Sitting in my armchair, thinking again and again and again
Going round in a circle - I can't get out
Then I look around, thinking day and night and day
Then you look around - there must be some explanation
And the tension
And the tension builds
And the tension
And the tension builds
Take advantage - let nothing be fantasy
How do you grow as you stunt your growth?
Nothing you say makes sense anymore
Then you look around - there must be some explanation
And the tension
And the tension builds
And the tension
And the tension builds
Sitting in my armchair, thinking again and again and again
Going round in a circle - I can't get out
Reluctant in my cold sweat, thinking day and night and day
Then you look around - there's nothing left to say
And the tension
And the tension builds
And the tension (and the tension)
And the tension builds
And the tension (and the tension)
And the tension builds
And the tension (and the tension)
And the tension builds
And the tension (and the tension)
And the tension builds
And the tension (and the tension)
And the tension builds
And the tension (and the tension)
And the tension builds
And the tension (and the tension)
And the tension builds
