Circles Around This Town

歌曲歌詞

I swear I don't know how I trusted

A Montero with the AC busted

A couple bad demos on a burned CD

Would take me all the way to Tenneesse

I showed up to the new apartment

First month's last month's two deposits

Hadn't heard the sound of a door slam yet

Thank god I was an optimist

I drove circles around this town

Tryin' to write circles around this town

Tryna say somethin' with meanin'

Somethin' worth singin' about

I've been kind and I've been ruthless

Yeah got here but the truth is

Thought when I hit it it'd all look different

But I still got the pedal down

Drivin' circles around this town

So many times I thought about leavin'

Got my a*s kicked tryin' to compete with

Everybody else's ones that got away

Hung around long enough to catch a break

A couple hundred songs and the ones that finally worked

Was the one about a car and the one about a church

That I wrote

Drivin' circles around this town

Tryin' to write circles around this town

Tryna say somethin' with meanin'

Somethin' worth singin' about

I've been kind and I've been ruthless
