Song
You Were Spiraling Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Far be it from me
And farther from you
To try and dig up all we left behind

Far be it from me
To doubt your wisdom
'Cause all your theories worked out right
Well I'm just glad you found the right way
'Cause God knows we had it wrong
You got everything you wanted
And all I got was a song

Far be it from me
To end this pain
By trying to laugh at all those times we cried

Far be it from me
To sound a little bitter
Knowing all we had has died

Well I'm just glad you found the right way
'Cause God knows we had it wrong




You got everything you wanted
And all I got was a song

I lost all my goodbyes when I set you free
I tried with open eyes but I couldn't see
Keep it spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Cover me and give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Cover me and give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Cover me
Why don't you ever follow me into my dreams
Bright lights running through fire and spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Cover me and give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Cover me and give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Cover me and give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Cover me and give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline
Give me a lifeline...
I tried with open eyes but I couldn't see
Bright lights running through fire and spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Keep it spiraling
Keep it spiraling

Hard Knocks. This song made the ending of this episode amazing. Really captured the sense of sadness that 27 guys were about to lose their jobs

How did Hard Knocks get so good this season? I dont ever remember them using music so poignantly.

@Sky1Luv it’s seriously impressed this year, I’m a Bengals fan but I’m rooting for Motor City Dan Campbell. He deserves a good team.
