[Verse 1]

What in the hell is the matter with me?

When I look around, do me a favor and lock all the doors in the house

Because now (Because now)

It's not right (It's not right)

And I'm noticing things (Noticing things)

So show me the light or the lightswitch

And try not to notice how

Color is cycling slowly and fading and now

It's all gone (It's all gone)

It went gray (It went gray)

And I'm noticing things (Noticing things)

I'm noticing things


[Refrain]

Subtle oddities

Completely lost upon your eyes

Completely crossed and hypnotized

Subtle oddities

They form a face in outer space


[Verse 2]

Don't be afraid, but the old chandelier in the living room

Fell from the ceiling and landed on top of itself

And I know (And I know)

It's not real (It's not real)

And it never was there (Never was there)

Dozens of chess pieces crawling around like a centipede

Only appear when I look at the statues that bleed

Out their eyes (Out their eyes)

It's not blood (It's not blood)

And it never was there (Never was there)

It never was there


[Refrain]

Subtle oddities

Completely lost upon your eyes

Completely crossed and hypnotized

Subtle oddities

They form a face in outer space


[Bridge]

I knew it all along

That something here was wrong

And now it's spread to you

What am I to do?


[Guitar Solo]

(What am I meant to do?)

(What am I meant to do? To do?)

(What am I meant to do? To do?)

*Guitar Solo*


[Refrain]

Subtle oddities

Completely lost upon your eyes

Completely crossed and hypnotized

Subtle oddities

They form a face in outer space
