Around a Light

Violence brewing, violence brewing
I can feel it in the air
The sun’s sure hot, violence is brewing
And I can feel it everywhere
As I head into the winding road
And I remembered I was told
To soak yourself into despair
And don’t ever wonder why
I’ve been spinning
I can’t win and
I’m hanging all around a light
The sun’s sure hot, lilacs are in bloom
And I can smell them on you dear
Now what you been doing?
I’ve been stewing, I haven’t seen you for a couple of years
And I laid into the highway’s curve
What I hold when I swerve
I looked, my eyes beyond the path
And I didn’t wonder why
I’ve been spinning
I can’t win and
I’m hanging all around a light
Around the bend, see you there
Around the bend, a dead end
Around the bend,
When you get drunk you look so great
But it’s too late, I’m fine
I’ve been wishing
There was someone who remembered me
And did not wonder why
Or what terrible luck
I’ve been spinning
I can’t win and
I’m hanging all around a light
Around a light
