Stairwell Static Loop (versie 2)

Verse

Nine flights up, the sensor blinks

Concrete step, the handrail cold

Light goes out before I think

Floor eleven, same as told

Painted numbers, chipped and grey

Exit sign that never lights

I wave my hand to make it stay

Thirty seconds, then it fights

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when the count runs out

Tell me why the door won't hold

Tell me what this waiting's for

Floor to floor, the same dead cold

Chorus

Stairwell static, light goes dim

Step and stall, step again

Stairwell static, walls close in

Same floor number, over and over

Verse

Twelve flights now, my breath goes thin

Fire door locked from the other side

Buzzer taped, a warning bin

Nowhere left to step but wide

Echo climbs the shaft with me

Footstep doubled, never mine

Sensor clicks and starts to flee

Dark by dark on every line

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when the count runs out

Tell me why the door won't hold

Tell me what this waiting's for

Floor to floor, the same dead cold

Chorus

Stairwell static, light goes dim

Step and stall, step again

Stairwell static, walls close in

Same floor number, over and over

Bridge

Hand up, hold it still

Light won't take the bait

Ten seconds, then it kills

Ten seconds, then I wait

Ten seconds, then I wait

Ten seconds, then I wait

Chorus

Stairwell static, light goes dim

Step and stall, step again

Stairwell static, walls close in

Same floor number, over and over
