Spiral Lyrics

I could be day dreaming but for a moment
And somehow they're creeping back in
I could be sleeping, awaken the torrent
Somehow I get caught in their grips again
And here I am in my shame spiral
I'm sucked into it again
And I reach out for your benevolent opinion
And you bring the light back in, oh

Don't leave me here with all these critical voices
'Cause they do their best to bring me down
When I'm alone with all these negative voices
I will need your help to turn them down
Turn them 'round

I could be listening to a conversation
The story I'm not even in
These voices have their way when I am unguarded
Suddenly I step in quicksand again
And once again in my shame spiral
I am glad that you've weighed in, oh

Don't leave me here with all these critical voices
'Cause they do their best to bring me down
When I'm alone with all these negative voices
I will need your help to turn them down
Turn them 'round
All these judgments
So incisive
Voices left to their devices
This woman's narrative's in desperate plea
For slack to be cut to me
Cut to me, oh

Don't leave me here with all these critical voices
'Cause they do their best to bring me down
When I'm alone with all these negative voices
I will need your help to turn them down
Turn them 'round
Turn them 'round
Turn them 'round
