The Amulet (2017)












Lustration lyrics - Circa Survive

Fed by hand and caught with force
Our bed, sweet death will foreclose on everybody's tongues
She'll freeze and break your heart
My love who's left to console the choir

I don't want to be the one
I don't want to be the anchor on your chest
Unkept
Have you ever been asleep
I was only keeping up to see you weep
Unfold

Inside the catacomb
The marbles colder than ice
Our match is damp
Lit with a separate hand
I see into your world
You make no effort to hide
The tourniquet
Candles in a salt ring will dance
You don't have to repent tonight at all

Tongues will freeze and break apart
My god who's left to concede the cross

I don't want to be the one
I don't want to see the moment you forget
Unfed
In the sharpening of teeth
You will have to feel the grit of the concrete vibrate

Beneath your finger nails they'll find small pieces of stone
You'll face the sun
Cut with the pressure point
Inside the catacomb
The marbles colder than ice
Our match is damp
Lit with a separate hand
I see into your world
You make no effort to hide
The tourniquet
Candles in a salt ring will dance
You don't have to repent tonight
Stare gaze in the moon light
We'll burn
You don't have to defend the light at all

My love who's left to crawl inside your passage way
My god who's left to cross inside your pressure stare

Never Tell A Soul lyrics - Circa Survive

Don't waste your light on me, it'll be dead
Process has made a gape devoided
And amputate the legs off all the non-believers
We'll forgive your past if you can play along

Omission of the dream
What's worse we'll never walk away
(just let me know when it happens)
We pushed over the seams
I'll never tell a soul

We threw our crutches of weight into the ambry
Where we wait for the others to wake
We shuffle out of the bedroom
Into the gavel with a cross at the end of it

We don't pray cause we don't give a shit
We won't beg no we won't pray
We don't pray cause we don't give a shit
We won't beg cause we don't care

The moderate way we made
Our trade the deafening call
I've lost my world
Saddened the gold box can't be locked
I siphon from you in ways I'm not

Did you take it on alone
It's the opposite feel
We all forget pieces of rosary beads
Did you give yourself away?
As much as I need petrified pieces
Of rectory sheets
Holding me afloat

We pushed our mountains of weight into the ambry
Where we wait for the others to wake
We shuffle out of the bedroom and
Into the gavel with a cross at the end of it

We suffocate to see
We fade, it won't be long
Audition all within me
It can't, it can't be gold

Premonition Of The Hex lyrics - Circa Survive

Suppression makes a weight
That strips the life of everything
Too scared to walk away
Down in your heart
The image of a life

You're dying just to be there
Just crying on your knees

Be weary of the things you want
(The thorn in your paw)
You can't predict what's coming
(You crave)
Unlock your fingers from my hand
You never see the things you have
(There's always a way)
Slice up and not across when
(To change)
You're trying to make the deepest cut

Illusion makes a gape
That kills the flow of everything
Too dumb to walk away
Down in your mind
You never even tried

You're dying just to be there
Just crying on your knees

You couldn't say her name in a single way
You never found the time
She didn't make a sound when she hit the ground
In the image of her life

Be weary of the things you want
(The thorn in your paw)
You can't predict what's coming
(You crave)
Unlock your fingers from my hand
You never see the things you have
(There's always a way)
Slice up and not across when
(To change)
You're trying to make the deepest cut

Be careful of what you desire
(The thorn in your paw)
You can't predict what's coming
(You crave)
Unlock your fingers from my hand
You never give the things you want
(There's always a way)
Slice up and not across when
(To change)
You're trying to make the deepest cut

Tunnel Vision lyrics - Circa Survive

Strewn
Laid out flare and cold
Give up all your remnants of silver
Sandstone and clay
We'll never be reluctant
Through the famine and fame
We'll always be the same

You made your move
When I wasn't ready yet
Look out at what you did
With your tunnel vision
You left your mark
Heartless, without a key
Move fast and step aside
Should be nothing to it

Flume fade out
Sad and old
Still I call
Your desired simplicity
Sandstone and clay
We'll never be reluctant
Through the famine and fame
We'll always be the same

You made your move
When I wasn't ready yet
Look out at what you did
With your tunnel vision
You left your mark
Heartless, without a key
Move fast and step aside
Should be nothing to it

At Night It Gets Worse lyrics - Circa Survive

I can't afford to seize
I never stay for too long
And when the whistle blows
Every light goes out in order

Waking up inside a profane dream
And someone innocent
Pull the storage cell is empty

Your straining stare
Cut from every other home
In the sequence of our unidentified
Impersonator
Cause you know just what to say and
By any other name is still a lie

The amethyst will beat into your skull
Cum pouring out

Hoping to see why you don't show
Any emotion you fear that's
Breaking you open to feel our
Wild Force

Whatever comes of this
I want to
Fill the big frame
Beside your prison bed
Every eye sealed shut with resentment
I can't afford to speak
In this nauseous daze
Once the ice is broke
Every hand you held will pull you down

Are we made like this
By a raging fool
We were wrong and we resisted our own charge
Are we trained like this? Bite the giving hand
We were lost and there was no place we could go

Your straining stare
Cut from every other home
In the sequence of our unidentified
Impersonator
Cause you know just what to say and
By any other name is still a lie

The amethyst will beat into your skull
Cum pouring out

Hoping to see why you don't show
Any emotion you fear
That's breaking you open to feel our
Wild Force

Crawl out my shell
Change
When will I get a chance
Don't lose your nerve again
When will
I get a chance

Crawl out my shell (out in the dark I can hear someone singing along with us)
Change
When will I get a chance (I never thought that could be on my own again)
Don't lose your nerve again (now all this time I spent waiting for something to change is gone)
When will (never escaping the echoing sound of your locked engage)
I get a chance
I might as well be dead
When will
I get to it

Stay lyrics - Circa Survive

Stall drawn out in stains
Whisper your truth
Then I had the lidocaine watered down so
You could feel it all
Bending your lie

Tried to have too much at once
And that's the way everything stayed
And I heard you claim to be
Something like an expert in pain
So let's make believe

Sharp
Don't take too long cleaning your wounds
She kept the lector in the waterfall to wash it all away
Bending your lie

Storming disarray choking on advant
Truly destined to be blood shot
We suffocate
In your arms

Tried to make everything stay
Love
But I can't convince you to change
And I heard you claim to be
Something like an expert in pain
So let's make believe

Rites Of Investiture lyrics - Circa Survive

Fiending children writhe
The cradle cap will fall
Rings attach the hands
Shadow black and cold
Etching out a space
Forge the thumbprint
Fake the name
Leave without a trace
Spark the friction
Breath to the edge

Stare into the tunnels eyes
Nature is cruel
Make everyone pay
This road will
Lead you to the end
Pacing the room
Forgetting the rules

Dry rust teaming from the lip
Arms will make the gate
Buckle from the weight

Fiending wet nurse writhe
It echoes through the night
String attached to cans
We digging with our hands
Etching out a space
Forge the thumbprint
Fake the name
Leave without a trace
Spark the friction
Breath to the edge

You're pushing for weeks before the day
Beware
Mirror
You've got the right to stay sedate
You panicked, depressed
Corroborated
In time you'll know
You've got the right to stay sedate
Oh Oh
Don't shake the alter
We tasted blood
We tasted blood

Dry rust teaming from the lip
Arms will make the gate
Buckle from the weight
Blind wince tear away the lips
Legs to push the weight
Heavy through the gate

The Hex lyrics - Circa Survive

Sacred fall
I forgive nothing
Weathered hands
Keeping me still
Flinch in the fluorescent light
Sing to the dead
Ransom the last of the meat
You'd never love
Enough

Pressing

Vibrant running down the stairs
Fire off the warning shot so everyone's aware
Fragments dance upon the ledge
High above the sleeping giant circling the edge

Sacrifice
I recall loving
Crows feet eyes
Keeping me alive

Sent to the gallows to see if you could believe it all
Ransom the last of the meat you'd never love enough

Overwhelm
I've been seeing extra light
You'll be sorry
Even if you have to fight

Pressing

Blood shot a million miles away
Tamper with the sleeping giant laughing all the way
Promise running down your leg
Who will sound the mourning bell so
Everyone's awake

Flesh And Bone lyrics - Circa Survive

Caught in the side swipes attention roulette
We already paid our debt
Labeled the outline particularly well
And manage to keep our place
Itching your skin till it's swollen and red
We never remember the price
Holding your heels just to balance the weight
Like only a liar can shake

And you show in a way
Right through my hands despite my place
Until you woke from a trance
Echo my fear, it brought you here
So we can fade out

Sentencing might be a glorious stay
We're skipping the extra steps
Void the arrangement to bury the change
I'll never be honest again
Oh at least you act so well
You're still guilty in your home
Sirens speak over your vale
I release all you felt

And you show in a way
Right through my hands despite my place
Until you woke from a trance
Echo my fear, it brought you here
So we can fade out

It's weighing me down
It's crushing me down
It's wearing me out
Oh oh, oh oh

Itching your skin till it's swollen and red
We never remember the price
The ossuary will over flow
A stench like nobody should know

Holding your heels just to balance the weight
Like only a liar can shake
Taken by the garden snake
A sound like nobody should make

The Amulet lyrics - Circa Survive

Have you kissed the ground
In service of the needless
Forgotten face
Found tucked away
And vacuum black
This ghost has been with you
All along

My voice is lost, inherently violent
We already made our casket stand
Trust when you're dead
You wanted it so bad
That you didn't see how fucked it was
All the pulses were a line
Anesthetize you waste away
In the city you wept a grave
Decay

Drilled to the chest
The amulet receives our
Forgotten face
And in its place
The mirror scar
Has grown
And lost its feel long ago

My voice is lost, inherently violent
We already made our casket stand
Trust when you're dead
You wanted it so bad
That you didn't see how fucked it was
All the pulses were a line
Anesthetize you waste away
In the city you wept a grave
Decay

You disrupt the phase
We can speak in opposites
Intersected hands decay
(You're always on your knees on time, always on your way out)
The mirror starts to fade
We out wait the revenant
(You're always on your knees on time, always on your way out)
Intersected eyes
Decay

Dark Pools lyrics - Circa Survive

Under the door there's a pulse vibration
In motion
I worry not for the thief, I know you gave up
On us

Your back slides, so peaceful for you
With so much further to bend
Defect in my face
I never thought there would be so many diseased
Asleep

Your instincts so ever sequent
How many other would move

Defend our beautiful form
Your indecent pushing me to stay
You couldn't save your breath
In time

Under the gun and the waves start pulling you in
In my head
I worry not for the thief, I know who you are
To us

Your bullshit, so easy for you
And everybody can tell
And I can see perfectly clear
Just how the story will end

Defend our beautiful form
Your indecent pushing me to stay
You couldn't save your breath
In time, a glorious rose
You elevate forcing me to change
You couldn't save yourself
Surrender

Your bullshit, so easy for you
And everybody can tell
And I can't see perfectly clear
Just how the story will end

Indra's Net lyrics - Circa Survive

Fly past the cordial glance
Free from the same sleep routine
You were stranded all to glow
Tease the pattern an inch before
Splinter the entrance, collapse

Forever deflate this satchel, digging out
In order to keep this form

Now we imitate your grandeur
Killing stride
In effort to keep your conscience weighted

Candor of the passions
Reveal the answers in our mind
Under the neon light
Between the movements
We're on the outside looking in
And that is all you're worth
You're worth

Different from what you want
Lured by the stained glass routine
You were handed all my time
Lick the granite, lazy eye
Deflect the entrance, connect

I wouldn't commit your arriving
Shallow wind
In order to keep you sane

Now we imitate your garden
Pitchfork smile
In effort to keep your conscience weighted

Now all of your tremors slingshot emotion
Push it off, can't get away, disseminate
Now elect your dermal, skin is resistant
Fake it all, can't get away, disseminate
Your blood pressure licks so that you're dead
Your blood pressure, blood pressure

Candor of the passions
Reveal the answers in our mind
Under the neon light
Between the movements
We're on the outside looking in
And that is all you're worth
Under the neon light
And that is all you're worth
You're worth
