lyrics

Hand in hand in a foreign land, under street lamps and the sky
Giving in is all too easy, give it a try
Shy away from going under, on the right side of regret
They canonized me for politeness
Beatified for etiquette, beatified for etiquette

Who am I?
Who are we?
Who are you?
A funhouse mirror of what I thought I knew

Who are you?
Who are we?
Who am I?
See through your disguise
See through brand new eyes

Look out on surface calm, under-surface stormy weather
I try hard to keep myself together
I try to be so carefully unremarkable
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain
The man behind the curtain

Who am I?
Who are we?
Who are you?
A funhouse mirror of what I thought I knew

Who are you?
Who are we?
Who am I?
See through your disguise
See through brand new eyes

I start to fear when cracks appear, you start slipping off your mask
Plunge my hand into your heart, a nest of broken glass
Some secrets should stay secrets, some strangers should stay strangers
A meltdown in a stranger’s town, there’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can do

Who am I?
Who are we?
Who are you?
A funhouse mirror of what I thought I knew

Who are you?
Who are we?
Who am I?
See through your disguise
See through brand new eyes
