The Antlers - Director Lyrics

From a stage in your heart
I can tell that you're far from yourself when you barter your lust for your health
And when you claim it's all a play, and you just don't care
I only stare
I'm a director watching you rehearse

You say
"Lend me your eyes to evolve from that actor I fight in the dark,
where I'm two twins I can't tell apart!"
But you remember which is which when the wrong man wins
You will hate who you are 'til you overthrow who you've been
How'd you expect your soul to send a whole
patrol if you were too far gone for me to know where to find you?
I've wandered out alone into your cold unknown to try to bring you home
So you forgot your way?
Well I'm trying to remind you
