Chop the Day in Half

Verse 1

I bit a peach and it screamed my name

Apples confess

Nothing is real until you bleed on it

Pomegranates open like mouths

Ants wear my face

Seven versions of me fight in one chair

Which one pays the rent

Chorus

Chop the day in half

Chop the day in half

I am the knife and the wound and the washing

Chop the day in half

Chop the day in half

Nobody knows what the mirror is for

Post-Chorus

La la la lie

La la la lie

(La la la lie)

(La la la lie)

Verse 2

Grandma hummed a tongue that died before her

Duduk in the wire

Every mountain is a buried vowel

I forgot my language

Learned my grammar from machines

So I speak in sparks

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I am a theory

Maybe you are a proof

Maybe nothing is proof

Chorus

Chop the day in half

Chop the day in half

I am the knife and the wound and the washing

Chop the day in half

Chop the day in half

Nobody knows what the mirror is for

Post-Chorus

La la la lie

La la la lie

(La la la lie)

(La la la lie)

Bridge

Bread becomes bone

Bone becomes bread

Bread becomes bone

Bone becomes bread

Guitar Solo

Breakdown

Why why why why

Do I keep the door

Why why why why

Do I keep the door

Chorus

Chop the day in half

Chop the day in half

I am the knife and the wound and the washing

Chop the day in half

Chop the day in half

Nobody knows what the mirror is for

Outro

La la la lie

(Nobody knows)

La la la lie
