Famous Strangeness

Through the looking glass, we wander on our own
and as the days will pass, it takes a different tone
On any given day as I hang my head
I turn the pages back to find something you said
In a season when I’m turned around
and every sky it looks the same
I fight myself to change this
and it’s famous strangeness
We dig to fill the holes and rush to find our way
Build another wall and paint another face
Yet the weight of the unspoken word assures that you’ll be heard
Way passed the time your world stopped turning
In a season when I’m turned around
And every sky it looks the same
I fight myself to change this
And its famous strangeness
The space that was our own is now an empty room
And as you touch the sky the greys turn to blue
So farewell to kings as we know
The footprints you laid will tell it all
Through the looking glass, we wander on our own
and as the days will pass, it takes a different tone
On any given day as I hang my head
I turn the pages back to find something you said
In a season when I’m turned around
and every sky it looks the same
I fight myself to change this
and it’s famous strangeness
