Lyrics
0:20Sometimes i think this cycle never ends
0:24We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
0:29And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth
0:33The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse
0:39But if i move my place in line i'll lose
0:48And i have waited the anticipation's got me glued
0:57I am waiting for something to go wrong
1:01I am waiting for familiar resolve
1:17Sometimes it seems that i don't have the skills to recollect
1:19The twists and turns of plots that turned us from lovers to friends
1:25I'm thinking i should take that volume back up off the shelf
1:28And crack it's weary spine and read to help remind myself
1:35But if i move my place in line i'll lose
1:43And I have waited the anticipation's got me glued
1:52I am waiting for something to wrong
1:56I am waiting for familiar resolve
2:01I am waiting for another repeat
2:05Another diet fed by crippling defeat
2:10And i am waiting for that sense of relief
2:15I am waiting for you to flee the scene
2:19As if you held in your hand the smoking gun
2:24And on the floor lay the one you said you loved
2:29And it's strange
2:43They are basically the same
2:44So i don't ask names anymore
2:45Sometimes i think this cycle never ends
3:05We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again
3:09And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth
3:13The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse
3:23The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse
Sometimes i think this cycle never ends We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse But if i move my place in line i'll lose And i have waited the anticipation's got me glued I am waiting for something to go wrong I am waiting for familiar resolve Sometimes it seems that i don't have the skills to recollect The twists and turns of plots that turned us from lovers to friends I'm thinking i should take that volume back up off the shelf And crack it's weary spine and read to help remind myself But if i move my place in line i'll lose And I have waited the anticipation's got me glued I am waiting for something to wrong I am waiting for familiar resolve I am waiting for another repeat Another diet fed by crippling defeat And i am waiting for that sense of relief I am waiting for you to flee the scene As if you held in your hand the smoking gun And on the floor lay the one you said you loved And it's strange They are basically the same So i don't ask names anymore Sometimes i think this cycle never ends We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again And it seems by the time that i have figured what it's worth The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse
