  • My life tethered like
    Like a twin or a son
    Scared to be severed right
    Right before we begun
    Doubled like a couple, we stood
    Stood out in the light, light
    Clutching each other like
    Knuckles turned white, white

    I cried wolf
    Howled it at the moon
    So luck be damned
    Break that mirror in two
    I made us feel
    Feel unlucky too
    So luck be damned
    Break that mirror in two

    Our love twisted up
    Like a chain or an eight
    We square angles that
    That always will ache
    Excuses for the bruises we wear
    Black and blue now, now
    Breaking each other like
    Knuckles in a fight, fight

    I cried wolf
    Howled it at the moon
    So luck be damned
    Break that mirror in two
    I made us feel
    Feel unlucky too
    So luck be damned
    Break that mirror in two

    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what this howling will prove
    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what I'm gon, what I'm gonna lose
    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what this howling will prove
    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what I'm gon, what I'm gonna lose

    I cried wolf
    Howled it at the moon
    So luck be damned
    Break that mirror in two
    I made us feel
    Feel unlucky too
    So luck be damned
    Break that mirror in two

    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what this howling will prove
    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what I'm gon, what I'm gonna lose
    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what this howling will prove
    Cry, cry wolf
    I don't know what I'm gon, what I'm gonna lose Writer/s: SARA KEIRSTEN QUIN, TEGAN RAIN QUIN
