Loose pairs of eyes on a lonely threat
Inspired demise on a movie set
Rewriting my sins
For the actors, anyone I've ever met
All waiting for another scene to start
Broken possessions or a broken heart
Holding on to things
Hoping to tell the real and dreams apart
But that's not the way the story goes
And it's different every time I fall
Even further down the rabbit hole
Perfect lies from the dying light
Until distraction brings me home
Replay a minute, hour, or a day
Take myself half a fucking world away
Falling through my sins
For one where I can have the words to say
Speculate on everything I've ever known
Shaking things that fixed themselves a life ago
Holding all I see
In the same playbook that I can't let go
But that's not the way the story goes
And it's different every time I fall
Even further down the rabbit hole
Perfect lies from the dying light
Until distraction brings me home
