The Spirit of the Stairwell Lyrics & Tabs by Circa Survive
The Spirit of the Stairwell
guitar chords lyrics
Scratched out a note I wrote for you*
To wake and read
To know that I was there once
I knew that there was nothing that I could write to assure you of my return
But all the paper said when I was done is
‘do you still want me?’
Because I’d be terrified if I had to leave this place today
We haven’t saved the baby
As I said my darling
Spring is constantly calling me
And there’s no place that I’d rather be
I won’t be angry if you have to leave,
but I won’t be waiting for that day
So don’t say you’re sorry because
I won’t believe you
but I won’t be waiting for that day
So don’t say you’re sorry because
I won’t believe you
Didn’t see a sticker on the door when we walked in
But I know it’s going to cost us
The same amount of love it takes to get you through
But it never moves you
I’d be terrified if I had to leave this place today
It’s where I threw my love away
Then we saw a different side of “Annie” nobody saw
She tried to kill the baby
And the earth and its skin will open up
And birth out a perfect mirror
That makes all our reflections clear
I won’t be angry if you have to leave,
But I won’t be waiting for that day
So don’t say you’re sorry because
I won’t believe you
