[Intro] Crimson sunrise through the curtain, dawn is burning in my eyes Paint is peeling on the ceiling, shapes are twisting, pushing lies Ash and perfume on the cushions, future flickers in the frame Maps are curling on the table, every street a whispered name [Verse 1] Sunday twisted on the carpet, tread the patterns on the floor Brass and velvet in the lamplight, someone calling at the door Feet are tangled in the question, skin as faded as a prayer Liquid laughter in the hallway, something strange is living there [Pre-Chorus] Waking heavy, voices crawling, every shadow knows my name Moving sideways through the echoes, nothing ever stays the same [Chorus] Circling, I see you moving, shadow hiding in the gleam Underneath a pale December, slipping through my woven dream Call the monster to awaken, twist its name upon your tongue We are dancers round a spiral, stories old but far from done [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down [Verse 2] Mirror faces in the window, staring back with stranger’s eyes Lips of silver tell a secret, trickle through the morning lies On the edge of understanding, fingers just beyond the stone Every promise fades to thunder, but I won’t be left alone [Pre-Chorus] Time unravels all the answers, keep it spinning, keep it tight We go chasing after phantoms, never certain, always right [Chorus] Circling, I see you moving, shadow hiding in the gleam Underneath a pale December, slipping through my woven dream Call the monster to awaken, twist its name upon your tongue We are dancers round a spiral, stories old but far from done [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down [Bridge] Silver wire around my ankle, dragging clocks behind my heel Blinding daylight in the attic, not a soul to make it real Patchwork riddles on the railing, velvet curses in the glow Trace a promise in the plaster, let the sleeping feathers go [Verse 3] Cracked mosaics in the corners, secrets tangled in the yarn Sighing softly through the silence, fading faster than you’d planned Fractured visions on the mantel, brittle laughter, distant tune Ghosts are formed of aching mornings, nothing here dissolves too soon [Chorus] Circling, I see you moving, shadow hiding in the gleam Underneath a pale December, slipping through my woven dream Call the monster to awaken, twist its name upon your tongue We are dancers round a spiral, stories old but far from done [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down Oh, oh, oh, circling down [Outro] Faded footsteps on the carpet, morning crawling up the wall Yesterday’s reflection trembling, stretching long and growing small Broken lock upon the window, promises that drift away Final shimmer in the corner, dawn has come to steal the day Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down [Reprise] Paper shapes drift through my vision, folding corners in my mind Shadow laughter on the staircase, lost in riddles time won’t find Threads of daylight crossing softly, slipping backwards through the pane Every spiral's left me dizzy, every echo calls your name [Outro Verse] Curtains breathing in the morning, colour leaking down the street Ancient patterns in the pavement, pulling silence from the heat Quiet as the world is turning, old reflections fade to grey Still the circle keeps on shifting, drawing night into the day Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down Oh, oh, oh, round and round and round Oh, oh, oh, circling down
