A Nearly Perfect Circle
Cynicism

Alright, this is intended to be sarcastic, I'm not attempting to pass judgment on anyone and it's hard to explain how it's sung, so I'll just leave it as is.

"Reciprocity"

Awake. The clock.
It's time, get up and walk
If your feet can hold you up...
Out to the dark
Oh, rabid, dreary life
Someday soon, we'll fix the night
Procrastinate. Debate.
Self-deprecate. Negate
Waste your time, the blame can wait
The cliff is close, you sure you're ready?
Of course, no worries!
You've washed your sins away...

Sunrise...Sunset...Reset!
Congratulations!!!!
It's a new day for everyone!
Wipe your nose
Wash your clothes
Let that crimson run
Hey buddy!
Don't worry!
Forgiven

Excellent, that cycle's starting to come in real nice
Across your back, across your eyes
It spells out quite clearly on what you lean
Irresponsibility
Homemade halo falling like a dead leaf
So tell me quick, what would you have it be:
A leaning post, a cane that helps you stand?
Or an unreflective river...in which to wash your hands?

(Chorus)

Recipru? Recipra?
What could that word be?
Recipri? Recipro?
Reciprocity? Oh, there it is...
Rationalize, justify
Your release from reality
Simply to avoid having to see yourself
As a human being

Sunrise...Sunset...You forget
Everything
You let all of your mistakes fade
To nothing
Start again
Begin a new end
You're still good at heart...
Hey! My buddy!
You're not

I really liked this. I could actually image how they could be sung. Not sure if it's the same as you would really do it, but it sounded good in my head.
