Stairs

[Verse 1]
Time is just killing me, modulated tempo
And all through the greenery, wavering sunbeams
Watch yourself skeleton, the museum will soon find you
Fall down the staircase, the first place you fell in love
Please don't leave me just outside the garden
Beneath all my best friends I'll fall the hardest

[Chorus]
Can you see it, the crowd beneath us?
Or is this what we wanted, something more private?

[Verse 2]
Walking slowly past the graves of the ghosts
And it hurts most when I didn't mean to
Bleached bones, your complicated grin
Do you know the trouble we're in?
Just lie down inside the drawer, don't tell me what I cannot do
Elevated just above the ground but still too close for me
Did you bring the compass? It's still my fault when we leave

[Chorus]
I'm tired of saying what's so important to me
We've fucked up the message what's wrong with just living to be?

[Verse 3]
Walk a bit closer dear, the world is a vacuum
Some eyes look strange to me and the people who own them
