Loophole

He bends the page where the ending should be Slips through the cracks like a ghost in the seams Every tragedy, he rearranges Every truth he touches quietly changes

And I chase him through the margins of the night But he always slips away before the light

Loophole, weaving shadows in the plot Turning every "is" into an "is not" Writing exits where the doors don't belong He's the reason the story goes on too long

Loophole, weaving shadows in the plot Turning every "is" into an "is not" Writing exits where the doors don't belong He's the reason for this song

He laughs when the hero dies too soon Resurrects them under a paper moon Love becomes loss, then love again Every scar rewritten by his pen

And I'm trapped in his revisions, can't break free Living lines he never meant for me

Loophole, weaving shadows in the plot Turning every "is" into an "is not" Burying the endings, dragging out the song (you can't move on) He's the reason the story goes on too long

Loophole, weaving shadows in the plot Turning every "is" into an "is not" Burying the endings, dragging out the song He's the reason I'm still holding on

What if he's the author and I'm just the page? What if all my choices were his masquerade? He folds my sorrow into another scene I'm a loophole dreamer in his loophole dream

So if you wonder why I never find the end It's the loophole bending time again He won't let go, won't let me through Every story I live rewrites into you
