Round and Round
Highly Suspect Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I walked home from my neighbor's house
Though I knew that the sun would return soon
When she left, she didn't say goodbye
She just goes, easily round and round
Easily round and round, she goes
It gets hard once you know
Someday, someday it ends
That it's got your soul, your soul
And there ain't no use in hiding now
You just let go, lose control
And I can't wait to get back to my place
Where I was born, before I was born
Easily round and round
Easily round and round, she goes
Easily round and round, she goes
Til I was born, before I was born
The lyrics to Highly Suspect's song Round and Round depict a man reflecting on a failed relationship. He wakes up on the couch after spending the night at his neighbor's house and walks home alone, knowing that the sun will rise soon. The woman he was with left without saying goodbye, and the man has come to terms with the fact that their relationship was just going in circles. She moves on easily, while he is left with a heavy heart.
As the song progresses, the man acknowledges that the relationship was consuming him and had taken over his soul. He knows that it's best to let go and lose control rather than hiding and pretending everything is fine. He yearns to go back to his roots and be who he was before the relationship took over his life.
Overall, the lyrics of Round and Round explore the themes of heartbreak, loss, and seeking redemption. It's a relatable tale of how a person can become lost in a relationship and lose themselves in the process.

You know you're a fucking good band when your bass player can sing lead vocals while the lead singer sings backup
@mascottie
Fat and the lead singer can play the hell out of a guitar!

It's much better raw... saw em play it live in Denver last night and it was amazing... I'll be going to every concert of theirs that is near, and it'd be totally worth it just for this song. I don't mind waiting to see it like they played last night. You have to attend one of their shows. One of the best I've ever seen and tickets were 30 bucks general admission
