BEHIND THE WORDS

 

"round" from Tishbite (Part 2), 1996

I think round is one of the songs were liz talked about her life, or possibly someone elses. I think it is about someone who  has it to heavy with their parter. Their partner has maybe done something wrong and has shattered the person's mind. The person's head is a mess but they are determinded to get back on the rails of normal life....."I will stay focused" "Yes! I will stay focused"

    "The sence of movement"
probably meaning they both have to start rebuilding this break by actually doing something, this 'doing' gives her a new sence, a sence of progress.....  "It gives me a new sence of progress," she knows there is a need to work hard at it too, she can do it, to finally get completely back to normality  and to look to the future "tells me(to this new life), I've got capacity to improve"

   
But to do all this she needs some time alone to herself, but she is saying to her partner, "Don't worry, We'll get there, you just get by, you need time too..... enjoy it" "Need Space..... enjoy it"
    Now this is where it goes meaningless ..... This person wants space because the wheel turns round??? ... it quite possibly could be that she means that you can loose it a bit sometimes, but you will return to sanity sometime, like a wheel it goes round in a cycle an there is a break somewhere but it soon returns to the stationary position, back where it started going round...... think about it......... but remember sounds change, so this could mean nothing to me tomorrow, i could think something different entirely.

thanks elizabeth for this wonderful song
