lyrics

HER NAME WAS PAREIDOLIA

Her name was Pareidolia, and she was the most hypnotic woman you'd ever meet. To each person she came in contact with, she reminded them of something else. To one guy, she looked like his ex-girlfriend who broke his heart. To another, she resembled the waiter who got his order wrong at a restaurant last week. And to me? Well… She looked like a bagel!
I know, it sounds ridiculous, but hear me out. Every time I saw her, I couldn't help but think of a fresh, warm, everything bagel. Maybe it was the way her hair was twisted up in a knot, or the shape of her nose, or her round, doughy cheeks. Whatever it was, it was uncanny.
I tried to ignore it at first, but as I got to know her better, it became more and more difficult. Whenever we'd go out to eat, I'd have to resist the urge to slather her with cream cheese and take a bite. And forget about kissing her - the thought of my lips touching her salty, sesame seed skin was just too much to bear.
Eventually, I had to break it off. I couldn't handle the constant hunger pangs and the strange looks I got from the other customers at the bagel shop. But every once in a while, when I'm walking down the street and I see a particularly delicious-looking everything bagel, I can't help but wonder what could have been.
