Santigold - Walking in a Circle Lyrics

Walking in a circle
I must have overshot my destiny
Keep hitting the hurdles
They drive them mothers right into me
Think I'm a sadist need no rescue
Feel like I'm buying into something
When you're in you, just accept the order
You know it's futile now to turn around

Walking in a circle
Not gon' let them get the best of me
My magic is eternal, I got some tricks, I keep 'em up my sleeve
Hey zombie, look at what it's come to
You're living in an empty dream
And here I am, right here among you
Awake, but don't know what it means

I'm here on my own and here they come
I'm Hades, ride home tonight
Here they come to spite

When the lights go out
I am a seer and I know my way out
I always hate it that they make it so hard, complicated
Only when the lights go out
When the lights go out
I disappear and I know what it's all about
It's overrated, the upgrade is oh, suffocates you
Only when the lights go out

Walking in a circle
Walking in a circle
Walking in a circle, walking in a circle

Walking in a circle
Not gon' let them get the best of me
My magic is eternal, I got some tricks, I keep 'em up my sleeve
Hey zombie, look at what it's come to
You're living in an empty dream
And here I am, right here among you
Awake, but don't know what it means

When the lights go out
I am a seer and I know my way out
I always hated that they make it so hard, complicated
Only when the lights go out
When the lights go out
I disappear and I know what it's all about
It's overrated, the upgrade is oh, suffocates you
Only when the lights go out

Walking in a circle
Walking in a circle
Walking in a circle
walking in a circle
Walking in a circle
Walking in a circle, walking in a circle

Now every time I turn around
I can't tell if I'm near or far
Been searching for it sometime now
Still no light ahead of me, still no light ahead of me
If I built a fortress, will they call me queen?
If it's built of lies it won't mean a thing
Nobody's counting 'round here no more
Out of touch, what we aiming for
Out of touch, what I came here for?

When the lights go out
I am a seer and I know my way out
I always hated that they make it so hard, complicated
Only when the lights go out
When the lights go out
I disappear and I know what it's all about
It's overrated, the upgrade is oh, suffocates you
Only when the lights go out
