Amazing Glow Lyrics
A rare and wicked skill to change the light or weather
No room was spared No mood shown her mercy
I was a tireless fool I thought I could do better
I left in flames: a paper shade hanging from a light
And when it came to the wrecking ball:
she swung it effortlessly like it had no weight at all
And when it came to her victories:
The genus names of all the flowers that were feeding off her
amazing glow
I changed my master plan I changed my friends and city
I go to sleep I still wake up screaming
A dream so full and real, you'd think I would know better
I try to stave off a new day from rising.
And when it came to the wrecking ball: she swung it effortlessly like it had no weight at all
And when it came to her victories: the genus names of all the flowers that were feeding off her
amazing glow.
No room was spared No mood shown her mercy
I was a tireless fool I thought I could do better
I left in flames: a paper shade hanging from a light
she swung it effortlessly like it had no weight at all
And when it came to her victories:
The genus names of all the flowers that were feeding off her
amazing glow
I go to sleep I still wake up screaming
A dream so full and real, you'd think I would know better
I try to stave off a new day from rising.
And when it came to her victories: the genus names of all the flowers that were feeding off her
amazing glow.

Weakest Shade Of Blue
Baby In Two
Overcome By Happiness
This is actually my wife's favorite song by Pernice--she's taken it from the other direction, as she left an abusive ex to start a better life with someone else (me of course!) and with no regrets. True story: when we heard him play it in concert, he was looking at her the whole time. I think he knew she thought the song was about someone like her!
I think it's about a guy who feels tormented because he broke up with his ex, who seems unaffected and found someone else.
"And when it came to the wrecking ball: she swung it effortlessly like it had no weight at all" I have been there and I know how it feels.
