"Rabbit holes and black holes"

[Intro - single acoustic guitar, eerie, unresolved chord]

[Voice 1] I found a door I hadn’t seen before A speck of light breaking through the window I pulled the thread and watched the world unwind There’s something beautiful down here to find

[Verse 2] I found a hole I keep falling into The same dark walls, the same empty view I pull the thread and watch myself unravel There’s nothing at the end of all this travel

[Pre-Chorus] [Voice 1][Voice 2][Overlap] [Voice 1]: One more step, one more breath- [Voice 2]: One more drop, one more stop- [Voice 1][Voice 2] [Merge] …where does this end?

[Chorus] [Voice 1][Voice 2] Rabbit holes and black holes [Voice 1]: I’m chasing what I know- [Voice 2]: I’m swallowed whole- Rabbit holes and black holes [Voice 1]: There’s light if you go deep- [Voice 2]: There’s nothing, go to sleep-

[Voice 1][Voice 2] Same mind, same voice, same core I don’t know which one I’m fighting for Rabbit holes and black holes …and I’m both

[Voice 1] I met a version of myself down here That asked me questions I’ve been dodging for years She said the answers live beyond the fear I think I’m getting close, I think I’m near

[Voice 2] I met a version of myself down here That looked like me but hollow, insincere She said there are no answers, just the search And searching is just another word for hurt

[Pre-Chorus] [Voice 1][Voice 2] [Overlap][voices bleeding into each other] [Voice 1]: Keep going, keep going- [Voice 2]: Stop going, stop going- [Voice 1][Voice 2][Merge] …I can’t tell anymore

[Chorus] [Voice 1][Voice 2][Overlap] Rabbit holes and black holes [Voice 1]: I’m chasing what I know- [Voice 2]: I’m swallowed whole- Rabbit holes and black holes [Voice 1]: There’s light if you go deep- [Voice 2]: There’s nothing, go to sleep-

[Voice 1][Voice 2][Overlap] Same mind, same voice, same core I don’t know which one I’m fighting for Rabbit holes and black holes …and I’m both

[Bridge] [Voice 1][Voice 2] [both voices unison, exhausted, stripped to acoustic only] We’ve been arguing so long We forgot we share the same heartbeat We’ve been pulling left and right We forgot we share the same two feet Maybe the rabbit hole leads nowhere Maybe the black hole leads me back here Maybe I’ve been both this whole time Maybe that’s just… what we are

[Final Chorus] [Voice 1] [both voices now fully merged into one] Rabbit holes and black holes I’ve been chasing, I’ve been falling Rabbit holes and black holes One voice now, done with calling Same mind, same scars, same core I don’t need to fight it anymore Rabbit holes and black holes …I’m both …I’ve always been both

[Outro - acoustic guitar, single note, Suki alone, almost a whisper] …Gemini.
