Lyrics

[Intro]
[Hook]
Time is a fold
Stories get old
Records are sold
Secrets untold
[Verse]
Glitter on my white glove
Things I used to love
Found a pop-up castle
What a boring hassle
Dragon spines are sharp
Playing on a harp
Static in the room
Archival gloom
[Pre-Chorus]
The ink is turning black
I want my childhood back
The stamps are melting down
I’m the archivist clown
[Chorus]
Linear time is a joke
Watch it go up in smoke
I’m charging a fee
For the ghost of me
Pop-up spines in the night
Give me a fright
Cardboard and tar
How very bizarre
[Post-Chorus]
Fold it back
Keep it on track
Fold it back
Heart attack
[Verse]
Found a photo of me
Under page twenty-three
My first broken heart
Tearing me apart
It’s glued to a tree
Set the ghost free
Dust in my lungs
Speaking in tongues
[Pre-Chorus]
Scanning the barcode now
I forgot the why and how
Due dates turn to sludge
I’m the only judge
[Chorus]
Linear time is a joke
Watch it go up in smoke
I’m charging a fee
For the ghost of me
Pop-up spines in the night
Give me a fright
Cardboard and tar
How very bizarre
[Bridge]
The clock is a cage
I’m ripping the page
Past and the future
A jagged little suture
Glue it all shut
Deep in the gut
I’m losing my mind
One book at a time
[Breakdown]
Check the date
You're too late
Seal the fate
Close the gate
Tick tock stop
Let the beat drop
[Chorus]
Linear time is a joke
Watch it go up in smoke
I’m charging a fee
For the ghost of me
Pop-up spines in the night
Give me a fright
Cardboard and tar
How very bizarre
[Post-Chorus]
Fold it back
Keep it on track
Fold it back
Heart attack
[Outro]
