lyrics
the shape of your head is a twist of the truth
the skulls on these walls are they connected to you?
the stars are like eyes coming out of the mist
temperatures rise like an easter morning sun
it's not something you learn
it's something you do
sometimes i wonder if my other half is you
cuz i am only half
of what i am
...and half of that is what...
lies can do
...and where the rest is...
i don't know
...and i'm not sure if i want to know
back on my own
it took me this long
to get to the top of this misty mountainside you're on
now i can see where it's all been leading to
the skulls on these walls
are they connected to you?
walking with you down a slippery slope
and she said...
"if i were the sun you'd be the world i'd shine onto"
cuz i am only half
of what i am
...and half of that is what
lies can do
...and where the rest is...
i don't know
...and i'm not sure if i want to know
