They walk around in circles
Not knowing where to go
Searching for the answers
Waiting to be shown.

Turning every corner
They hope to see the light
Walking in the darkness
All they see is night.

Bearing all their burdens
heavily they walk
When it comes time for sharing
Their emotions lock.

Time passes by so slowly
Everyday's the same
Walking in the circles
Bearing blame and shame.

Very well done, Musicmaker, and so sad too.

I'm grabbing my hat and coat
I'm leaving the cat a note
Quick call me a ferry boat-getting out of town!

I completely agree with Elizabeth. That stanza is magnificant.
