Death Spiral - Dirty Projectors

Hold up, I was reborn the second before the

Plane became shards of glass

And ash when it crashed on arrival I woke up

Feeling like I’m sipping on some René Descartes

And you’re Big Gulping the Bible

Your wings are broken so we fly in a spiral

All I have is my love of love

But now you wanna blow us up

You’re so rock 'n' roll suicidal

Tailspin, nose down

Now it’s a race to the bottom

Tailspin, nose down

Now it’s a race to the bottom

(You spin me around)

In a wild death spiral

(We're hitting the ground)

In a fiery pile

(Whose fault I couldn’t fly)

For the dials, only by the eye

(Now the ring is on fire)

Now it’s final

Death spiral

What can we say?

It’s too late

We can’t rewind to when we were both open and amazed

Like a wide-eyed child’s smile

But it’s the end, we’re enemies, not friends

I don’t know your state of mind, mine’s good, bye

Tailspin, nose down

Now it’s a race to the bottom

Tailspin, nose down

Now it’s a race to the bottom

(You spin me around)

In a wild death spiral

(We're hitting the ground)

In a fiery pile

(Whose fault I couldn’t fly)

For the dials, only by the eye

(Now the ring is on fire)

Now it’s final

Death spiral

Our love is in a spiral (Death)

Our love is a (Death), my love is a (Death)

Our love is in a spiral (Death spiral)

Our love is a (Death), my love is a (Death)

Our love is in a spiral (Death spiral)

Spiral

(Death spiral)

Spiral

This isn’t 'bout the time you chased me down the street

Face a rictus of misery and pain

You grabbed my arm and wouldn’t let me leave

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi!

Or how I never learned to let you breathe

Condescended relentlessly

These threads need disentangling

So we have thread left to weave

Now our love is spiraling finally down

Now our helix is widening, coming unbound

(You spin me around)

In a wild death spiral

(We're hitting the ground)

In a fiery pile

(Whose fault I couldn’t fly)

For the dials, only by the eye

(Now the ring is on fire)

Now it’s final

Death spiral

Our love is in a spiral (Death)

Your love is a (Death), my love is a (Death)

Our love is in a spiral (Death spiral)

Your love is a (Death), my love is a (Death)

Our love is in a spiral (Death spiral)

Your love is a (Death), my love is a (Death)

Our love is in a spiral (Death spiral)

Spiral

(Death spiral)
