lyrics

A dip, a spin, a fifth of gin: I'm dancing with a ghost again. The mirror on the closet door spills the moon across the floor, and yeah I'm sure the neighbors yell and ring the bell, but I say they can go to hell. I'm too far gone for company, so pour it strong and dance with me. Dance with me!

1, 2 & 3.

A twist, a turn, a scrape, a burn: I've never danced, but I can learn. The mirror on the closet door tells me I'm not responsible enough to worry how it ends, how far it bends before it breaks, disintegrates. The moon has gone and lied to me. The angle's wrong inside of me. I feel so free!
1, 2 & 3.

(Pound the floorboards into splinters, abandon sorrow ye who enter.)

A crash, a bump, and now the sun is cutting in on all the fun. The mirror on the closet door burns a hole right through the floor, clean and pure! This night must end, I'm out of gin, I'm out of tune, I'm in a spin. A man I've never seen before is in the mirror on the closet door, watching me.

1, 2 & 3!
