Desperation Lyrics by The Action Design

Desperation 7"

2010

I shut you down when you open your mouth
You should know better than that by now
You′re doubting yourself as you very well should
Everything you do is nothing good

Your eyes looking back like two black shiny coals
Their smolder is gone and your golden glow has faded
It's all so very uncomfortable
You′re so laughable, you're begging me
Please, stop stop stop
Please, stop stop

Round and round and you're back to where you began now
Whoa, round and round and you′re right back where you began now
(Desperation)
Desperation
Round and round and you′re back to where you began now
(Desperation)
Whoa, round and round and you're right back

Awake in bed, you′re so thinly spread
All your plans beginning to dissolve
You just missed your mark with your shot in the dark
Careful now, you're gonna lose it all

Your eyes looking back like two black shiny coals
Their smolder is gone and your golden glow has faded
All that′s really left is a brown bag o' bones
But you′re determined and so you're begging me
Please, stop stop stop
Please, stop stop stop

Round and round and you're back to where you began now
Whoa, round and round and you′re right back where you began now
(Desperation)
Desperation
Round and round and you′re back to where you began now
(Desperation)
Whoa, round and round and you're right back

You′ve made your impression before
Don't kill it, kill it
You deserve to be ignored
That′s how it sounds
That's how it sounds
On your way down
On your way down
That′s how it sounds

Whoa, round and round and you're back to where you began now
Whoa, round and round and you're right back where you began now
(Desperation)
Desperation
Round and round and you′re back to where you began now
(Desperation)
Whoa, round and round and you′re right back

Round and round and you're back to where you began now
Whoa, round and round and you′re right back where you began now
(Desperation)
Desperation
Round and round and you're back to where you began now
(Desperation)
Whoa, round and round and you′re right back where you began now
(Desperation)
Right back where you began now
Right back where you began now
