In the near dark, look straight in the mirror
Say all the right things, say em three times
Say them loud and clear.
It’s not what you’re looking for and you won’t find it here
Go on and knock yourself out, hope real hard, hope they all appear
And set you off in the near dark like a car alarm.
Screaming all night in a dozen different parts.
Not quite sure we ever got the ritual right
You tried so much but something’s always missing
Just can’t keep doing this every night
Hoping real hard for a spirit to visit
And set you off throughout the night like a car alarm
Screaming all night in a dozen different parts
Let every memory go on and play telephone
Mangle all the meaning of everything you feel the further you go.
Screaming all night in a dozen different parts.
