Lyrics

I'm running up a spiral staircase Drilling a hole in the ground And the staircase is winning And my head is spinning And I don't even dare to look round I'm running up a spiral staircase I can't reach the top I'm running up a spiral staircase And I'm too scared to stop And there's nothing anybody can do To stop the staircase, like a giant corkscrew From spinning around and around and around Now in the beginning I only saw you When the staircase hit your vision line But now that it's moving around so fast I can see you all of the time I'm running up a spiral staircase I can't reach the top I'm running up a spiral staircase And I'm too scared to stop And there's nothing anybody can do To stop the staircase, like a giant corkscrew From spinning around and around and around Now in the beginning it was moving so slowly I never noticed it at first But now that it's moving round so fast I think my head is gonna burst And I'm running up a spiral staircase I can't reach the top I'm running up a spiral staircase And I'm too scared to stop And I believe that I'm gonna shot through To stop the staircase, like a giant corkscrew From spinning around and around and around Now without a doubt I'm a-wearing out And I'm really beginning to tire I know the staircase is steel but it just about feels As though it's gonna catch on fire I'm running up a spiral staircase I can't reach the top I'm running up a spiral staircase And I'm too scared to stop And I believe I'm gonna shot through To stop the staircase, like a giant corkscrew From spinning around and around and around I'm running up a spiral staircase I can't reach the top I'm running up a spiral staircase And I'm too scared to stop And I believe I'm gonna shot through To stop the staircase, like a giant corkscrew From spinning around and around and around
