste our breath on something
If it's not worth saving
I should be used to being called out
It's just a little bit of fallout
If we're both standing in the aftermath
Then, I can take it
