When it rains it really pours
but I can’t let myself get wet any more
Through my window I see you laugh and play
so I fog up the glass to leave a note that says:

Break me out of my room
Take me to someplace new

Time turns into a metaphor when
you stay inside time and time again
I can’t break break these walls and keep my problems in
but all my flaws will be naked then
You hold my hand and promise to be my friend
so I hold my breath as I let you in

These walls have got to go right now
These walls can’t hold me down

Break me out of my room
Take me to someplace new

Break me out of my room
Break me out of these walls

I must be the enemy because I speak my thoughts
and they’re different, yeah they’re different

But all the things you say I am, that’s what I’m not
And all the things you take away, that’s all that I’ve got
We’re all attaching pieces of someone else; replacing older parts
and copy cats are everywhere you go, there you are

I am me, doppelganger
I am me: doppelganger
Doppelganger, whoa!
I’m a doppelganger

They’re just like you, you’re just like me
Bare skin, identity… So utterly unique
Every puzzle is missing a different piece
Broken patterns carry on to infinity yeah

All the things you say I am, that’s what I’m not
And all the things you take away, that’s all that I’ve got
We’re all attaching pieces of someone else; replacing older parts
and copy cats are everywhere you go, there you are

I am me, doppelganger
I am me: doppelganger
Doppelganger, whoa!
I’m a doppelganger

You and I are the only new things under the sun
Under the sun

You wanted the perfect life
Illusions of grandiose fairytales
But you found the loose ends fraying
Ignorant to the beauty in the fails

Trust in the process of life
Forgive your past, you are free
To change and transform
Would you be willing to let it all go?

Everything that is
Would you be willing to destroy and uncreate?
Everything that is
Would you be willing to destroy and uncreate?

Let go of your pain
Transform and regain
Everything that is
Would you be willing to destroy and uncreate?

Way out in space, we can transform
Way out in space, we can be so much more

Let go of your pain
Transform and regain
Everything that is
Would you be willing to destroy and uncreate?

You wanted a perfect life
Illusions of grandiose fairytales
But you found the loose ends fraying
Ignorant to the beauty in the fails

Once before I missed the chance to say goodbye

I thought you knew how much you mean to me, to me…
I was wrong
I thought that I could heal your cold blue aura
I was wrong

But this is just a minor illusion
These eyes can’t contain the pain
Like an argument with the universe
I’m screaming at the empty space

Phantoms will listen my prayer
Phantoms dance silent through the air
Phantoms will drown in my prayer

I know you’re watching for
I you’re waiting here I fall

Salt line circle mirror
Reflecting reflecting phantom light
Poison slows these tears
Just one more just one more touch
and I’ll be fine

But this is just a minor illusion
These eyes can’t contain the pain
Like an argument with the universe
I’m screaming at the empty space

Phantoms will listen my prayer
Phantoms dance silent through the air
Phantoms will drown in my prayer

I know you’re watching for
I you’re waiting here I fall

But then the coldness sets in

Sing me a love song as we freefall together
We’ll land on their heads and call the whole thing off
You can leave me speechless like those left over feathers
I’ll be a candle if you just be a moth

Heavy clouds
Bonzai bombshell baby
Touching ground
Bonzai bombshell baby

Sing me a love song like bombs falling down
We’ll land in pieces cause nobody likes this town
I’ll leave the speeches with the broken hearted wreckage
You can light a candle for the alarm that never sounds

Heavy clouds
Bonzai bombshell baby
Touching ground
Overreacting to an accidental nudge

You’re a bombshell baby and we’re lost in a haze
I feel the fog of war as we reach the next phase
You’re a bombshell baby with a license to kill
You turn an everyday thing into a mine field

Heavy clouds
Bonzai bombshell baby
Touching ground
The fuse is sparked and I’ll never be a dud

Heavy clouds
Bonzai bombshell baby
Touching ground
Laser guided llamas leaving craters on our love

Heavy clouds touching ground
Bonzai!

Tiny wolves chasing us from every direction
Keep it moving keep it moving lest they make a detection
No we don’t want it, we don’t need it!
Random packs on the hunt for a meaningful question
Frienemies smell like sheep upon further inspection
No you can’t prove it, I can’t deny it!

And it always feels like
They’re breathing breathing down my back, I feel it
In the dark of night
They’re speaking of biting off my head, I hear them
And it’s not alright!
I’m really freaking out!
They’re breathing breathing down my back, I feel it
In the dark of night
I’m really freaking out!

Wild dogs panting hard on the trail of perfection
Bloody paws just a part of their distant intention
No we don’t mean it, they don’t bleed it
Mini coyotes point their noses at their lunar reflection
Howling out gives their tongues a silver protection
No we don’t show it, I can’t deny it!

And it always feels like
They’re breathing breathing down my back, I feel it
In the dark of night
They’re speaking of biting off my head, I hear them
And it’s not alright!
I’m really freaking out!
They’re breathing breathing down my back, I feel it
In the dark of night
I’m really freaking out!

These tiny wolves are chasing us from every direction!

Cats will drive a hearse to avoid the pain of funerals
They have it the worst with 8 extra burials
Sometimes love hurts
and things get way too formal
Let’s do weird first
and go back to normal

I’ve died a thousand times in your eyes
But you find a trillion ways to revive
Sometimes love hurts
and things get way too formal
Let’s do weird first and go back to normal
Back to normal
Normal
Go back to normal

And I’ll carry the burden of all the tears you’ve shed
We’ll hang in the balance of emotions blue and red
I want to feel the feelings we felt for the first time
I want my blood to burn like excess in the moonlight
We’ll do weird first and go back to normal
Do weird first and go back to normal

Sometimes love hurts
and things get way too formal
Let’s do weird first
and go back to normal
Let’s do weird first
and then we’ll go back to normal…

Am I in shock or do I rage? Is this a terror phase?

Stepping out of the shell of my former self; I’m a new man! Yeah a new man
Chasing coattails red; I’m a new man! Brand spankin’ new man
Never been here and I’ve never been there; I’m a new man! So confused man
Why do I see this other me? A bruised man! Bloody and used man
Who am I and who are you? New man! Time to choose man

…And he says:
“I… know! Where I am & I… know! who you are, but that doesn’t help me much”

Am I in shock or do I rage? Is this a terror phase?

Stepping out of the shell of my former self; I’m a new man! Yeah a new man
All on my own in a maddening zone; I’m a new man! Brand spankin’ new man
The other one stares without taking in air; I’m a new man! So confused man
No movement no noise, nor does he breathe! A bruised man! Bloody and used man
Who am I and who were you? New man! Time to choose man

…And he says:
“I… know! Where I am & I… know! who you are, but that doesn’t help me much”

I saw myself die! I saw myself die! I saw myself die! I saw myself die!

And so it began…

Once more I find myself in a battle of wits against myself
That outside world beckons the hunger within this self
Primordium vehemently encroaches, this body is not myself
The birthrights of complex eternities vex and lose themselves

Radiant transparency still as waves; sitting atop itself
Effortlessly crashing against resistance of another self
The unmovable object / unstoppable force; two sides of one self
Limited infinity contemplates the paradox of life itself but

I am not the body
I’m not even the mind
I am not the body
I’m not even the mind

Oum. Oum. Oum.

I am not the body
I’m not even the mind

Your mistakes won’t pay my fare,
On this guide less path through nowhere
I’m standing on the edge of white stairs,
This is the end

(shhh…. just breathe, alright …trust needs light)

There’s no silver silhouette in this soul’s night
There’s too much evil in dark cloudy skies
But quiet storms won’t make things right
Let’s split the heavens and let there be light

You’ve outsourced your own soul,
now these games start to unfold.
My will is to make it beautiful,
so it’s said so shall it be.

There’s no silver silhouette in this soul’s night
There’s too much evil in dark cloudy skies
But quiet storms won’t make things right
Let’s split the heavens and let there be light

Falling stars bursting with life, the trees point their blame at the skies
All is more than a fragmented sum but time is divided by moon and by sun
