what is this mass confusion, this crazy way we're living
this emptiness we're passing out like candycoatedwaterdrops
i'm spilling out my thoughts, you're spilling out your guts
and i can't help but stop and think that
if the world stopped spinning
if the end was beginning
would you even notice if i wasn't there? if the world stopped spinning around
"all that's worth dying for is already dead"
an empty religion you've learned to accept
when nothing means everything, your daily routine
you go through the motions like a helpless machine
you're spinning 'round, you're spinning 'round
and i can't help wondering
you're spinning 'round, you're spinning 'round
and i can't help wondering
when the answers to everything are right in your hands
you lose your conviction, but you can't help standing
on the one thing that held you for so many years
you ask for forgiveness and hold back the tears
