Lyrics

Verse 1

Rot

Dry rot

Underneath the silk

Centuries of sour milk

Dust

Heaps of heavy dust

Choking out the candelabra

I am the cold macabre

Chorus

Spinning in the empty hall

Fingers scraping on the wall

Wait for the floor to fall

Wait for the end of it all

Spinning

Spinning

Spinning

Verse 2

Black bile

Seeping through the tile

Glass eyes watch the window pane

Driving me insane

Lost

Everything is lost

I am a ghost in a gown

Burning the whole house down

Alone

Left here all alone

Chorus

Spinning in the empty hall

Fingers scraping on the wall

Wait for the floor to fall

Wait for the end of it all

Spinning

Spinning

Spinning

Bridge

No music plays

No sun rises

No one survives

The mirror is a hungry mouth

The mirror is a hollow house

The mirror is a heavy shroud

I cannot breathe

I cannot leave

I cannot be

Verse 3

Dead

The guests are all dead

Skulls fixed in a frozen grin

Wearing someone else's skin

Stop

Make the ticking stop

Time is a butcher's blade

Cutting through the masquerade

Gone

Chorus

Spinning in the empty hall

Fingers scraping on the wall

Wait for the floor to fall

Wait for the end of it all

Spinning

Spinning

Spinning

Outro

Just a shadow

Just a stain

Nothing remains

Nothing remains

Nothing remains
