Lyrics

[00:18] Helpless she lies across the stairs
[00:25] Haunting your days consuming your breath
[00:33] There will be healing but don't force this girl to stand
[00:40] As she's counting the ceilings with pale voice and trembling hands
[00:50] You told me life was long but now that it's gone
[00:58] You find yourself on top as the leader of the flock
[01:02] Called to be a rock for those below
[01:22] Whispered notes from the piano in the corner of the room
[01:31] Hold your throat is that healing that your hearing in her tune
[01:40] Wanting change but loving her just as she lies
[01:47] Is the burden of the man who's built his life on love
[01:58] You told me life was long but now that it's gone
[02:04] You find yourself on top as the leader of the flock
[02:08] Called to be a rock for those below
[02:29] I'll be locked up in a store
[02:33] In the lavender ward
[02:37] Cause my mind is just like her's
[02:41] Just as broken just as crippled just as burned
[02:45] And then I find myself on top as the leader of the flock
[02:49] Called to be a rock for those below
