Days Left Of You

ᴅᴀʏꜱ ʟᴇꜰᴛ ᴏꜰ ʏᴏᴜ

In the end - there's only one

As you fire - the starting gun

And the tracks - that lay before

Might not lead - me to your door

You're the worm in my drink

You're the drain in my sink

For as long as there's days left of you

In the middle of the night

There's a spirit - by your side

And your breath - gets short and long

As you hear this haunted song

Oh mirror on the wall

Who's the scariest of all

For as long as there's days left of you

Paint chips and potpourri

Shell cases like sprites

In the hour - of the birth

There's a charm - and there's a curse

In the bath - and in the spring

You will forge - a silver ring

And the fire that you drink

On the sofa you stink

For as long as there's days of you

Mirror mirror on the wall

Who's the scariest of all

For as long as there's days left of you

As long as there's days left of you

Amen
