lyrics

It was the summer of the Prozac days, months when sun was mostly rain
But you stepped out from wallpaper that's plastered over the room
We made our Ouija board from card paper and a jar for baby food
Blessed it within a circle made of candles at compass points

And it changed, yes you changed it, it can't go back
To the same as it was before
All the wax that we melted, the grass we smoked
All the ashes that we smudged upon our Ouija board

Ran fast through the sprinklers, pushing rainbows on the lawn
Couldn't recite the poetry that spelled its way through our brains
We took a risk and put a blanket down by a river in the woods
Then we fell down the rabbit hole and ended up in hell

But it changed, how it changed, and it can't go back
To the same as it was before
All the incense we burned, all the sage we scorched
Leaving bay leaves tied around our Ouija board

I manifested a yellow hairband from the ceiling, I was scared
But you typed out the words and suddenly I wasn't afraid
I took some Polaroids, they weren't that good; pressed the button way too soon
But you! You showed me something from the pictures and then I knew

Things had changed, and they changed, and they won't go back
To the state from years before
All the things that we ate, all the cats we held
All the spirits we evoked atop our Ouija board
I love our Ouija board
