9.Spirit of The Stairwell
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
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
