lyrics

You came on like a cat on quiet feet with claws retracted
But it wasn't long before you had them sunk into my spine
And when my forward motion wasn't focused anymore
You kept my feet from finding that familiar narrow line

And my eyes, they started doing things I never told them to
And my head, it stopped listening to me, started listening to you
So now, I'm seeing double and the world has set to spin
And it's tearing through my body, shakes my bones again, again
Not again

And when the world went blurry like a broken camera lens
I was walking on the water, but my faith had fallen through
And I felt that I was stuck in two identical rooms
And they spun in both directions, I did not know what to do

And my eyes, they started doing things I never told them to
And my head, it stopped listening to me, started listening to you
So now, I'm seeing double and the world has set to spin
And it's tearing through my body, shakes my bones again, again
Not again, not again, not again
