Circles - Jeangu Macrooy

Blood on my bare feet

I’ve been walking

I’ve been running

Miles and miles in circles

Fear of what I know

Of what I don’t

Of what I should

Going round and round in circles

And this is not how I imagined life at twenty-one

I thought that I be stronger now

I thought that I be wiser now

I thought that I be whole by now

Ohhh

I’m running in circles

I’m running in circles

And I’m back where I begin

Lies I’ve heard before

Out of my own mouth

I think I’m stuck

All these goddam circles

Love where are you now

I need you here

I need your strength

To break out of these circles

And this is not how I imagined life at twenty-one

I thought that I be stronger now

I thought that I be wiser now

I thought that I be whole by now

Ohhh

I’m running in circles

I’m running in circles

And I’m back where I begin

Show me the way

That leads me straight to sanity

Ohhh show me the way

That leads me straight to sanity

Ohhh show me the way

That leads me straight to sanity

Ohhh

I’m running in circles
