​alfy

[Verse 1]
I think I lied
When I said I knew myself
I'm a figure just to the left of me
Taking cues from wishful thinking
So I set the scene
I'm miles away in the clouds
And burn the photo in the frame
And dig a grave, send it down, down, down

[Refrain]
You said it first
I'm sitting too still
You caught me staring daggers from the windowsill
I am the ampersand curled up between the words
It's all too fast, cutting right through
Do I know your name? Would you like me to?
I'm just the ampersand

[Refrain]
You said it first
I'm sitting too still
You caught me staring daggers from the windowsill
I am the ampersand curled up between the words
It's all too fast, cutting right through
Do I know your name? Would you like me to?
I'm just the ampersand

[Bridge]
You said it fir—, you said it fir—
You said it fir—, you said it fir—
You said it fir—, you said it fir—
You said it fir— (I'm just the ampersand)
You said it fir—, you said it fir—
(I'm just the ampersand)
(I'm just the ampersand)

[Outro]
(I love you so much)
(I love you so much)
(Ecotone, goodnight)
