Lyrics
Verse 1
You forgot your make-up, you forgot your clothes
You forgot to wash your face and powder from your nose
Another neon sunrise washes you away
Another end to another night that fades your world to grey
Chorus 1
But the spider on your wall is getting closer
The monkey on your back begins to smile
The spider on your wall is getting closer
It's a crazy kind of day but no surprise
Verse 2
Heavy breathing sleeper with the smell of fear
Close your eyes you're wishing now that you could disappear
You say it's not forever, you say tonight's the last
You say you'll leave it all behind and leave it in the past
Chorus 2
But the spider on your wall is getting closer
The monkey on your back begins to smile
The spider on your wall is getting closer
It's a crazy kind of day but no surprise
Mid8
You forgot the daydream, a picture-perfect view
Everything you left behind will never follow you
Chorus 3
But the spider on your wall is getting closer
The monkey on your back begins to smile
The spider on your wall is getting closer
It's a crazy kind of day but no surprise
You know it's no surprise
