In Circles
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Crushed like a bug
Under the weight of listlessness
Maybe I could have learned how to fly
But my wings never sprouted
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
I wake to the sound of the hum
Of the earth just spinning around and
There's not much for me to do
But count the days and look at photos of you
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
I was a fool to have thought that I was worth
More than just a short life and a lifetime under dirt
Dare to dream, that's what you told me
There's more to life than just your
Reluctant love and your begrudging touch
You've set like the Sun, maybe that's enough
But if we lay here, maybe we could stay here
Maybe we could die here, wouldn't that be fine, dear?
I wake to the sound of the hum
Of the earth just spinning around and
There's not much for me to do
But count the days and look at photos of you
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
(I live my life inside of this cocoon)
(Just like a flower too afraid to bloom)
People just go on and on in circles, in circles
(I live my life inside of this cocoon)
(And I'll die here)
