Wings of Tin (Around & Around) - demo

She always loves to repeat that line
"If boss makes a dollar, I make a dime."
She says, "how can I pay my rent
If boss makes a thousand and I make a cent."

Around and around and around we spin
With feet of lead and wings of tin

She dreamed of shallow furtive things
Like a house with a pool where she could swim
Her gaze on the sink she ain't washed in years
Stained by the faucets rusty tears

Around and around and around we spin
With feet of lead and wings of tin

Sunlight is striking ugly slits
Past the drawn down eggshell shades
Above a rumbling radiator
That's been dyed black with dust for days

One day she'll get up and leave her station
She might come face to face with a dragon
A Saracen gang, or an enchanted isle
Or if she's lucky, a new love

Around and around and around we spin
With feet of lead and wings of tin
