“Circles” is a song where MAX is speaking to his current partner during an argument. This an argument they constantly have, and just make up afterward. MAX seems very hopeful that he can remind his partner that they can make it out of the argument with their relationship intact.
The song is mostly...
[Verse 1]
Rubbing off your tears on your sleeve (Your sleeve)
Telling me to take a step back
Reaching out your hand with my keys in it
Don't tell me it's over, it's not over
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, we fixed this before
It drives you crazy, I'm sorry
[Chorus]
We keep runnin' in circles
I hate that I hurt you
We still have a heartbeat
Don't give up on me
Say a lotta things we don't mean
We can start again, baby, don't leave
Just another one of our cycles
[Verse 2]
Here we are again, in the rain, oh
'Bout to throw your ring on the tracks (On the tracks)
Right under the very same train
Where I told you I loved you
So don't tell me it's over, no, no
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, we fixed this before
It drives you crazy, I'm sorry
[Chorus]
We keep runnin' in circles
I hate that I hurt you
We still have a heartbeat
Don't give up on me
Say a lotta things we don't mean
We can start again, baby, don't leave
Just another one of our cycles
[Bridge]
We'll come back around
We'll come back around
We'll come back around
We'll come back around
End of the day, it was the same
Oh, we'll come back around
We'll come back around
[Chorus]
We keep runnin' in circles
I hate that I hurt you
We still have a heartbeat
Don't give up on me
Say a lotta things we don't mean
We can start again, baby, don't leave
Just another one of our cycles
