Think I'd like to climb down in a hole
|
down in the bottom of the world below
|
twist myself back out of sight
|
looking glass says have a look inside
|
|
drink a little bottle and I disappear
|
smaller I grow, smaller all my fears
|
I can fit inside the heard of anywhere
|
looking glass blues and I don't care
|
|
time ticks backwards and the day is null
|
borrowing dreams from a buying ground
|
stranded on a chest board, I can't move
|
and I don't even want to sing these backwards blues
|
backwards blues
|
backwards blues
|
|
what can you see through a looking glass
|
the opposite of everything that you can't have
|
you can't have
|
good or bad
|
|
I see what exists outside myself
|
the absence of something that I know to well
|
|
now the fear is reaching like a hand in a glove
|
the ugliest thing inside a heard you can think of
|
|
I walk through a key big as the sun
|
past all meanings and the things we've done
|
counterfeit soul with an infant brain
|
cause that's how we gonna get along today
|
