"Spider Silk" lyrics - NIGHTWISH

[Verse 1: Floor Jansen]
What did you weave during the moonlight hours?
Did you create or did you wait and trap the unaware fly?
Sucking him dry
Where did you get that little cross on your back?
Marked for life, a needle in a haystack
A laboring beast ready to feast

[Chorus: Floor Jansen]
Spin away the delicate silver silk of your web
On your masterpiece
Cut the thread, once you're done with the newly dead
And weave a new one

[Verse 2: Floor Jansen]
Spider silk, cocooned in unsung wonders
Motionless, she looks for stolen moments
Spinning away, a mystery play
Emotionless, she picks a life in waiting
Cutting the yarn, another death creating
Spider silk, a beautiful spin

[Chorus: Floor Jansen]
Spin away the delicate silver silk of your web
On your masterpiece
Cut the thread, once you're done with the newly dead
And weave a new one
Spin away the delicate silver silk of your web
On your masterpiece
Cut the thread, once you're done with the newly dead
And weave a new one

[Bridge: Floor Jansen]
Spin away, spin away, spin away, spin away
Spin away, spin away, spin away, spin away
Spin away, spin away, spin away, come spin away
Spin away, spin away, spin away, spin away (Oh, come spin away)
Spin away, spin away, spin away, spin away
Spin away, spin away, spin away, come spin away
Spin away, come spin away

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus: Floor Jansen, Troy Donockley, Both]
Spin away the delicate silver silk of your web
Cut the thread
And weave a new one
Spin away the delicate silver silk of your web
On your masterpiece
Cut the thread, once you're done with the newly dead
And weave a new one
Spin away the delicate silver silk of your web
On your masterpiece
Cut the thread, once you're done with the newly dead
And weave a new one

[Outro: Floor Jansen, Troy Donockley]
Spin away (Spin away), spin away (Spin away)
Spin away (Spin away), spin away (Spin away)
