Twin Refrain

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

I fold the paper bird at dawn

She watches from the marble stair

Two voices share a single throat

And neither one will leave the other bare

Pre-Chorus

She says the mirror lies in halves

I answer back in operatic keys

Chorus

Split me open like a porcelain sky

Two throats one hymn that never learned to die

She takes the low note I ascend the high

Split me open like a porcelain sky

Post-Chorus

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah

Verse 2

We trade the mask at every turn

One wears the frost the other burns

A twin refrain a doubled scar

We argue with the chandelier

Pre-Chorus

She hums the part I cannot hold

I crack the note she keeps inside

Chorus

Split me open like a porcelain sky

Two throats one hymn that never learned to die

She takes the low note I ascend the high

Split me open like a porcelain sky

Post-Chorus

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah

Bridge

Call me the fracture call me the frame

Call me the second half of a name

If the harmony stumbles we start it again

Start it again

Start it again

Chorus

Split me open like a porcelain sky

Two throats one hymn that never learned to die

She takes the low note I ascend the high

Split me open like a porcelain sky

Post-Chorus

Ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah
