The Theology of Lifehouse

Sick Cycle Carousel

if shame had a face I think it would kind of look like mine
if it had a home would it be my eyes
would you believe me if I said I'm tired of this
well here we go now one more time

I tried to climb your steps
I tried to chase you down
I tried to see how low I could get down to the ground
I tried to earn my way
I tried to change this mind
you better believe that I have tried to beat this

so when will this end it goes on and on
over and over and over again
keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
till I step down from this for good

well I never thought I'd end up here never
thought I'd be standing where I am
I guess I kind of thought that it would be easier than this
I guess I was wrong now one more time

I tried to climb your steps
I tried to chase you down
I tried to see how low I could get down to the ground
I tried to earn my way
I tried to change this mind
you better believe that I have tried to beat this

so when will this end it goes on and on
over and over and over again
keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
till I step down from this
sick cycle carousel
this is a sick cycle yeah
sick cycle carousel
this is a sick cycle yeah

so when will this end it goes on and on
over and over and over again
keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
till I step down from this for good

so when will this end it goes on and on
over and over and over again
keeps spinning around I know that it won't stop
till I step down from this for good
sick cycle carousel

Now thats a pretty awesome song, don't you think. Its kind of sad when secular rock music is better then CCM when it comes to theology. This sick cycle of sin just keeps going on and on, I keep sinning over and over again. It keeps spinning around I know that this wont stop, till I die. I love metaphors, I love music. I love summer. You may get an actually deep post sometime this summer, but for now the brain is resting.

And just think...you didn't even realize that it could be taken as theological until I pointed it out today. :-)

It is such an amazing song though. Definitely my favorite.
