Song Lyrics

I'm not the one
That you'll be shootin' for
I'm not the one
Who's coming back for more
(You know why)
We've been through this so many times
(You know why)
It's never clear it's pantomime

Goin' 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round
Never lettin' down

I'm not the one
Whose memory you still keepin'
I'm not the one
Who's talkin' in your sleep
(You know why)
I don't have to tell you twice
(You know why)
Knew you when you weren't so nice

Goin' 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round
Never touchin' down

I'm not the one
That you'll be breakin' in
And I'm not the one
That you'll be takin' in
(You know why)
Tried and tried to crack the shell
(You know why)
When you fake it's hard to tell

Goin' 'round and 'round
'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round

'Cause you can't get on your feet
Goin' 'round and 'round
Still takin' all the heat
Goin' 'round and 'round

('Round and 'round)
Goin' 'round and 'round
('Round and 'round and 'round and 'round)
Goin' 'round and 'round
('Cause you can't get on your feet)

('Round and 'round)
(Still takin' all the heat)
('Round and 'round)
('Cause you can't get on your feet)
('Round and 'round)
(Still takin' all the heat)

('Round and 'round)
('Cause you can't get on your feet)
('Round and 'round)
(Still takin' all the heat)
