Twilight Omens Lyrics
I wrote your name upon the back of my hand
Slept upon it, then I woke up with it backwards on my face
Reading forwards from my mirror to my heart
Twilight omens in my life
Then I hear your name
Hear the way you sing your name
Should have given you a call
Then I say "Maybe I still feel the same"
I typed your number into my calculator
Where it spelled a dirty word when I turned it upside down
You can turn my dirty world the right way around
I keep hearing your name
Hearing them sing your name
Slept upon it, then I woke up with it backwards on my face
Reading forwards from my mirror to my heart
Hear the way you sing your name
Should have given you a call
Then I say "Maybe I still feel the same"
Where it spelled a dirty word when I turned it upside down
You can turn my dirty world the right way around
Hearing them sing your name

It sounds like he's waking up in the early morning (twilight) and remembers he got a girl's number the night before, but keeps seeing signs as to why he should or shouldn't give her a call. The number rubbing off on his face and being backward but looking normal through a mirror could mean that's she's deceptive. But then he hears her name on the radio (what he sees as a good omen) and contemplates giving her a call. Later with her number on a calculator (58008 is the only thing I can think of that would make sense when flipped upside down on a calculator), which I'm guessing he also sees as a good omen.
5318008 is a seven digit number :P

I got a detention for that once becasue a girl who sat at my table felt "offended"...... ooo middle school
I don't know if he met her once.. for the rest I agree with webmasterdee

I just love those lines. They're so clever. And the calculator part. I remember how people used to make '1134' spell out hello or hell when i was in elementary school... Heh.
btw this line: "Then I say "Maybe I still feel the same" sounds to me like "What can I say Maybe you still feel the same"
thx amusicalment the calculator thing makes a little bit more sense to me now could be anything else like that tho I am gonna think up a few others :)
The Lyrics are out of place. They should go like this.

wow, loveee this
** 11340 for hello, if that wasn't obvious.
Loved that calculator lyric especially. Bit of an old joke from school really, but type 5318008 into your caculator 'n turn it upside down... 'nuff said.
Made me smile anyway...
I saw it as him being obsessed with this girl, and thinking he's seeing omens which mean they're meant to be together.
