Inside out

Bang bang
The gun rang in my head again
The light it shines
Nobody sees it
Are birds circling over my head yet?
Their bitter pattern
It draws my halo

Here, you're light as a ghost
But on my mind you weigh the most
Like a country at war
Trading towns and keeping score

I can see your head in the crowd
Like the sun through the clouds
You're always turning me inside out

But it falls through the cracks in the glass
When you move it too fast
And the time it turns inside out

But the mortal isn't lost on me
I know I'll never see
The light

Ding dong
The wrong song in my brain again
I know who'll be at the door
Spin spin
End up right back where I begin
The record shatters
On the floor

There's a love in my mind
It's a different but familiar kind
There's a kiss in the cup
Who'll be there to pick it up?

If I was brave
If I was strong
Would you hold the candle longer?
If I burnt it to the ground
If I fall do I make a sound?

I can see your head in the crowd
Like the sun through the clouds
You're always turning me inside out

But it falls through the cracks in the glass
When you move it too fast
And the time it turns inside out

But the mortal isn't lost on me
I know I'll never see
The light
