Nine Sides (Twin Eclipse Version) Lyrics

Tiny faded crisscross but not on my own say

And I'm pouring my guts into my own brain

Cuz that's my realest friend these days

And it feels more than I could make space for in this saturated fate

I'm looking at the night sky and the moons staring back at me

His synchronizing phases with the tide

Had me believing that our soul shared a flame

But then I saw his face hiding in the clouds

Covering up your horizon you'd bury me in everyday

I wish there was a way to unroll these snake eyes with nine sides

I juggle in my pocket while you keep me locked in

Threaded eye sockets

I already see through every stitch you knitted in your kitchen

With lies on top for accent

It's a pretty touch but it's not enough to make a difference

All your facets keep knifing out like ragged tactics

Ornamented in a clever message

But I'm ahead of it now I expect it

A dream in a dream

Where you hid away your key

And the mirror's telling you more

Than it's telling me

There's a decaying contract

In a church full of mouse traps

With windows eating every hue

The skyline needs

Superstition compass pointing out all the stages

You're craving an encore from a grave

Testing how much it'll take to rehearse a soul with a new clock

Lying to yourself that it's the same

Pages ripped out and revised while you try to control time

And twist the fate then scribble out your name

You're only living for a game of cards

The king of hearts

A hare that knew it from the start

With pride on his face watching the ouroboros snake

The endless race

Fourth at the gate

You always find a way

To vandalize the finish line

It blows my mind

The way it took this long

For me to realize the person

Underneath everything you fabricated

Was a stranger

A dream in a dream

Where you hid away your key

And the mirror's telling you more

Than it's telling me

There's a decaying contract

In a church full of mouse traps

With windows eating every hue

The skyline needs

The way it took this long

For me to realize the person

Underneath everything you fabricated

Was a stranger
