Circa Survive

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
