Vicious Cycle

from Let Me Take You Home by L. Mounts

/

lyrics

I sit there and watch the people
Stare into spinning glass eyes
They say money can't buy happiness
But some quarters can wash the stains out till it tries

No one wants to be there
It was never destiny
They just stand there watching, waiting
For something to pleasantly

Put a smile on their face
Even if it's just for a couple of days
Until they head back here again
Wash, dry, repeat till the end

There's a tangle in their heartstrings
That they can't seem to get undone
There's a certain array of misery
Overcoming everyone

They take their little carts
Fill them up and stroll away
Put their loads in their dressers
That's enough cleansing for today

They'll get to their minds tomorrow
And maybe souls next week
It's dysfunctional social activity
They just wash, dry, repeat

There is no redeeming
Mental value from repeating
Vicious cycle, brain and mind
Body's washed up, left to dry

Encaged by people, distressed by life
Go there for comfort, then leave and die
