Hall Of Mirrors

(album: Two Ribbons - 2022)

Take me all around the world and then
Show me a picture of myself
I didn't see, any way to know me better
But baby I've found this door

The light streams
I've stepped into a movie scene
Where my secrets
Are written on the bathroom walls
It dropped clean
Like a penny in a slot machine:
I know that I want this, so

Raining down
Raining down
Sat on the overground
I'm cold to the bone
In this lonely town
Somebody tell me how
I'm gonna work this out

And I thought of you
And there wasn't a girl that had made me shy until I talked to you
Somewhere in the night with a spell in your eyes
And it was all about you
The moment in time when our shadows collided and I told the truth
You linked through my fingers
And followed me into the hall of mirrors

And now and then I'll be running round the bend
Signed live this fucking life
Shut your eyes
Then I'll dig myself a trench
Thorns at my bedside
Writing letters that are riddled with regret

I said I know I know I know I know your heart is locked
And this can only be inside the dream that I've been making up

But I thought of you
And there wasn't a girl that had made me shy until I talked to you
Somewhere in the night with a spell in your eyes
And it was all about you
The moment in time when our shadows collided and I told the truth
You linked through my fingers
And followed me into the hall of mirrors

Raining down
Raining down
I'm in the boarding lounge
Bored of this weather
And facing clouds
Somebody tell me how
I'm gonna work this out

Slow down where do you wanna go now you're on my mind
Slow down where do you wanna go now you're on my mind

And I thought of you
And there wasn't a girl that had made me shy until I talked to you
Somewhere in the night with a spell in your eyes
And it was all about you
(The moment in time) The moment in time when our shadows collided and I told the truth
(Moment in time)
You linked through my fingers
And followed me into the hall of mirrors
