[Verse 1]
Tin kettle buzzing on the stove
Old black jacket, threads I know
Window cracked with Sunday air
Turn the handle, find me there

[Pre-Chorus]
Kitchen tiles are waking slowly
Rusted rhythm starts the song
Sneakers tapping in the doorway
Another day can’t stay wrong

[Chorus]
Strange old mirror on my wall
Laughs each morning, croaks a call
Sun crawls sideways through my mind
Sings a tune I never find

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, la la la, oh oh
Oh, la la la, oh oh

[Verse 2]
Barefoot wanderer in painted clothes
Climbs the railing, struts and goes
Paper heroes on the line
Trading secrets, undefined

[Pre-Chorus]
Something’s shifting in the stairwell
Crazy voices in the hall
Every window’s locked and waiting
For that sideways sun to fall

[Chorus]
Strange old mirror on my wall
Laughs each morning, croaks a call
Sun crawls sideways through my mind
Sings a tune I never find

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, la la la, oh oh
Oh, la la la, oh oh

[Bridge]
Paint can peels and shadows slip
Heavy letters never sent
Spiders drafting crooked plans
On a ceiling caving in

[Verse 3]
Spinning bottle on the table
Points to faces, tells me lies
Morning’s stretching out like cable
Turns to moths and paper skies

[Pre-Chorus]
Somewhere distant, someone’s humming
Names I lost and can't recall
Faded voices, curtain shaking
Underneath that golden crawl

[Chorus]
Strange old mirror on my wall
Laughs each morning, croaks a call
Sun crawls sideways through my mind
Sings a tune I never find

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, la la la, oh oh
Oh, la la la, oh oh
Oh, la la la, oh oh
