Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down a spiral stairway
Like a blackout memory
You prop up your work
Like a figure of straw
[Verse 2]
Keeping your ghosts from the garden
But is it red ripe or deadened skin
Spiraling further in
Spiraling further in
[Verse 3]
Burn a candle to my skin
Turn the handle, let me in
I cannot be your guardian anymore
Burn a candle to my skin
Turn the handle, let me in
I cannot be your medicine anymore, anymore
[Verse 4]
I am a moment in time
When your eyes start to wander
And your head starts to spin
From the simplest task
Deciding what you will wear
Finding faults in a straight line
Have to remember to stop
Wringing out the same cloth
[Verse 5]
Burn a candle to my skin
Turn the handle, let me in
I cannot be your guardian anymore
Burn a candle to my skin
Turn the handle, let me in
I cannot be your medicine anymore, anymore
[Verse 6]
Burn a candle to my skin
Turn the handle, let me in
I cannot be your guardian anymore
Burn a candle to my skin
Turn the handle, let me in
I cannot be your medicine anymore, anymore
