"Fugue State" lyrics - THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS

Strange but true, divide the night, divide the night by two
And you'll see, you let the pieces fall and you will leave
In a fugue state, far behind in first place
Lady, I think that you are a new race
And left alone with this fate
Anyone in my place would leave you
What anyone in my place would do

You've earned the recent reputation true
In your wake you cross the avenues and stop to shake
Through your fugue state, passing time without trace
Lady, I think that you are a new kind
And your eyes fill in time, green and almost like mine
They're see-through, slightly darker and strange

Strange but true, divide the night, divide the night by two
You were played, you left in what could only be portrayed
As a fugue state, left behind and made late
Lady, I think that you are a new race

And left alone with my fate
Anyone in my place would leave you
Anyone in my place would leave you
