Running In Circles

Another twist and turn Another life unlearned What makes us change Why do we turn around We’re just here with no agenda Is there a place for this I’m just looking for the reason But the ride that you take Doesn’t always make the trip Some things we can’t always count on You put your trust is some You don’t believe in most If you knew what would come Then you would be more frightened I’ve been here before I guess I’ll be here again Although it’s hard It’s better than the alternate I know what to expect I don’t want to deal That’s not the choice that all of us get We become lovers then become others That’s the cycle of making our bed We’re running in circles To find an answer We’re looking for something Without the directions We’re running in circles Without a compass The search will lead you To yourself
