Euphoria drew you close and barred the door
Held trembling hands to ease the first ensnare
You’re waltzing empty skies and craving more

Addiction lured you down to need his war
His restless smoke brushed God in lieu of prayer
Euphoria drew you close and barred the door

Tense circles ‘neath your eyes compass his core  
Relinquished friends flow on behind their care  
You’re waltzing empty skies and craving more

A paper chain of faces to adore
Found hope inside your fearless vacant stare
Euphoria drew you close and barred the door

Palms groping towards the ceiling met the floor
He built high walls and left you hollow there
You’re waltzing empty skies and craving more

And though our remedies claimed separate shores
We wrote a stainless bridge above stale air
Euphoria drew you close and barred the door
You’re waltzing empty skies and craving more.
