                   A#m    G#  A#m   G#
I'm waiting for my moment to come
                    F#    G#   F#G#
I'm waiting for the movie to begin
                  A#m  G# A#m G#
I'm waiting for a revelation
                 F#        G#       F# G#
I'm waiting for someone to count me in

                A#m             Fm
Cos now I only see my dreams, in everything I touch
G#                        D#m
Feel their cold hands on, everything that I love
A#m                Fm
Cold like some, magnificant skyline
G#                    D#m                   F#
Out of my reach, but always in my eyeline now

Chorus:
F#      G#  A#m   G# 
 We're tumbling down
        F#
We're spiralling
     G#  A#m      G# 
Tied up to the ground
        F#
We're spiralling

I fashioned you from jewels and stone
I made you in the image of myself
I gave you everything you wanted
So you would never know anything else

But every time I reach for you, you slip through my fingers
Into cold sunlight, laughing at the things that I had planned
The map of my world gets smaller as I sit here
Pulling at the loose threads

Chorus:
Now we're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling

Did you wanna be a winner?
Did you wanna be an icon?
Did you wanna be famous?
Did you wanna be the president?
Did you wanna start a war?
Did you wanna have a family?
Did you wanna be in love?
Did you wanna be in love?

(I never saw the light
I never saw the light
I waited up all night
But I never saw the light)

Chorus:
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
