| Lyrics |
At the top of the stairs is a locked roommy secret chamber that no outsider viewsfor entry is forbidden prohibited
Behind this door is my other selfnot a picture in a frame nor a fresh disguisebut my other selfimmoblie inert and sanguine
My narcissus kisses exhale crimson breathand pump ruby to the lip
I stand before myself not Jekyll nor Hydenot sibling nor twin seperated at birth
I stand before myself unaccountable
I dreamt that I had feet of clay
I dreamt I crossed the seven seasand when I woke not knowing
I knew I led the double life
All I ever needed is twice removed
I spit in my bile in an airless temperin this vacuum a vampire reversed
This one who breathes life into meand even dull mirrors reflect the tarnished twosome
I stand before myself not another me
Not Döppleganger nor witless clone
I stand before myself unrepentant
I dreamt of sin and aftermath
I dreamt of centuries laid bareand when I woke not knowing
I knew I led the double life
