Senses Fail - Chandelier Lyrics






This head is haunted by a chorus in the sky
The voices aren't mine
I kiss the darkness as I see the whites of their eyes
They're crawling up my spine
They bloom at midnight in the middle of the moonlight

Strike a match!
Light the chandelier!
This bedroom is a ballroom now
Strike the band and make the dead dance
This room is filled with corpses in costumes

My guests dress in black and blue
I raise a toast to the few
The orchids are in bloom
There's a dead note in the choir of the garden
The sun will kiss the gloom
The warden's giving pardons soon

Strike a match!
Light the chandelier!
This bedroom is a ballroom now
Strike the band and make the dead dance
This room is filled with corpses in costumes
Strike the band and make the dead dance
(I kiss the darkness as I see the whites of their eyes)
Strike the band and dance, dance.

"This is your last night.
Do you believe in what you write?
We open the sky and we hope you see light."

Strike a match!
Light the chandelier!
This bedroom is a ballroom now
Strike the band and make the dead dance
This room is filled with corpses in costumes
Strike the band and make the dead dance
(I kiss the darkness as I see the whites of their eyes)
Strike the band and dance, dance
(This room is filled with corpses in costumes)

    Amazing song, amazing band.

  41. p.... ....

    hi im with the paranoia ghost hunters
    me and my team really love this song
    it kind of matches the theme

  42. a.... ....

    this song makes me feel like i'm in a haunted hotel, celebrating a party with ghosts.

  43. n.... c....

    senses fail is post-hardcore........... definitly not alternative

  44. l.... ....

    @afiqueen6 far from hardcore. This is like pop/punk alternative

  45. a.... w....

    saosinization22 this band isn't punk, there far from it. there more hardcore

  46. N.... S....

    this song makes me think of some sick version of a foxtrot lol i love senses fail!

  47. J.... M....

    srry for the typo's..eek thats alot! 0.0

  48. J.... M....

    I really don't groupbands like this into specific genres and stuff because they have a lot of differant types messhed together to make it.... sort of like Hollywood Undead, or Linkin Park. They are thier own genre to an extent..and furthermore saying that they are or arn't "emo" will just start some other random controversie with some emo kid that thinks "Emo is a way of life" or something to that effect. *shrugs* Who cares, just listen and ROCK OUT! \^^/

  49. L.... ....

    I have to agree, me likey dis song

  50. k.... ....

    senses fail will live forever

  51. S.... G....

    LOVE THIS SONG!!!

  52. S.... G....

    ik!!! Me too i always think that=D

  53. A.... H....

    yes my friend...ITS SOOOO EPIC!!!!!!!!!...thats why this is one of my fav songs from them ^^ and any other bands ^^

  54. A.... H....

    Im with you ^^

  55. J.... ....

    dang u guys took all the good ones lol

    never realized senses fail had that many songs

  56. T.... W....

    I prefer their older stuff but these is still good.

    The old stuff is just so passionate and full of raw emotion where as this stuff feels a lil more commercial..A natural transition for a band but sadly it takes away their edge.

  57. L.... P....

    Gasmask somewhat looks like them.

  58. s.... s....

    wat about them??

  59. C.... ....

    :D HAHA! I have the cd. =^-^= This one of my favorite songs off of "Life is not a waiting room"

  60. O.... ....

    good...
