De-Lovely - Climbing

Hard to say when the voices overlap
Can't deny that you might have caught me nervous
Hands are shaking, eyes are red and thoughts are racing
First with the teeth, first with the money
Then the blood and broken trust or was it all some kind of

Wide eyed, cause I've tried and I've failed every time
It's horizontal
Staircase only by design, not destination
Recognize it by the frame and by the shape
But then the depth, it doesn't change
Are you still climbing?
Are you scared to admit you've just been crawling in the dark
With no kind thoughts to guide you
Or dissuade you from the start
It's spiral down or nothing
Why are you still climbing?

Hard to say when I hardly even sleep
Hard to say when I can't even think straight
But when I do, the lines and shapes are changing
And I don't recognize your tone
And every eyeball in the room is turned to me
Is turned to you

Wide eyed, cause I've tried and I've failed every time
It's horizontal
Staircase only by design, not destination
Recognize it by the frame and by the shape
But then the depth, it doesn't change
Are you still climbing?
Are you scared to admit you've just been crawling in the dark
With no kind thoughts to guide you
Or dissuade you from the start
It's spiral down or nothing
Why are you still climbing?

Staircase only by design
It's spiral down or nothing
Why are you still climbing?
