Verse 1:
G Oh, little one are you lost on the run?
C When the rain starts falling, I can't hear you calling
G I saw you there, we were both unaware
C Of the plots that were thickening, venomous and sickening
Chorus:
BmC Coming down the spiral stairs
G With the end of the world in you eyes
BmC No one never could follow you there
G The corridors crumble behind
Verse 2:
I walked alone into places unknown Where the wild creatures lay with the children all day Then I could see, rising up from beneath The blue flower was growing from under the ocean
Chorus:
Then the thunder pulled me away And the lightning ripped through the sky All around me, the world was so strange Like a book I always wanted to write
Bridge:
DC In the unseen hand will pick me up
G And take me far from home
D Lead me through the dream, surround,
CG And bury me I'll lay there all alone
All alone
Verse 3:
I felt the waves coming up from the graves All the people who knew me were all moving through me I trembled and shook as I read from the book Of that rolling, black water that end demon's daughter
Chorus:
Coming down the spiral stairs With the end of the world in you eyes No one never could follow you there The corridors crumble behind
