Backstory:
Needy Colony is a fascinating saga of five college roommates who found solace and camaraderie in music amid their chaotic academic and personal lives. Based in the bustling city of Chicago, the band consists of Dave (vocalist and lyricist), Sam (lead guitarist), Aaron (bassist), Alex (drummer), and Emily (keyboardist). The band was officially formed in 2013 after a successful impromptu gig at a local university bar. Their music, which started as a mere outlet for their college stress, soon attracted a cult following in the local circuit, leading to their emergence as one of the most sought-after bands in the city. The name “Needy Colony” was a tongue-in-cheek reference to their dorm room, which was always swarming with friends and classmates seeking their advice, help, or just their company.

Title:
“Stuck in a Revolving Door”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
C Am F G
Wandering through this crowded street,
C Am F G
Every single face is just a blur.
C Am F G
I’m just a pawn in the game of deceit,
C Am F G
Feels like I’m stuck in a revolving door.

(Chorus)
F G C Am
Lost in the noise, finding my voice,
F G C Am
In the chaos, I hear your call.
F G C Am
Caught in the spin, amidst the din,
F G C Am
You’re the one thing that makes sense at all.

(Verse 2)
C Am F G
We’re all just stars with borrowed light,
C Am F G
Trying to navigate through the night.
C Am F G
In the crowd, I find my solitude,
C Am F G
Feels like I’m stuck in a revolving door.

(Chorus)
F G C Am
Lost in the noise, finding my voice,
F G C Am
In the chaos, I hear your call.
F G C Am
Caught in the spin, amidst the din,
F G C Am
You’re the one thing that makes sense at all.
