it's been spiraling down so rapidly

and i've been frantically running around

trying to catch it and hold it up

to keep it from shattering on the ground

maybe i'll let it go and leave my mind

try not to hear the brutal sound

suppose i just stand back and watch it

let it fall wherever it's bound

then i'll close my eyes so I don't cry

draw a circle on the ground

step inside and softly sing myself a lullaby

while I just spin round and round and round
