lyrics

I was somebody else when I woke up in your bed this morning
Staring through your mirror into infinitely empty space
I thought I saw your body standing just outside my window
It looked in my direction with a somewhat familiar face
All of the beds were turning upside down
Gold pastels and the awaking sound
But there was no one there
There was nothing there

I couldn’t move my hands when I felt it coming back around me
An amnesiatic breeze was blowing all around my head
Falling through the ceiling, running through the empty forest
Black inside of black inside of black inside of everything
A luminiferous aether on the ground
Outside in was turning inside out
Breathing the slowing air
The slowing air

I was somebody else when I woke up in your bed this morning
Staring through your mirror into infinitely empty space
I thought I saw your body standing in the closet window
It looked in my direction with a somewhat familiar face
All of the beds were turning upside down
Gold pastels and the awaking sound
But there was no one there
There was nothing there.
