The Owls Are Not What They Seem

[Verse 1] Coffee gone cold on the windowsill Red thread map on the wall Still pinned You say "It's all in your head Just dream" But the trees lean in when I hear them sing [Chorus] The owls are not what they seem They sit in the dark of my dream Blink twice And the world comes apart at the seam The owls are not The owls are not what they seem [Verse 2] Footsteps soft on a carpet of pine Names carved deep in the bark Our time You smile like nothing is wrong Bright beam But your shadow moves where it shouldn't be [Bridge] Maybe it's nothing Maybe it's me (oh) Reading the rustle As some kind of key But when the night cracks Right down the beam I hear them calling They call my name [Chorus] The owls are not what they seem They sit in the dark of my dream Blink twice And the world comes apart at the seam The owls are not The owls are not what they seem
