Lyrics

PALINDROME 

typical of you to feel it right in your bones 

we never collide in a space of our own 

can't you recognize that your life is a palindrome? 
pulling at your teeth as your sister insists 
she's never gonna change with a heart like a fist 
but it's easy to arrange when fate is a fatalist 

CH 
where do we belong? 
& where did we go wrong? 
each time that we were drawn 
on & on & on & onward oh... 

a summertime alone shouldn't be this hard 
drab as a fool, aloof as a bard 
proud in the rain & sensitive as a scar 
& all my former 
loves would warn her 
the end will be as difficult as the start 

[CH] 

BR. 
in your wounded pride your failure to hide 
how you react i'll come right back 
you can brace yourself against every consequence 
& when they fall your back against a wall & all 
your subtle evidence defeats your own defense 
& each exception to yourself oh it only seems to help 
erase the lines that you have drawn 
on & on & on & onward... 

typical of you to feel it right in your bones 
we'll never collide in a space of our own 
can't you recognize that your life is a palindrome?
