Looking Glass Blues

Think I'd like to climb down in a hole

down in the bottom of the world below

twist myself back out of sight

looking glass says have a look inside

drink a little bottle and I disappear

smaller I grow, smaller all my fears

I can fit inside the heard of anywhere

looking glass blues and I don't care

time ticks backwards and the day is null

borrowing dreams from a buying ground

stranded on a chest board, I can't move

and I don't even want to sing these backwards blues

backwards blues

backwards blues

what can you see through a looking glass

the opposite of everything that you can't have

you can't have

good or bad

I see what exists outside myself

the absence of something that I know to well

now the fear is reaching like a hand in a glove

the ugliest thing inside a heard you can think of

I walk through a key big as the sun

past all meanings and the things we've done

counterfeit soul with an infant brain

cause that's how we gonna get along today
