about

A song about symmetry and accepting that the blame is equal between two people after a falling out.

lyrics

Three months is short
no its not quite enough
to run all the way or slow to a walk
and you took me barefoot down the darkened path
and we talked

about how we felt
half a year ago now
Where the cold had sunk through me
and burned the lights out
and you took all my dreams and you set them on fire
And we talked

Don't you see we're the same
We’re so perfectly equal
We were made symmetrical
Mirrors of eachothers halves
So don’t blame yourself now
though these angles are true
The pieces fit together
But we’re both missing screws

One week is short
but it took long enough
for doubt to crawl through us
and disembowel parts
and the floor seemed to sink
for a week straight
I thought


Don't you see we're the same
We’re so perfectly equal
We were made symmetrical
Mirrors of eachothers halves
So don’t blame yourself now
I’m no better than you
The pieces fit together
But we’re both missing screws

But we'll be fine
Sorting our screws out in separate piles
Sand down the edges and take what is left and start again
We’ll be fine
Sorting our heads out in separate lives
Unpeel the thread
From the holes that were left
And start again

Don't you see we're the same we're so perfectly equal
We were made symmetrical
I couldn't be your other half

Don't you see we're the same
We’re so perfectly equal
We were made symmetrical
Mirrors of eachothers halves
So don’t blame yourself now
I’m no better than you
The pieces fit together
But we’re both missing screws
And that’s why mine were perfect for you
And that’s why mine were perfect for you
And that’s why mine were perfect for you
And that’s why mine were perfect for you
