Going around in circles again.

Pedal to floor, back in the seat, purpose and will verus modern machine.
Passing the slow, defeating the weak, all with the tar on the street,
and the weight of my feet the sweat on my face.
Wanting first place for than you can understand.

Going around in circles again.

Photo finish race.
Rear veiw stare chase.
Satisfaction only when I finish at the end.
If i follow all the rules, promise that i'll win?
Driven so confused that im going around in circles again.

Going around in circles again.

Holding on by a thread.
Cut me loose so I can contend.
Hoping for something more then second place, first place or more.
Where will I be when I get to the end?
Doesn't matter what place i begin three hundred sixty-one degree's and then.

Going around in circles again.

Another circle
We will make
Another circle
We take
It's all a question
To save the truth
Another lesson we lose
Ever since you went away
I dream about you every day
And hope that peace will be
The flame for you
As we grow

We will make it out of this
Step by step we'll take them before us
We will make it out of this
We will overcome
Love will save us

It's all a circle
We will make
Another circle
We take
It's all a question
To save the truth
Another lesson we choose

We will make it out of this
We will overcome

circles - safe and familiar circles
an old battleground with no victor crowned
and no way out

circles - go 'round and 'round in circles
and shiver inside when planets collide
lifetimes slip by in these circles

circles - days bleed into one grey mass
as distinction is blurred,words are all slurred
and meaningless

circles - stuck in the mode established
so many years ago,this constant vertigo
spiralling endlessly...

circles - we may be spinning alone in circles,
but that is OK,you know what they say;
tomorrow's another day...

{whispered}
Ok, here it comes. Stop it!

{singing}
Circles
She's spinnin' me around in circles... again
Oh that skinny blonde girl
Somethin' about the ages ({whispered} Stop it, stop it.)
I failed college algebra, again
Whoa that skinny blonde girl

{guitar, harmonica solo}

{whispered}
Why don't you stop it?
Cut it out, I'm soloing.
What? I hate you
Dude, I'm trying to tear it up!

{singing}
She took me to different places!
Like the university bookstore! ({whispered} I'm gonna ask you to leave.)
And the financial aid office!
I had to borrow her parking pass!
Workin' on the night staff!
At the computer lab! ({whispering} Wrong song!)
I totally found out her screen name!
Oh that skinny blonde girl!
And the circles and the ages and the ages!

{whispering} Dude, I told you not to bring that thing here.
{spoken} Beautiful!

GUITARIST: {laughing} Where am I? Is this song really in G?

{whispered}
Ok, here it comes. Stop it!

{singing}
Circles
She's spinnin' me around in circles... again
Oh that skinny blonde girl
Somethin' about the ages ({whispered} Stop it, stop it.)
I failed college algebra, again
Whoa that skinny blonde girl

{guitar, harmonica solo}

{whispered}
Why don't you stop it?
Cut it out, I'm soloing.

GUITARIST: {laughing} Where am I? Is this song really in G?

Take my hand lets go,
Somewhere we can rest our souls.
We'll sit where it's warm,
You say look we're here alone.

Chorus:
I was running in circles,
I hurt myself,
Just to find my purpose.

Everything was so worthless,
I didn't deserve this,
But to me you were perfect.

I'm scattered through this life.
If this is life I'll say good bye.

She's gone like an angel,
With wings let me burn tonight.

Chorus

I see me writin on this paper.
Prayin for some savior.
Wishin to intake her and save her.

In a world so, so godless and thoughtless
I don't know how we wrought this
All the love that you brought us.

It feels like I'm killin myself.
Just wheelin myself.
Just to pray for some help.

I'd give it all just to have, have your eternity.
Cause it's all that assures me.
It's worth all that hurts me.

I'd give you my heart,
And let you just hold it.
I'd give you my soul,
But I already sold it.

On that day that day,
I walked away in December.
I will always remember.
I'll regret it forever.

I remember brown eyes,
So sad and blue skies.
Turned to darkness and night.
I'm so sick of the fight.

I won't breathe unless you breathe,
Won't bleed unless you bleed.
Won't be unless you be,
'Till I'm gone and I can sleep.

Chorus [2x]

Tha Producer:
I've gone away,
Seen better times in yesterday (I hurt myself).
It's hard to say,
That everything will be okay (I hurt myself).

I've gone away,
Seen better times in yesterday (I hurt myself).
It's hard to say,
That everything will be okay (I hurt myself)

When you were languishing in rooms I built to file you in,
And when the wind set down in funnel form and pulled you in.

[chorus]
I don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles, walk around in circles,
Walk around in...
Don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles, walk around in circles,
Walk around in...

When the ghostly dust of violence traces everything,
And when the gas runs out just wreck it, you insured the thing.

[chorus]
I don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles, walk around in circles,
Walk around in...
Don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles, walk around in circles,
Walk around in...

Doom da doom da doom
What I'm doing I'm doing
[x4]

But I can't sigh now that you made the move.
It has gone and gone to dogs, lay down on the floor,
For the right price I can get everything.
Slip into the car, go driving to the farthest star.

[chorus]
I don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk-a, in circles, walk around in circles,
Walk around in-a...

Don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles, walk around in circles,
Walk around in...[x2]

Move on
You better move on
You're walking in circles

Move on
You better move on
You're walking in tiny circles

But now it is too late
There's way too much pressure
We both lost that little faith

So move on
You better move on
You're walking down in circles

Move on
You better move on
You're walking in tiny circles

But now it is too late
There's way too much pressure
We both lost that little faith
So move on

Chorus:

Nothing feels the same as it did
Enter this old game
You've got to learn to love yourself
And move on

You saw me lost in treading water
I looked pathetic
And as helpless as a
Stinger without a bee
But underneath my presentation
Yeah
I knew the walls were coming down
And the stones that fell
Were aiming away from me

Hey what would it mean to you (What would it mean to you)
To know
That it'll come back around again
Hey whatever it means to you (Whatever it means to you)
Know that everything
Moves in circles yeah

I saw you standing in my headlights
Blink blink blink
I thought I'd run you down
For the weight you left on me
Instead I pushed rewind
Reversed and drove away
And see you disappear in my rearview
Brought to me the word reciprocity

Hey what would it mean to you (What would it mean to you)
To know
That it'll come back around again
Hey whatever it means to you (Whatever it means to you)
Know that everything
Moves in circles yeah

Round and round we go
We couldn't know it'd end so well
We fall on and we fall off
Existential carousel
Spin

Hey what would it mean to you (What would it mean to you)
To know
That it'll come back around again
Hey whatever it means to you (Whatever it means to you)
Know that everything
Moves in circles yeah
Oh
Everything moves in circles
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round and round and
Round

--------------------------------------------------------

Círculos

Me viste perdido pisando el agua
Me veía patético y tan desvalido como un aguijón sin una abeja
Pero debajo de mi presentación. Si
Sabía que las paredes se derrumbaban
Y las piedras que caían apuntaban lejos de mi

Hey, ¿Qué significaría para ti?
Saber que volverá nuevamente
Hey, lo que sea que signifique para ti
Saber que todo se mueve en círculos

Te vi parada sobre los reflectores de mi auto
Pensé que te correría por el peso que me dejaste
Pero cuando presioné rebobinar, se invirtió y se fue
Y te veo, desaparecer a mi vista
Me ha traído la palabra reciprocidad

Hey, ¿Qué significaría para ti?
Saber que volverá nuevamente
Hey, lo que sea que signifique para ti
Saber que todo se mueve en círculos

Alrededor estamos yendo
Podríamos saber cuando termine también
Caemos y nos levantamos
Carrusel existencial

Hey, ¿Qué significaría para ti?
Saber que volverá nuevamente
Hey, lo que sea que signifique para ti
Saber que todo se mueve en círculos
Todo se mueve en círculos...

Breathe me in my love
and hold me in tight
Wandering, not lost
alone in the
night

The fear's begun to surface
So breathe me in my love
and hold me in
tight

You had me going for a minute there
I thought I heard you coming up
the stairs
There comes a time you need to let me know
We'll fight your demons
when they start to show
I would never mind a sudden change
Sometimes it gets
us on our better days
You're just a victim of the circumstance

Breathe in
as you spin in circles
So breathe me in my love
In circles

What we take
hold of
is up to us now
So try and hold your head
up above ground

You had
me going for a minute there
A subtle feeling lingered in the air
There comes
a time you need to let me know
We'll fight your demons when they start to
show
I would never mind a sudden change
Sometimes it gets us on our better
days
You're just a victim of the circumstance

Breathe in as you spin in
circles
So breathe me in my love
In circles

Life is going around in circles
Wonder will it ever end
If I die, baby, will you miss me
Or just find another friend
Does it matter what I do
Live life right or bear a grudge?
Does it matter what I do
Is there anyone to judge?

I have been to many places
I have journeyed through the mind
Though I've found some different faces
Another answer I can't find
Does it matter what I do
Is there anyone to say?
Does it matter what I do
Is there any other way?

I have got what I once dreamed of
As a child, so long ago
But my life just goes in circles
'Cause one answer I don't know
Does it matter what I do
Who will hear me if I cry?
Does it matter what I do
Does it matter if I die?

i'm on my knees
and shes on her last defense
though the tempest may breathe
we know we're on our last pretense

our love is cyclical
it moves in circles
shifting and convolving
goes round again
it shelters like nightfall
sinks us in circles

pray the dark of night sees the sun
again...

if i believe,
tell me we'll eventually matter
if i believe,
tell me we'll eventually matter
again

so here comes the rain
it falls on my face again
though i'm tempted to start
after considering i stop again

we break the dark seal
unhide whats been hidden
reacting to the unreal
trust me i know how it feels, yeah...

our love is cyclical
it moves in circles
shifting and convolving
goes around again

it shelters like nightfall
sinks us in circles
pray the dark of night
sees the sun again...

if i believe,
tell me we'll eventually matter
if i believe,
tell me we'll eventually matter,
again

our love is cyclical
it moves in circles
shifting and convolving
goes round again

it shelters like nightfall
sinks us in circles
pray the dark of night
sees the sun again...

if i believe,
tell me we'll eventually matter
if i believe,
tell me we'll eventually matter,
again

Another day
Another sunrise
Another factory call
Another night
Another sunset
Another freefall

Am I alive?
Am I on purpose?
Within the weakness
Within the weakness

Spinning out in circles
In circles, in circles
Spinning out in circles
In circles, in circles

Another day
Another lifetime
Another engine stalls
Another line
Another freeway
Another freefall

Am I alive?
Am I on purpose?
Within the weakness
Within the weakness

Spinning out in circles
In circles, in circles
Spinning out in circles
In circles, in circles
In circles, in circles

I've lost all that I wanted to leave
I've lost all that I wanted to be
Don't believe that there's nothing that's true
Don't believe in this modern machine
The modern machine

In Circles

Spinning, Spinning
In circles, in circles
Spinning out in circles
In circles, in circles

Ever since you left me
I've been trying to hide the pain
Painting on a smile with lipstick
Putting on a big charade
So difficult to keep pretending
It's getting harder everyday
It's plain to see I'm cold and heartsick
Since you turned and walked away
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without out
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you
(running around in circles over you)

Saturday I saw you
Holding hands with someone new
Somehow I kept my composure
Just like everything was cool
But inside I kept repeating
Don't you let them see you cry
So I casually turned my head
As the tears rolled down my eyes
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without you
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you

Everything is you
How can I pull through
My heart is consumed I'm so confused
Still caught up in you...love can be so cruel
Baby don't know how to turn you loose

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without you
No, nothing's the same
You got me running around
And running around
And running around
Nothing's the same
Baby baby cause you
Got me running around
In circles over you
(running around in circles over you)

I walk around in circles, up all night.
I wish there was something in my life that turned out right.
I'm waiting here for reasons that used to be clear.
What I thought I needed so bad was always here...

Going round in circles
Directions all messed up
I go to ground on a bottle of wine
And drown myself in the flood
My frozen toes are beginning to melt
I believe I'm catching a cold
Got oil on my feathers and I can't fly
I gotta get back to your love

I'm a clown without a circus
There's no-one to see my act
I can laugh and sing and stand on my head
Nobody knows where I'm at
It's hard to be convincing
When these blues don't give me an inch
I ain't exactly losing
But I'm beginning to feel the pinch

My days are long and lonely
And I feel so insecure
There ain't nothing funny I'm losing you honey
I can't laugh anymore
I can't laugh anymore

Going round in circles
Directions all messed up
I go to ground on a bottle of wine
And drown myself in the flood
My frozen toes are beginning to melt
I believe I'm catching a cold
Got oil on my feathers and I can't fly
I gotta get back to your love

Old Chang surely told me
Not to mess with what you've got
But I went stomping all over your head
Like a bull in a China shop
My days are long and lonely
And I feel so insecure
There ain't nothing funny I'm losing you honey
I can't laugh anymore
I can't laugh anymore

I'm a clown without a circus
There's no-one to see my act
I can laugh and sing and stand on my head
Nobody knows where I'm at

Going round in circles
Directions all messed up
I go to ground on a bottle of wine
Drowning myself in the flood

Friends come and friends go
As I go round and round in circles

Love someone change your mind
Decide he was a swine
As you go round and round in circles

He who knows does not speak
He who speaks does not know
And I go round in circles

Dislike someone and will not bend
Later they may become your best friend
As life it goes around in circles

He who knows does not speak
He who speaks does not know
And I go round in circles

Soul takes on a body with each birth we make our date
With life and death along the road the soul reincarnates
The show goes round and round in circles

When loss and gain and up and down
Becomes the same, then we stop going in circles
Round and round in circles

Someway, somehow
I need to get back to a place where I feel safe
Get my body back on the track
I'll keep going cause I can't wait

Circling the country, running on empty
Need another crowd, feeling so lonely
Moving too fast, breathing too slowly
Bury it all, time to only
Stay somewhere for longer than a sundown
To rest my eyes
And firmly can keep both feet on the ground
I close my eyes
Take me there, anywhere away
Feels like heaven, baby

Cause all that we need
Is the courage to breathe
To write a page full of words
I wear my heart on my sleeve
A moment to sleep
In the safety of our dreams
Now I'm okay

I need somebody, someone right now
To tell me I'm okay
I'm doing this thing all right
Making progress everyday

Circling the country, running on empty
Need another crowd, feeling so lonely
Moving too fast, breathing too slowly
Bury it all, time to only
Stay somewhere for longer than a sundown
To rest my eyes
And firmly can keep both feet on the ground
I close my eyes
Take me there, anywhere away
Feels like heaven, baby

Cause all that we need
Is the courage to breathe
To write a page full of words
I wear my heart on my sleeve
A moment to sleep
In the safety of our dreams
Now I'm okay

(So listen up)
Let's give it all we got
Come on, baby
(Let's give it all we got)
Let's give it all we got
They can't take everything away
Take everything away

Cause all that we need
Is the courage to breathe
To write a page full of words
I wear my heart on my sleeve
A moment to sleep
In the safety of our dreams
Now I'm okay

now I am here alone
with this sadness in my heart
no one can reach me here
and no one to impart
the feeling to come undone
weighs so heavy on my heart
but I cannot find the words
and I cannot find the strength

I find it hard to breathe
like I am suffocating
within these boundaries of fear
I’ve forced upon myself
unable to find my way
when yesterday’s forgotten
and tomorrow never comes
will I be here tomorrow?
I’m slowly reaching ground
how can I break these circles
by which I feel surrounded?
I’ll find my way to live today
when yesterday’s forgotten
and tomorrow never comes

my innocence and patience
enclosed by this rage
within my world of reason
I am seeing blind
I find myself entangled
in my own web of thoughts
as extension and completion
of what I must become?

all these thoughts that fill my head begin to grow
until there's nothing left to show.
the loneliness seems to grow.
i would like to live again just to know
another date out on the lake
through the memories starting to fade.
i wonder why there are circles in my eyes when i'm alone, always alone.
i feel a bullet like the thread of love.
i wonder why there are circles in my eyes when i'm alone, always alone.
all these thoughts that fill my head begin to grow.

Ever since you left me
I've been trying to hide the pain
Painting on a smile with lipstick
Putting on a big charade
So difficult to keep pretending
It's getting harder everyday
It's plain to see I'm cold and heartsick
Since you turned and walked away
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without out
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you
(running around in circles over you)

Saturday I saw you
Holding hands with someone new
Somehow I kept my composure
Just like everything was cool
But inside I kept repeating
Don't you let them see you cry
So I casually turned my head
As the tears rolled down my eyes
I just keep going round and round
And round in circles
Keep on tumbling down

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without you
Nothing's the same
You got me running around in circles over you

Everything is you
How can I pull through
My heart is consumed I'm so confused
Still caught up in you...love can be so cruel
Baby don't know how to turn you loose

[chorus]
Oh boy my world has changed
And I don't think I can make it without you
No, nothing's the same
You got me running around
And running around
And running around
Nothing's the same
Baby baby cause you
Got me running around
In circles over you
(running around in circles over you)

Take this time to realize
That you always shut your eyes
In the midst of trial
And everything is always right
(and I think that it's time)
this battle must be won
(but you pushed it aside)
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone

This circle never ends
And it's time you
Just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you
Just face it, don't pretend
That it's over

Take this time to realize
That you always force a smile
In the midst of trial
And everything is always right
(and I think that it's time)
This battle must be won
(but you pushed it aside)
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone

This circle never ends
And it's time you
Just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you
Just face it, don't pretend
That it's over

And it never ends...
It never ends...
And it never ends...
(and it never ends)
No, it never ends

this circle never ends
and it's time you
just face it, don't pretend
that it's over
this circle never ends
and it's time you
just face it, don't pretend
that It's over
It's over

Yeah, we're gonna make mistakes
Politicians shake and fakes
Backs against the wall
Feel the world about to blow

Yeah, I wanna stay in

Were gonna turn it all around
Find new trees on better ground
Taste the easy life
Can't you feel it's gonna blow?

Yeah, I wanna stay in

Growin' old with you
What a thing to do
Growin' old with you
Just what I'm gonna do?

Thinking back to '86
Summer days out in the sticks
Black Sabbath everyday
Small town life has had its way

Yeah, I wanna be free

Took the open road in haste
Time to jump out of the cage
Experience the world
Drawing circles round the sun

Yeah, I wanna be free

Growin' old with you
What a thing to do
Growin' old with you
Just what I'm gonna do?

Growin' old with you
Just what I'm gonna do?

But she the type of girl drive the whole hood crazy
Little Red Riding Hood riding M80's
The type of girl that will probably be famous
Hollywood superstar, magazine pages
Apparently she had a thing for a nigga
Unfortunately the nigga wasn't me
Nowadays she's the life of the party
Glamorous and glossy, taking photos in the VIP

Now I'm like damn, wow
Look at you now
You got the whole world chasing you down
Miss Mary Mack Mack Mack
Y'all dressed in black black black
With a rude attitude tude tude
And tattoos down your back back back

But still you run circles through my head (circles through my head)
Circles through my head (circles through my head)
There she goes again (there she goes again)
And there she goes again (there she goes again)
I just wanna get to know ya
But you turn the other shoulder
And there she goes again (there she goes again)
Running circles through my head (circles through my head)

Burning circles through my membrane
Top speed, she done shift gears, switch lanes on me
I haven't seen ya in a minute but the hands of time show me it's some good thangs for ya
Like a A-list celebrity, ain't gotta see ID
Cause nowadays she's the life of the party
Glamorous and glossy, taking photos in the VIP

Now I'm like damn, wow
Look at you now
You got the whole world chasing you down
Miss Mary Mack Mack Mack
Y'all dressed in black black black
With a rude attitude tude tude
And tattoos down your back back back

But still you run circles through my head (circles through my head)
Circles through my head (circles through my head)
There she goes again (there she goes again)
And there she goes again (there she goes again)
I just wanna get to know ya
But you turn the other shoulder
And there she goes again (there she goes again)
Running circles through my head (circles through my head)

But still you run circles through my head (circles through my head)
Circles through my head (circles through my head)
There she goes again (there she goes again)
And there she goes again (there she goes again)
I just wanna get to know ya
But you turn the other shoulder
And there she goes again (there she goes again)
Running circles through my head (circles through my head)

From the Album:
* Keeper of the flame

I'm up and you're kinda low
Are you provin', that you don't want me no more
Mixed up and I'm all alone
And I'm ridin' around in circles
I've been up - I've been way down low
I've been up and down that road before
I've been up and down that road before
I've been ridin' around in circles
Ridin' around in circles. Yeah, yeah!
refrein:
Everyone knows the way, everybody's right
And everyone knows' where eveybody's drivin' at
I've been right, I've been wrong
I've been uptown and I've been pitifull
I've been racked, I've been sold
I've been ridin' around in circles
High - low - I've been down the streets where I once met you
I've been hot, I've been really really cold
I've been ridin' around in circles
Ridin' around in circles. Yeah, yeah!
refrein:
Everyone knows the way, everybody's right
And everyone knows' where eveybody's drivin' at
Don't mind that I don't know where to go
Every night I've been dreamin' that I'm not alone
Everywhere I go...
Early in the morning, late at night
In the evening - All day by your side! Yeah!
I give up - no more
I've been up to it & I've been here before
I've been broke - for a loan
I keep ridin' around in circles
You look beautiful baby
Walkin' down the sidewalk with that chip upon your shoulder
I've bee hidin', I've been searchin'
I've been ridin' around in circles
refrein:
Everyone knows the way, everybody's right
And everyone knows' where eveybody's drivin' at
You've been hidin', I've been ridin'

This chapter is over
He's not coming home
Her heart in her throat
As she falls to the floor

She shuns every memory
Every letter and call
Just to get through each second
She is slowly shutting off

Where's her sweet revenge?
Who will she blame?
Where's her freedom now?
How can she reclaim it?

He wipes the sweat from her face
As she moans in pain
A tiny and helpless life
Comes as if to say

Here's your sweetest gift
Take this moment fot sake
It's true pure and beautiful
In return for all your pain

Eyes wide, heart warm
She sees him in her face
If you watch the way the world gives back
In circles

Here we are at this party
Everything is going down
Music's playing loud
Keep the pressure off my coffee table

Momma said it's not loud
Girls are laughing way too loud
Jocks stand around
Oh damn they look so proud

A dude is spinning records
Like a stupid fool that won't stop
Quiet, quiet, baby
My ears are about to pop

Look who just walked through the door
It's Brian back from the store
To show the party he can
Break it just a little more

Hope there's more to life than this
I'm sure there's more to life than just
Spinning in circles
You got me spinning in circles

Hey there little girl
Haven't seen you for some time
How's life been
Is it good, is it bad, is it fine (so fine)

Sorry gotta make my rounds
See you when it dies down
Music so loud
Hell, your voice is drown

Hope there's more to life than this
I'm sure there's more to life than just
Spinning in circles
You got me spinning in circles

Now that the party's over
Hope everybody leaves here sober
Don't forget your lovely coat
I'm so relieved that nothing broke

Whoa whoa stop right here, what do you know
She just brought me another one
Just like the other one
Sorry pretty baby but I think I'm done

You better slow down girl
You look a little wired
I gonna slow down myself
'Cause I'm a little tired

Hope there's more to life than this
Better be more to life than just
Spinning in circles
Spinning in circles
A one, two, one, two
Spinning in circles
Spinning in circles
The end

I’m being followed by my shadow
He’s been creeping around asking where I’ve been
He keeps tapping on my shoulder, telling me its over
So where do I begin?

These dark day’s are getting harder
I feel I’m treading water
So will I sink or swim?
Roll on, push a little further
I keep saying is this worth it, or should I just give in?
I don’t know

I don’t know which way I’m supposed to spin in this circle
I won’t waste my time on your concern until it’s over

Look back on a distant border, I fear I’m getting older
There’s so much that I missed
Walk on, following a faint line, see if I can definite where I came undone

I don’t know which way I’m supposed to spin in this circle
I won’t waste my time on your concern until it’s over
I will wait my turn
My time will come – This ain’t over
I can’t wait no more, no sweet return
This is over – so it is.

Circles, my head is going round in circles
My mind is caught up in a whirlpool, draggin' me down.

Time will tell if I'll take the homeward track
Dizziness will make my feet walk back, walk right back to you.

Everything I do, I think of you
No matter how I try, I can't get back

These circles, leading me back to you

Round and around and around and a...

round and round like a fool I go
Down and down in the pool I go
Draggin' me down

Just one thing could kill the pain of losin' you

But it gets me so dizzy that I'm walkin' right back again
Back to you

Time will tell if these dreams are near his plan
Though I left I'm comin' back
Comin' on back to you

Down and down in the pool I go
Draggin' me down

Inquisitive and thoughtful,
she was the challenge he'd been waiting for;
a reminder that creativity runs deep like secrets.
Dark eyed dreamers; they were a dangerous pair,
Q next to U scribbled out on paper...
They stop / They go / They're done.

Go back to the place we knew before / retrace our steps to the basement door,
I'll ask you if the rain still makes you smile,
Like so much time that we spent in the fall / it put color in our cheeks while the air turned cold,
Preceding what became our bitter end.

Unanswered questions would be the only thing to stop them now...
He was the poet while she was the muse,
but she had a pen that she knew how to use,
with a touch of redemption, a hint of elation;
a recipe for disaster.

Go back to the place we knew before / retrace our steps to the basement door,
I'll ask you if the rain still makes you smile,
Like so much time that we spent in the fall / it put color in our cheeks while the air turned cold,
Preceding what became our bitter end.

Let this be a lesson to us all...

Round in circles -- lets start over,
Round in circles -- lets start over.

It’s been years
Since we carved our names
On a clocktower door
Before everything changed
We were big eyed boys
With the salt on our skin
And we’d throw our kites to the wind

And they’d fly on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on

It’s been years
Since we whispered soft
With the torch light on
And the big light off
We were tired boys
With the soap on our skin
And we’d fall asleep to the wind

And we’d dream on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on

Cos we’re circles
We’re circles you see
We go round round the sun
In and out like the sea
I’ll circle round you
You will circle round me

And in years
When the torch light thins
And the clock tower’s gone
And the big light dims
We’ll no longer be boys
We’ll have lines on our skin
And they’ll throw our dust to the wind

I see you walk around pushing people out of shame
I see you walk around you're hung over
I see you walk around missing every pace you take
I see you walk around it's not over
I see you walk around wishing you were someone else
I see you walk around searching for attention

Who's that they are sinking in me
It's burning all over and over again
Who's that they are sinking in me
I'm spinning around in these circles again

I see you walk around hugging people with no name
I see you walk around with weightless shoulders
I see you walk around looking for a missing face
I see you walk around fighting to impress them

You think you don't make one difference
It's all in how you perceive what you live in
I can't help but watch your existence
And I get sick when I see you can't make it out

You see me walk around
You see me walk around

We talk too much; we talk in circles,
Till we're all spinning round,
Reaching for rings, on this merry-go-round.

The scenery spins; we call it progress.
But I've seen this all before;
When all's said and done, we'll wake up on the floor.

We set sail with no fixed star in sight;
We drive by Braille and candlelight.

We're building towers with no foundations,
Just stacking stone on stone.
Whatever it takes -- mix our mortar with bones.

But true progress means matching the world to
The vision in our heads --
But we always change the vision instead.

I walk around in circles, up all night.
I wish there was something in my life that turned out right.
I'm waiting here for reasons that used to be clear.
What I thought I needed so bad was always here...
