about

This is a song about a falling out with a friend. The friend was a gemini, hence the title “Two Face.” The song is a disjointed imaginary conversation between us. The “spooky” parts of the song have the most optimistic lyrics, and the “sunny” parts have the bleakest lyrics.

The song is mostly a reflection on regret, because the dissolution of our friendship was absolutely my fault and it still haunts me.

lyrics

Walked up to your door will you let me in?
Hello loneliness, brotherly kin.
When you close your eyes, do you think of me singing every word, holding both your hands, crying by your side?

I can’t build no new nothing no new life no new nothing for me.
I’ve gotten all of my bricks aligned but mortar’s escaping me.
"Ze wandering," my mind numbing, say something!

Palms make future plans, you might let me in.
Goodbye mercury, loverly sin.
When you close your eyes, do you think of me singing all your words softly?

I can’t build no new nothing no new life no new nothing for me.
I’ve gotten all of my bricks aligned but mortar’s escaping me.
"Ze wandering," my mind numbing, say something...
