Lyrics

Don't Wait On the Stairs

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You ain't doing nothing when you're walking in the rain

Your energy is running like the water down the drain

Fighting is exciting, making everything so hard

And every foot you run you want to turn into a yard

You ain't doing nothing when you're leaning on a bar

But your mind is making pictures of the person that you are

Feel the heartbeat of the city as it pounds inside your head

You've got danger in your eyes, you want a stranger in your bed

Heartbeat of the city, pounding in your head

You've got danger in your eyes, you want a stranger in your bed

Desperation angels waiting, leaning on the walls

Watching all the workers as they sweat it on the floor

Someone makes an entrance and the cat's eyes turn to green

Asking burning questions, you pretend it's all a dream

You ain't doing nothing when you're staring into space

In the mirror someone's looking with it written on your face

Don't slow down you mustn't slow down

Hearts beat faster in the center of town

Don't get scared You mustn't get scared

There's danger everywhere

Don't wait on the stairs
