Can't know what's high
Til you been down so low
The future's bright
Lit up with no where to go
To and fro the pendulum throws
We are here and then we go
My shadow left me long ago
Understand what we don't know
This might pass, this might last, this may grow
Easy come and easy go
Easy left me a long time ago
I'm in the fire, but I'm still cold
Nothing works, works for me anymore
To and fro the pendulum throws
To and fro the pendulum throws
To and fro
To and fro

This is stunning. Atmospheric opener or encore opener. This is what I've been wanting.

i like this song a lot, but the reverb/vocal effect when Ed sings the line "easy come and easy go, easy left me long time agooooooo" made me actually cringe and laugh out loud

Yeah this is a good song. I was led to believe the rhythm was more strange than it is, but ah well.

I'm liking this one a lot. Moody, sparse, yet very melodic. Exactly what I was looking for.

I can see how this didn't fit in Backspacer. Love it.

Yup.
This and Getaway might be the only two songs I'll still be listening to, a month from now. Maybe Swallowed Whole.

Not an amazing composition, but a nice addition to the stable of slow openers, if they go that way, which they should.
Is the line "To and fro / the pendulum throws"? That makes no sense. Pendulums swing.

the lyrics/vocal melody on this aren't that amazing, but musically it's probably their best/most interesting song since 'Binaural'
