White Knuckles by Tegan and Sara Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
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
