a circle
round and round
always the same things
always the same feelings
dam da da di di da dam
dam da da di di da dam
dam da da di di da dam
di da di dam
over and over again
a circle
wishing to be a square
wishing to be a triangle
with edges sharp to cut like a knife
cut the blanket of sameness that hangs overhead
with new beginnings at each and every turn
new things to discover
new things to feel
a circle
stuck in the same path
mashed potatoes with no gravy
stuck with the bland
stuck with the ordinary
dam da da di di da dam
dam da da di di da dam
dam da da di di da dam
di da di dam
over and over again
a circle
rolling over and over
the same path to nowhere
everything the same as it's always been
scared of the future because it knows what it holds
dam da da di di da dam
dam da da di di da dam
dam da da di di da dam
di da di dam
over and over again
a circle
wishing to be a square
wishing to be a triangle
sharp do it can feel pain
pain so it can feel something
