[Verse 1]

Six o'clock, the crickets stop

The sky fills up with light

Was it the rain or a southbound train

That woke me up last night?

It's just this game, makes me insane

I wonder where we're going

Clear a path for earth to pass

I just wish we could stop

[Chorus]

Around in circles

Far from the ground

Waiting to put this thing down

[Verse 2]

Where was I Tuesday night?

Where was I this morning

What this is is not real life

At least it isn't boring

I can't open my mouth to speak

I can't open my eyes

Someone press pause, wrap me in gauze

And turn the lights off

[Chorus]

Around in circles

Far from the ground

Waiting to put this thing down

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

Around in circles

Far from the ground

Waiting to put this thing down

[Outro]

Whoa, oh, waiting to put this thing down
