Lyrics The Pendulum - Candlemass

The Pendulum

Centuries of sleep, the spear of God is still
Waiting for you love and your will
The pendulum divine, weapon of cosmic kind
A hammer that will hit you from behind
Oh, the pendulum, it turns
It twists and churns, it burns
Oh, the pendulum will fly
It’s black and white, it’s blind
Oh, the pendulum is mine
The balance that you are, omen from the stars
The secrets that you hold will be told
Continents, they sink, the crowning of a king
The pendulum’s the nave of everything
Oh, the pendulum, it turns
It twists and churns, it burns
Oh, the pendulum will fly
It’s black and white, it’s blind
Oh, the pendulum is mine
Asylum, sweet home, chained and alone
But soon the walls will crack stone by stone
Fever in my brain, vengeance from the void
I give to you the power to destroy
Oh, the pendulum, it turns
It twists and churns, it burns
Oh, the pendulum will fly
It’s black and white, it’s blind
Oh, the pendulum will swing
Free from sin, sing
Oh, the pendulum is true
It moves and grooves, it soothes
Oh, the pendulum’s for fools
