Seventh Stair lyrics
by Von Ra



Emily sits on the seventh stairJust outside the lions' lairHolding the magic in her bowlShe feels complete, it makes her wholeShe takes the hand of a passing boyWho treats her like a battered toyShe doesn't know, she doesn't careShe breathes the magic in the airAnd how do you tell her it isn't real?How do you say it's a short end deal?How do you save a passing glance?And how do you give her another chance?It's a hard won fight to keep her hereWhere reality is crystal clearShe says she loves you, she slips awayShe says she'll find you some other dayShe'll make you feel like she wants to goBut she says it isn't true you knowShe says the hazes are her homeShe'll show you where she wants to roam(Chorus)She's beautiful and she's very sweetBut the magic smoke is who she'll meetSo the letters you write, you'll never sendHer daytime nightmare never endsYou're watching it pull her to the topYou're waiting for the shoe to dropShe says she loves you but she won't stayShe says it's her life anyway(Chorus)
