Down to Nowhere

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Down down down

Verse 1

Twisting iron under my heel

Every step a smaller circle

Her perfume hanging like a smell of rain

I was born again and again

Pre-Chorus

Spiral groove

Spiral loose

I keep falling into you

Chorus

Down her spiral stairway drug to nowhere

Down her spiral stairway drug to nowhere

Round and round and never down

Round and round and never down

Post-Chorus

Falling falling falling

(Keep falling)

Falling falling falling

Verse 2

The paint is peeling in a flower shape

My hands are scratching at the banister

Every landing is a little death

Every breath a tiny resurrection

Pre-Chorus

Spiral groove

Spiral loose

I keep falling into you

Chorus

Down her spiral stairway drug to nowhere

Down her spiral stairway drug to nowhere

Round and round and never down

Round and round and never down

Post-Chorus

Falling falling falling

(Keep falling)

Falling falling falling

Bridge

Incarnate in the hollow of her turn

Skin and bone and all that burning

I landed soft on a bed of noise

Now I learn the steps of being a boy

Chorus

Down her spiral stairway drug to nowhere

Down her spiral stairway drug to nowhere

Round and round and never down

Round and round and never down

Post-Chorus

Falling falling falling

(Slow it down)

Falling falling falling

Outro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Round and round

Round and round
