[Verse]
Banana peel slippers, I’m skatin’ on Mars,
Mailbox full of letters from imaginary stars,
Echoes in my pocket, they hum when I walk,
Every step’s a riddle, every word’s a squawk.
Found a neon pigeon, it whispered my name,
Said, “Life’s a crooked ladder, the rungs ain’t the same.”
The moon plays hopscotch, flips gravity’s rules,
I’m a pirate on a pond with a ship made of jewels.
[Prechorus]
Yo-yo universe spins me in loops,
Chasing shadows shaped like forbidden fruits.
[Chorus]
Back to you, back to you, I keep running back,
Through the funhouse mirrors, on a melted track.
Back to you, back to you, though the world’s unglued,
You’re the magnet pulling me through the skewed.
[Verse 2]
Bubblegum volcanoes erupt in my dreams,
Candy cane rivers stitch the seams.
A carousel of clocks ticks backward at noon,
And I’m surfing the static of a blue cartoon.
Swallowed by a jukebox, I hum the refrain,
Dancing on the keys of a broken windowpane.
Every sound a whisper, every whisper a clue,
And the thread of it all keeps winding to you.
