lyrics

When you come out, you’re going to fall down the steepest stairs you’ve ever seen
When you crawl back to the starting line, you’ll be the weakest you’ve ever been
And the hours will pass with your breath on the glass, looking in on the last of the old dream

Come down the stairs and meet me here
Darling, I got your message loud and clear
Hold on tight dear

When the voice grows in broken echos so thick you can’t get nothing through
When they haul you out with a punch to the mouth and you’ve got no friends to carry you
And when you die, with a bug in your eye, and the empty prize that was offered you

Come down the stairs and meet me here
Darling, I got your message loud and clear
Hold on tight dear
