This Time Around by The Small Calamities Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’ve been thinking of all of the times that I started and all that I’ve had to be thankful or angry about
And I shut up my mouth, and I take in the city and put it back out

[Verse 2]
It’s so long to create what it’s quick to destroy, I’ve been thinking ‘bout gold
I could buy a house down in Detroit, if I wanted to be there
I only want to be somewhere


[Chorus]
They say that you gotta know where to go to
They say that you gotta know where to stay away from
They say if you know where you’re going then you’ll be fine...
Well, I’ll be fine this time around

[Verse 3]
I’ve been thinking of all of the Thanksgiving faces
And thank you for asking, I have been fine, how are you?
Please take your time ‘cause in only a moment I’ll go and take mine
It was prisons, peninsulas, penance and pain
It was days in the darkness to learn it again and again, and start in a new light
There in a new light
[Repeat Chorus]

[Bridge]
And the same mistakes will pass right by again
And the things I’ve learned I try to keep them in
It’s controlled here, it’s not old yet
I will try it, and I won’t deny these walls

[Repeat Chorus]
