lyrics

GO AROUND

This desperate behavior is my vice
I find myself grasping for the lifesaver
Even in a most peaceful situation
I’m am convinced of no peace

I go around, I go around making no-meat excuses
I go around and about, twisting my head into knots
I go around and I suffocate my good intentions
Oh won’t you tell me when’s the last time I made
A practical suggestion

How do I rehearse this indignation?
Perhaps with a haughty glance, or an insincere invitation
I’m getting held up in all the trivial things while meaningful communication
Lies just beyond my means

So I go around, I go around making no-meat excuses
I go around and about, twisting my head into knots
I go around and I suffocate my good intentions
Oh won’t you tell me when’s the last time

I wish that I could be a little bit wiser
I could refrain from getting into mayhem
Now I am shrinking from all of my illusions
Don’t mind my head; tomorrow I’ll cloud up again

This desperate behavior is my vice
I find myself grasping for the lifesaver
Even in a most peaceful situation
I’m am convinced of no peace

I go around, I go around making no-meat excuses
I go around and about, twisting my head into knots
I go around and I suffocate my good intentions
Oh won’t you tell me when’s the last time I made
A practical suggestion
