Lyrics

On the wall a portal to a backwards world
on the other side I see a backwards girl
It all looks so strange, opposite but the same
makes me want to give that life a whirl

Through the looking glass I see a different life
What would she be doing on the other side?
It all looks so strange, opposite but the same
I wonder what she's gonna do tonight

She'll hold her babies,
kiss each one as she puts them to bed
She holds them higher
than all the wild creations in her head
She chose her flesh and blood instead
Instead

Alternate reality a breath away,
experimental thought to be her, come what may
It all looks so strange, opposite but the same
I wonder what she's gonna do today

She'll hold her babies,
kiss each one as she puts them to bed
She holds them higher
than all the wild creations in her head
She chose her flesh and blood instead
Instead

Wish the world were somehow all in black and white,
it's easier to choose a path you know is right
Would I be the same? Opposite and so strange?
Had to make a call and such is life

Hold on
Hold
on
