11. Spooky Action

Lyrics • Collapse The Frame

Intro

Verse 1

Check it—

We’re light-years apart but I’m feeling the pull

The void in the center is finally full

I spin to the left and you spin to the right

A secret connection in the dead of the night

No signal is sent and no message is heard

But the universe speaks in a silent word

We’re woven together in a silver thread

The laws of the distance are finally dead!

Pre-Chorus

Two parts!

One soul!

Half truth!

One whole!

THE SPEED OF LIGHT IS A BROKEN CAGE!

TEAR THE LEAF FROM THE HIDDEN PAGE!

Chorus

It’s spooky action! It’s a ghost in the wire!

Two hearts burning in the same cold fire!

I move! You move! We’re never alone!

A cosmic mirror that we’ve always known!

ENTANGLED!

Across the reaches of the black

ENTANGLED!

And there is no turning back!

Verse 2

I’m looking at stars that have already died

But I feel you breathing on the other side

A touch in the dark that the math can’t explain

A ghost in the blood and a ghost in the vein

The separation is a grand design

But I’m crossing over every border line

We’re locked in a dance that’ll never end

Where the rules of the time and the space don’t bend.

Pre-Chorus

Two parts!

One soul!

Half truth!

One whole!

THE SPEED OF LIGHT IS A BROKEN CAGE!

TEAR THE LEAF FROM THE HIDDEN PAGE!

Chorus

It’s spooky action! It’s a ghost in the wire!

Two hearts burning in the same cold fire!

I move! You move! We’re never alone!

A cosmic mirror that we’ve always known!

ENTANGLED!

Across the reaches of the black

ENTANGLED!

And there is no turning back!

Bridge

Call it a phantom! Call it a freak!

The truth is a language that we don’t speak!

Instant reaction! Instant collapse!

Closing the distance in the cosmic gaps!

You can’t hide! You can’t run!

The two of us are finally becoming the one!

SPOOKY ACTION!

SPOOKY ACTION!

BREACH THE LIMIT!

BREAK THE FRACTION!

Final Chorus

It’s spooky action! It’s a ghost in the wire!

Two hearts burning in the same cold fire!

I move! You move! We’re never alone!

A cosmic mirror that we’ve always known!

ENTANGLED!

Across the reaches of the black

ENTANGLED!

And there is no turning back!

I’m here...

...because you’re there.
