Two-Head Hare Lyrics

Two pairs of eyes
Two yours, two mine
Flit from our first kiss towards rustling brush
Two pairs of eyes
Not yours, nor mine
Sparkle back strange and slow as if they know us

And when you walk me home, basked in the gloaming
(What a familiar familiar)
Four more footprints join ours in the mud
(Those eyes, they know too much)
This two-head hare must be a lucky omen
(Not intuition but far deeper)
To nestle in every corner of our love
(My love, this hare is us)

You ask me where my soul will go
Once this body's died
I shall go into a two-head hare
If you vow to take the other side
Twitchy nose to twitchy nose
A sign for our past lives
I shall go into a two-head hare
If you vow to take the other side

I believe that in one life
If the inks of your outlines
Touch close enough, lines bleed and become intertwined
From bile, nectar, to blood
Come next life you'll wake up
Two in one body, united as one

Already I can feel this transformation
(My eternity blinks slow at me)
Magnetic forces weave my tendons in
(Speaking a tongue I can't yet speak)
Hopeless lovers hoping for good omens
(What makes a warning, what a blessing?)
I pray wherever I end, I'll still want to begin with you again

(Woah-ah-ah)

I see it before you do
The struggle written into dirt
The liver, torn out by something larger
The emblem of our love woven in ferns
We say nothing to each other
We know everything, quivering hopeless lovers
But you hold my hand tighter
Hold my hand tighter

You ask me where my soul will go
Once this body's died
I'd still go into that two-head hare
You ask me where my soul will go (oh)
Once this body's died
I'd still go into that two-head hare (oh)
If you vow to take the other side

You ask me where my soul will go
Once this body's died (oh)
I'd still go into that two-head hare
If you vow to take its other side (oh)
No matter how our heart may slow
This we've known since our past lives (oh)
I'd still go into that two-head hare
Still go into that two-head hare (oh)

You ask me where my soul will go
Once this body's died (oh)
I'd still go into that two-head hare
If you vow to take its other side (oh)
No matter how our heart may slow
That we've known since our past lives (oh)
I'd still go into that two-head hare
I'd still go into that two-head hare

To watch us fall in love
If just one more aching time
