The Round Room Lyrics

I took the conversation about as far as it could go

With only intermittent access to my frontal lobe

I heard someone said these pills wake you from Death

And leave a burning hole where you keep your dread

For a while nothing happens

Then the whole room starts collapsing

In a way it's like it was before

Then I hear the sound of clapping

Even fainter sounds of tapping

And feel made up just like before

Oh this weird room goes

On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

Exit the apartment then against their good advice

And head in the direction that is least devoid of light

Don't know who's up ahead and if they're living or they're dead

And if it even matters with what's in my head

For a while nothing happens

Then the whole world starts collapsing

In a way it's like it was before

Then I hear the sound of clapping

Even fainter sounds of tapping

And feel made up just like before

Just this side of nausea

I give in to the euphoria

But don't make it to the river shore

Pretend I'm a better man

Than one who chose to lie in sand

And one who's not allowed inside their store

Oh, this dumb world goes on and on

On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
