If shame had a face I think it would kind of look like mine
If it had a home would it be my eyes
Would you believe me if I said I'm tired of this
Well here we go now one more time

I tried to climb your steps
I tried to chase you down
I tried to see how low I could get down to the ground
I tried to earn my way
I tried to change this mind
You better believe that I have tried to beat this

So when will this end it goes on and on
Over and over and over again
Keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
Till I step down from this for good

Well I never thought I'd end up here never
Thought I'd be standing where I am
I guess I kind of thought that it would be easier than this
I guess I was wrong now one more time

I tried to climb your steps
I tried to chase you down
I tried to see how low I could get down to the ground
I tried to earn my way
I tried to change this mind
You better believe that I have tried to beat this

So when will this end it goes on and on
Over and over and over again
Keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
Till I step down from this
Sick cycle carousel
This is a sick cycle yeah
Sick cycle carousel
This is a sick cycle yeah

So when will this end it goes on and on
Over and over and over again
Keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
Till I step down from this for good

So when will this end it goes on and on
Over and over and over again
Keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
Till I step down from this for good
Sick cycle carousel
Sick cycle carousel
Sick cycle carousel
Sick cycle carousel



Behind the Song:
'It's about my relationship with my girlfriend. There was a specific time when we felt the struggles of going through a relationship, of trying to communicate and going through all the things you go through to get to that point of real depth. I wrote the song during the most crucial time when we were either going to break up, or continue our relationship.' - Jason Wade (Lifehouse)
