lyrics

This tune’s a circle
We’re starting at the top
Tell me if you’ve heard this joke before and I swear I’ll stop
If the middle’s not the mean
Then what falls in between
It’s all a game
That you’re meant to lose
It’s all a game you’d better
Put on your running shoes

This tune’s a circle
The second time around
Chin up buttercup
Let’s turn it upside down
There’s a room inside with drinks and things
We’re trying not to drown

All the stories that you tell yourself
Isn’t it such fun
And all the music in your sleep that’ll never see the sun
All the friends have moved away
While you’re sitting here turning grey

This tune’s a circle
We’re coming around the bend
Is this the illustration that you pictured for the end
Your will is close to breaking
You’re far too old to bend
It’s all a game
That you’re meant to lose
It’s all a game but
You can still choose love
