Song Information:

I think I posted this earlier, but for some reason it disappeared. Pretty appropriate for something that is about how I always seem to be chasing my own tail. But I took the opportunity to improve the mix a bit, and this has a bit more in the production department, with a panning lead guitar part giving it a little more room in the center for the vocal and acoustic guitar.

Song Lyrics:

Spinning my wheels

Ive been spinning my wheels for a long time now
Ive gotten used to how it feels to put the cart before the plow
If there was a magic wand to wave to move me up to the top of the heap
Once I get up to that rarified air that be a good excuse to take a giant leap.

Spinning and spinning, spinning my wheels
But everyday another truths revealed

If you ask me, theres no point berating your surroundings
Those four walls will only reflect back and the tap, tap, tapping becomes a pounding
Tiny cracks become canyons, shattered glass becomes shards
But you didnt ask me, did you? So youll have to play your own cards

Spinning and spinning, spinning my wheels
Day by day its losing its appeal

Someday Ill get somewhere or maybe Ill just turn around
and see how far Ive gotten
And marvel at all that covered ground
Look down and wonder how Ive climbed this mountain

Nobody said its easy, no that wasnt in the brochure
Hard luck seems to dog me, but who said luck was ever pure
The pendulum swings both ways sometimes it seems like youre knocking heads
But if there wasnt a way to come out on top, Id never get out of bed

Spinning and spinning, spinning my wheels
But thats what keeps it real, thats something I can feel, etc
