Circles

(álbum: Anthem Lights - 2011)

[Verse 1:]
Ready, set, go
This is take 37, let it roll
I'm gonna get it right this time
Gonna fight this time
This time I'm for real
Look at me go
I'm off, flying straight as an arrow
Then I feel the wind blowing, gravity sets in
And I don't know how to deal
I always start so strong...

[Chorus:]
Before you even know it
I'm right back at the start
Doing what I hate
And breaking my own heart
I'm going back and forth
And forth and back
And then round in circles
I was never meant to travel on my own
So no matter what I try, I'm trying alone
I'm going back and forth
And forth and then back
And then round in circles
(Round, round, round, round)
Round in circles
(Round, round, round, round)
Round in circles

[Verse 2:]
Here's what I know
Direction goes out the window
The second that I hear Your word
I forget what I heard and go on just the same
(Go on just the same)
But the beautiful part: it doesn't have to be this hard
I'm just deceiving myself
I know I need Your help
Something's got to change
I know I need a change, because...

[Chorus:]
Before you even know it
I'm right back at the start
Doing what I hate
And breaking my own heart
I'm going back and forth
And forth and back
And then round in circles
I was never meant to travel on my own
So no matter what I try, I'm trying alone
I'm going back and forth
And forth and back
And then round in circles

[Bridge:]
No more insanity
I'm letting go of me
All this independence has made me dizzy
And now I can't see where I'm supposed to be
I had my turn and now my lesson's learned
I touched the fire and I got burned
I need Your healing touch
I've had enough
I'm tired of saying

[Chorus:]
Before you even know it
I'm right back at the start
(Tired of saying, yeah)
Doing what I hate
And breaking my own heart
I'm going back and forth
(Back and forth)
And forth and back
(Forth and back)
And then round in circles
(Round in circles)
I was never meant to travel on my own
(Not on my own)
So no matter what I try if I'm trying alone
(Trying alone, woah)
I'm going back and forth
And forth and back
And then round in circles
(Round in circles)

Back and forth and
Forth and back and
Round in circles

Back and forth and
Forth and back and
Round in circles
