Circles

(album: BASED ON A TRUE STORY II - 2022)

Woke up on the wrong side of my life, yeah
Thirty years down, can't tell if I lived it right
I mean, nothing's really wrong, but it's not quite right, hmm
Watching all my friends do well, and I must be nice

Spent my life planting seeds
But they still haven't turned into trees
So much time chasing dreams
But they still seem so out of reach, woah

I don't want another day wasted
Racing against the sun again
Hate feeling like I'm running in circles
I don't wanna look back on me
Thinking that I fucked it up
Am I the only one that's stuck in a circle?
Circle

I wonder what they see when they look at me
I bet they see who I really am, but I only see who I couldn't be
Yeah, I only see someone who climbs so high and feels so low, got so high and then just froze
Tried so hard and got so close and that's what hurts the most

Spent my life planting seeds
But they still haven't turned into trees
So much time chasing dreams
But they still seem so out of reach, woah

I don't want another day wasted
Racing against the sun again
Hate feeling like I'm running in circles
I don't wanna look back on me
Thinking that I fucked it up
Am I the only one that's stuck in a circle?
Circle

I'll never get further, I'll never get closer
But I'm doing the same things over and over
I'll never get further, I'll never get closer
But I'm doing the same things over and over, and over, and over
