Lyrics

a spiral staircase

a spiral staircase to the stars, pulling you apart
base by base ? the beating of your heart

a language we?re not afraid to speak,
should you awake from sleep ? heaven sends it?s regards

and just because you said that you would when they asked you if you could
doesn?t mean to say it?s any good, doesn?t mean to say you should

hear it singing in your veins, running through your brain
wild and free, life finding a way

and just because you said you would when they asked you if you could
doesn?t mean to say it?s any good, doesn?t mean to say you should

a spiral staircase to the stars, to io and to mars
travelling light years apart
