Erase all the bastards, the grifters, the vultures
And your sad eyes, a dull flicker, projector, projector
Turn the world into the wild
There is nothing outside but a mirror and the sky
You're a dream in a dream, you're the only one alive
[Chorus]
Try bursting the clouds
Try not making a sound or leaving the ground
[Verse 2]
So much space and all I paint
Oil spills on black waves
I used to go easy, yeah, I noticed all the beauty
Now I'm hunchbacked, it's all heavy, reflector, reflector
[Verse 3]
But the magic isn't real 'til the magic is gone
If the flame was eternal then it won't be for long
There is nothing inside but a mirror and a light
You're caught in between, mise en abyme
[Verse 4]
I'm setting sail but I'm still as the wind doesn't blow
I'm waiting for eternity, I don't think it'll show
I'm at a party but there's nobody here that I know
[Bridge]
I called together every wolf in the Arctic, then I cried wolf

I built a house on the grave that you haunted, then I shook

I cried wolf
I built a house on the grave that you haunted, then I shook
I got shook
I lit a match and threw it into the garden, yeah, and it took
Oh, it took
Somebody tell me if I'm dear or departed, I can't look
I can't look
[Chorus]
Try bursting the clouds
Try not making a sound or leaving the ground
[Outro]
All I create is empty space
(Empty space, empty space)
Cheer up, have you ever thought of smiling more?
You'd look so good, try smiling more
