spinning and standing still

spinning and standing still

what can I offer
I've got nothing left
but time in the day to kill
spinning and standing still
I can't quite choose a direction
trying to build my mind
with legos and building blocks
I've ran in circles around this clock
but I'm 
spinning and standing still
it's good to see you-
you looked so good today
you love your mountain view
and I stand so far away
spinning and standing still
I've swallowed so much more
than bitter pills
I can't make you take anything
you refuse all the sweet love I bring
so, I'm,
spinning and standing still
I don't know what I want for my life
I don't know what I want for yours
but I'll watch the sun come up 
with you past midnight
I'll look at everything beige and 
see the richest green colour 
that I've ever seen
I have no idea what to do with myself
but for you, 
Oh,
I'd do anything
so I'm spinning and standing still
in one spot and cranking the wheels
oh I can't offer much
I can't offer much up
this life has taken and trashed it
I want to escape
and start it
spinning and standing still
I'd give you my life
for the cheapest of thrills
spinning and standing still
