lyrics

I can’t hear you through the mirror
Your words are brought to me
By a different speaker
A copy of your thoughts relayed
Streamlined, simplified
Caught on tape-delay
Did you imagine then
You’d be a fly inside the amber?
A part of you forever still
I can’t see you like they do
Lost in a pattern
I don’t recognize
To them you’re just decoration
An affect, a trinket
Agency denied
Did you imagine then
You’d be a fly inside the amber?
A part of you forever still
I can’t know it completely
The feeling of being
Slowly atomized
Do you come ‘cross yourself
Like a beast in the wild
With a piece of the whole
In the gleam of its eyes?
When it speaks in your voice
Does it mirror the form
Of the void that was left
On the day it was born?
Did you imagine then
You’d be a fly inside the amber
A part of you forever still
That you would never fade
And in the light you’d catch a glimmer
A part of you forever still
Fly, be free
Fly in amber
How can we say that we control our fate
When what we throw away will grow and replicate?
