[VERSE 1 — LOW, CLOSE] I remember something that never happened, but I know exactly where it was. There was a door behind the doorway, and a silence shaped like us. You said something without speaking. I answered before you knew. Now there's a memory in my head that doesn't belong to you. [PRE-CHORUS] Every time I count the windows, I come back with one too few. Every time I lose the question, I somehow end up closer to you. [CHORUS] There's a room before the room where everything already happened. Where the clock forgets its hands and every straight line doubles back. I swear I've never been there, but I know what's on the wall. And there's someone in the corner who looks like me... until I look at all. [VERSE 2] I found my handwriting in a place I know I've never been. It said, "Don't trust the second answer." So I read it twice again. There's a photograph without me where my shadow still appears. And something keeps getting clearer the less I understand from here. [PRE-CHORUS] Maybe memory isn't backwards. Maybe time was never straight. Maybe some doors aren't for leaving. Maybe they're designed to wait. [CHORUS] There's a room before the room where everything already happened. Where the clock forgets its hands and every straight line doubles back. I swear I've never been there, but I know what's on the wall. And there's someone in the corner who looks like me... until I look at all. [BRIDGE — INTIMATE, UNSETTLING] If I dreamed you, who woke first? If you found me, who was lost? If the mirror only copies, why did mine move when I stopped? And if I've never crossed that doorway... why do I remember coming back? [FINAL CHORUS — CONTROLLED, LAYERED] There's a room before the room. I don't search for it anymore. The clock is running normally now. There isn't writing on the floor. There isn't someone watching me. There never was a wall. And I've finally stopped wondering... why I know that room at all. [ENDING — VERY LOW] I remember something that never happened. That's how I know it did.
