Lyrics

How come I end up where I started

Expressing confusion about returning to the starting point or origin.

How come I end up where I belong

Reflecting on the paradox of ending up in a familiar place despite efforts.

Won't take my eyes off the ball again

Committing to focus on a goal or task, possibly in a repetitive cycle.

You reel me out then you cut the string

Describing a situation where someone lures and then abandons or betrays.


How come I end up where I started

Reiterating the frustration of returning to the starting point despite efforts.

How come I end up where I belong

Expressing a sense of belonging despite the unexpected return.

Won't take my eyes off the ball again

Reaffirming the commitment to stay focused on a goal or task.

You reel me out then you cut the string

Highlighting a repeated pattern of being misled and abandoned.


You used to be alright

Questioning the transformation from being okay to an undesirable state.

What happened?

Did your string come undone

One by one

One by one

Repeating the idea of a gradual, step-by-step decline.

It comes to us all

Reflecting on the inevitability of experiencing challenging moments.

It's as soft as your pillow

Comparing a difficult situation to the softness of a pillow, perhaps hinting at irony.


You used to be alright

Echoing the sentiment of questioning a negative change in oneself or others.

What happened?

Continuing to inquire about the reasons behind the undesirable transformation.

Etcetera etcetera

Introducing miscellaneous or additional details that may contribute to the situation.

Facts for whatever

Mentioning facts or information without clear relevance, adding to the confusion.

Fifteen steps

Referring to a specific number of steps, possibly indicating a structured process or journey.

Then a shear drop
