[Verse 1] One eye is painted in a peach-warm light The other watches through the velvet of the night Square-framed halos of forest green and gold A quiet riddle that is waiting to unfold [Chorus] Oh, split-faced dreamer in a cardboard frame Who is the shadow that whispers your name? Drawn with markers on a dusty page Symmetry dancing on a paper stage [Verse 2] Diamond points pointing to the north and the south Unspoken secrets from a silent mouth Concentric rings of a childlike crown Keeping the chaos of the city down [Chorus] Oh, split-faced dreamer in a cardboard frame Who is the shadow that whispers your name? Drawn with markers on a dusty page Symmetry dancing on a paper stage [Bridge] [Instrumental: whimsical toy piano and acoustic fingerpicking] Paper lines and jagged seams Living in a world of two-way dreams [Outro] One side is day, one side is night Drawn in the lines of a watercolor light Two faces in one Now the drawing is done [Fade Out]
