Hanging Around Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wonder what it's like seeing through your eyes
You've offered me to have a try but I was always late
The filters that I use give me an excuse
I take away what's real, I feel it and it blows my fuse

[Chorus]
I hang around for another round
I'm hanging around for another round
I'm hanging on to the same old song
I hang around for another round
Until something stops me

[Verse 2]
I wonder what it's like walking by your side
To think before I talk and to move at the same speed as you walk
I wanna have a way to keep me in your state
I'm watching from above, I love it but it's not for me

[Chorus]
I hang around for another round
I'm hanging around for another round
I'm hanging on to the same old song
I hang around for another round
Until something stops me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
