When I woke up today my spirit spoke backwards
When I went to bed the mirror remained
When you snapped back I saw Coldspring reflections
Caught in proto-speech neurons, caught in minivan rain
All the skies there seemed gray as the pavement
And I can’t seem to remember it ever brightened
I remember your houses, I remember both of them
My spirit spoke backwards, the mirror remained
Now I can see you
And now you’re gone again
More ghostly than a ghost
We’re sailing on oceans of layered time
We’re making space bend, we’re cutting out rhymes
This is the story of a still generation
This is a lesson culled from years of excess
A reckoning now for the sins of our nation
Here is the meaning, we are the ones left
Planted on Earth to Bloom in Heaven
Planted on Earth to Bloom in Heaven
Now I can see you
And now you’re gone again
More ghostly than a ghost
