This Wheel

I’ve forgotten all I’ve learned
and I’ve spent all that I’ve earned
Still I’m running in this race
'Cause the only thing that scares me is the thought of second place
I feel like this wheel might
stop and throw me off
I feel like this wheel might
stop and throw me off
It’s a wonder I’m alive
After all the ways you’ve shown me how to die
Beg your pardon if I gloat
But look at all the things I’ve done despite your foot upon my throat
I feel like this wheel might
stop and throw me off
I feel like this wheel might
stop and throw me off
What can I do?
When every hand you’re dealing is the same?
What can I do?
I'd rather quit the player than the game
And I’m not crazy
Baby it’s the world that’s gone insane
There’s too much echo in the chamber dear
Too many voices in my brain
Take a moment, take a bow
Take a look at all the shit you’ve ruined now
It doesn’t matter, it’s No big deal
Life is simple when you’re seated at the center of the wheel
I feel like this wheel might
stop and throw me off
I feel like this wheel might
stop and throw me off
This wheel just keeps spinning
The damn thing just keeps spinning
Round and round and round
This wheel just keeps spinning
Come on and get your sin in
