Doppleganger
Who comes to me wearing my own face
As dull as ache with eyes of empty space
What is its name, why this restless haunt
What do you want?
Doppelganger (whispered and echoed)
What have I done that you come to me?
Your vacant stare takes the soul of me
Your frigid grip, rigid claws that clutch
I fear your touch
Doppelganger (whispered and echoed)
Mirror me, fear or fantasy
Are you my death in disguise?
Mirror me, you are heresy
Of my flesh, if we mesh
Which one dies?
Who comes to me wearing my own face
As dull as ache with eyes of empty space
What is its name, why this restless haunt?
What do you want?
Doppelganger (whispered and echoed)
Mirror me, fear or fantasy
Are you my death in disguise?
Mirror me, you are heresy
Of my flesh, if we mesh
Which one dies?
Where now is fear? Fever drove it out
My time is near, this is not in doubt.
The ghost is gone; I will follow after
I hear your laughter,
Doppelganger (whispered and echoed)
Doppelganger (whispered and echoed)
Doppelganger (whispered and echoed)
