We are all living the same way, the same way
We are escaping the same way, the same way
Circling, ooh
We are a part of the same play, the same play
We think we're making our own way, our own way
Circling, ooh

You don't have to hold your head up high

'Round and 'round
I won't run away this time
'Til you show me what this life is for
'Round and 'round
I'm not gonna let you change my mind
'Til you show me what this life is for

We are afflicted by fiction, by fiction
Building a case for eviction, eviction
Circling, ooh
Guarding a tower of ancients, of ancients
Shooting down arrows of patience, impatiently
Circling, ooh

You don't have to hold your head up high

'Round and 'round
I won't run away this time
'Til you show me what this life is for
'Round and 'round
I'm not gonna let you change my mind
'Til you show me what this life is for

All the emptiness inside you
Is hard enough to fill
Without a sense of purpose
We're setting up to fail
You don't have to make it right
Just hold your head up high

'Round and 'round
I won't run away this time (hold your head up high)
'Til you show me what this life is for (hold your head up)
'Round and 'round
I'm not gonna let you change my mind (hold your head up high)
'Til you show me what this life is for
