Lyrics

Been swinging round in circles, looking for the way

Searching aimlessly, trying to find the right path

Fleeing from the time when she wanted me to stay

Avoiding the moment when she wanted a commitment

My world is swirling round, this time I know it well

Feeling disoriented, but recognizing the situation

Our love is coming down again

The relationship is deteriorating once again


Then I realize inside me, I've had myself all wrong

Realizing a self-misunderstanding and lack of strength

This time I know for certain, I've never been that strong

Being certain about personal weakness

The moment you remember, those times you stop to think

Reflecting on past moments, realizing the fragility of love

Our love will come undone again

Anticipating the breakdown of love


But with demons sitting at my side

Battling inner struggles or challenges

An angels come to ask me why

An angel questioning decisions, seeking reasons

And slowly I give up inside to say

Surrendering internally to admit a difficult truth

To feel alive, I'd give it all away

Willing to sacrifice everything for the feeling of being alive


Destructive words to make it so

Using hurtful words to achieve a certain outcome

But none of this is you you know

Acknowledging that the actions don't represent the true self


Another year, another week, another set of summer sheets

Passage of time and routine in a relationship

Another 'we should hang out again soon'

Mentions a casual promise to meet again

Another drink, another kiss

Another round of shared intimacy


And with demons sitting at my side

Continued struggle with inner demons

Another angel asks me why

Another inquiry from an angel about choices made

And it doesn't take too much to say

Easily admitting the truth about giving up for feeling alive

To feel alive, I'd give it all away

Reiterating the willingness to sacrifice everything


Destructive words to make it so

Using destructive words to shape reality

But none of this is (I'd give it all away) you, you know

Clarifying that these actions don't truly represent oneself


Again and again and again

Repetition of facing similar situations


Then she's sitting at my side,

Another encounter with an angel

An angel's come to ask me why

Questioning decisions with another angelic presence

And it takes nothing to say

No hesitation in admitting the willingness to sacrifice

To feel alive, I'll give it all away

Expressing the commitment to give everything away


I'll give it all away

Repeated affirmation of the willingness to sacrifice

I'll give it all away

Final affirmation of giving everything away
