lyrics

Down the hidden staircase
Where you go when you’ve got Nothing left to lose
Change your hair
The clothes you wear
The way you speak
Your attitude your shoes
Make a note of time and date
These are the last things
You will ever choose
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
Down the hidden staircase
Where you go when you’ve got Nothing left to do
Leave behind your life your mind
The people that you love
Those who love you
Tell yourself
And everybody else
This really is the life you’d choose
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
If you’re looking for vainglory
Or to vanish without trace
We all have a different story
But we end up in this place
Down the hidden staircase
Where you go when there is Nothing left of you
Wipe away the years the days
Doing whatever you wanted to do
Leave behind the moral ground
The friends you found
Conscience, your point of view
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
You’re never coming back
