Let fall upon his back
The consequence of giving
Up all that he has had
To anyone who listens
In hopes that you'll let him in
Pull back the curtains
And tied up the end
Cover the harmless in all the sheep's skin
I know who you are
He wont see your hand
Reaching out for him
Never understand
Have you been waiting so long?
I know, no one, ever, gets to control your love
So why fallow anyone?
Every word he says is a lie
No one ever knows the difference
Now he needs to prove it to himself
To anyone,
To anyone who listens
In hopes that you will relieve
Pull out your wallet and show sympathy
Tell him he's everything you wish you'd be
You know who you are
(You know who you are)
He won't see your hand
Reaching out for him
Never understand
Have you been waiting so long?
I know, no one, ever, gets to control your love
So why fallow anyone?
Why fallow anyone?
He won't see your hand
Reaching out for him
Never understand
Have you been waiting so long?
I know, no one, ever, gets to control your love
He won't understand
Have you been waiting for him?
Why fallow anyone?
Phantasmagoria lyrics - Circa Survive
When I found out about the Lord I wanted more
but I never could believe
That there was something that had so much love for us
That could sit and let us bleed to death
Then she showed me all her love
And I couldn't trust
My guard was already up.
Is the foundation of beliefs that have shaped my youth?
I found out that they weren't true
At all
God, money, and women will turn you mad
Always reaching for something that you can't have
God, money, and women will bring you down
Always searching for something that's not been found
Doesn't have to be something I can see
I don't know what to believe
Doesn't have to be something I can feel
I don't know what is real
You got no say in our lives
You got no say no
You got no say in our lives
You got no say no
God, money, and women will turn you mad
Always reaching out for something that you can't have
God, money, and women will break your heart
Crush your soul, and leave you empty, and torn apart
but I never could believe
That there was something that had so much love for us
That could sit and let us bleed to death
Then she showed me all her love
And I couldn't trust
My guard was already up.
Is the foundation of beliefs that have shaped my youth?
I found out that they weren't true
At all
God, money, and women will turn you mad
Always reaching for something that you can't have
God, money, and women will bring you down
Always searching for something that's not been found
Doesn't have to be something I can see
I don't know what to believe
Doesn't have to be something I can feel
I don't know what is real
You got no say in our lives
You got no say no
You got no say in our lives
You got no say no
God, money, and women will turn you mad
Always reaching out for something that you can't have
God, money, and women will break your heart
Crush your soul, and leave you empty, and torn apart
Think Of Me When They Sound lyrics - Circa Sirvive
How long will it take,
How long will you wait for me,
I don't want to bring you down,
Any more than I have,
I just want to think you've left,
And it means everything,
How long will you wait (we won't make it out)
I can't stand to feel this brave awake (we won't make it out)
Church bells,
Church bells,
How long will you wait (we won't make it out)
How long will you wait for me (we won't make it out)
How much can you take (we won't make it out)
How long will you wait for me, dear.
How long will you wait for me,
I don't want to bring you down,
Any more than I have,
I just want to think you've left,
And it means everything,
How long will you wait (we won't make it out)
I can't stand to feel this brave awake (we won't make it out)
Church bells,
Church bells,
How long will you wait (we won't make it out)
How long will you wait for me (we won't make it out)
How much can you take (we won't make it out)
How long will you wait for me, dear.
Brother Song lyrics - Circa Survive
Every body wants to see the worst in you,
Shadowed by the actions of the path you can't undo,
Who'll get, who'll get left behind,
Who'll get, who'll get left behind,
Oh there must be a way to understand the things you do,
Without getting too close to you,
Oh I can't find a reason why you wasted all our time,
Who'll get, who'll get left behind oh,
And I won't share your anger,
It doesn't do me any good to feel,
And we can't shape our feelings the right way,
Until we learn things won't ever change no,
Oh there must be a way to understand the things you say,
Without letting it get to me,
Oh I may never get used to getting locked out of your life,
Who'll get, who'll get out alive,
And I won't share your anger,
It doesn't do me any good to feel,
And we can't shape our feelings the right way,
Until we learn things won't ever change no oh oh oh oh
Shadowed by the actions of the path you can't undo,
Who'll get, who'll get left behind,
Who'll get, who'll get left behind,
Oh there must be a way to understand the things you do,
Without getting too close to you,
Oh I can't find a reason why you wasted all our time,
Who'll get, who'll get left behind oh,
And I won't share your anger,
It doesn't do me any good to feel,
And we can't shape our feelings the right way,
Until we learn things won't ever change no,
Oh there must be a way to understand the things you say,
Without letting it get to me,
Oh I may never get used to getting locked out of your life,
Who'll get, who'll get out alive,
And I won't share your anger,
It doesn't do me any good to feel,
And we can't shape our feelings the right way,
Until we learn things won't ever change no oh oh oh oh
Bird Sounds lyrics - Circa Survive
It's so selfish to say "We won't be found out a lie."
I hope you have a good place to hide.
Someone will find you.
No one should have to live with this much stress,
killing yourself, trying to live. (And it remains)
And it remains the only meaningful mistake
but you won't let go, you don't know how to.
And every morning I begin my dreams when i'm awake
empty bird sounds are reminders
You're not awake at all.
In the most unusual of ways
It comes without summoning
You have no choice in it.
I don't think it's selfish to say
"This doesn't matter."
I can see it running through his veins
We're in the kingdom
(And it remains)
And it remains the only thing you can't explain
but you never know, it's better not to
And every morning there's a meaningful mistake
empty bird sounds, are reminders
You're not awake at all.
We must allow, we must allow to settle and stray
Now that I see, now that I see it run through your head
And it remains the only thing you can't explain
but you won't let go, you don't know how to.
And every morning there's a meaningful mistake
You're not awake at all
You're not awake at all.
I hope you have a good place to hide.
Someone will find you.
No one should have to live with this much stress,
killing yourself, trying to live. (And it remains)
And it remains the only meaningful mistake
but you won't let go, you don't know how to.
And every morning I begin my dreams when i'm awake
empty bird sounds are reminders
You're not awake at all.
In the most unusual of ways
It comes without summoning
You have no choice in it.
I don't think it's selfish to say
"This doesn't matter."
I can see it running through his veins
We're in the kingdom
(And it remains)
And it remains the only thing you can't explain
but you never know, it's better not to
And every morning there's a meaningful mistake
empty bird sounds, are reminders
You're not awake at all.
We must allow, we must allow to settle and stray
Now that I see, now that I see it run through your head
And it remains the only thing you can't explain
but you won't let go, you don't know how to.
And every morning there's a meaningful mistake
You're not awake at all
You're not awake at all.
Blood From A Stone lyrics - Circa Survive
Every moment I stand there and wait I recall
How you told me you don't care
It was there that you ruptured the seal in the wall
That time cannot repair
Letting it be what it is
It's impossible to know what you need
When you seem so emotionless
What'll bring you back to life?
Machine beware turn it back again
Just wanted to know every word that was said
So many were unclear
And I didn't notice if anything changed
Until you left me here
Setting it free with the wind
Seems impossible that we'd let it be what it is
So emotionless
What'll bring you back to life?
Machine beware turn it back again
What'll bring you back to life?
Machine beware turn it back again
Your stories never end
Our time is now suspended
I never feared man
So why won't you let me in this time?
What'll bring you back to life?
What'll bring you back?
I wanna bring you back
Your stories never end
Our time is now suspended
I never feared man
So why won't you let me in this time?
How you told me you don't care
It was there that you ruptured the seal in the wall
That time cannot repair
Letting it be what it is
It's impossible to know what you need
When you seem so emotionless
What'll bring you back to life?
Machine beware turn it back again
Just wanted to know every word that was said
So many were unclear
And I didn't notice if anything changed
Until you left me here
Setting it free with the wind
Seems impossible that we'd let it be what it is
So emotionless
What'll bring you back to life?
Machine beware turn it back again
What'll bring you back to life?
Machine beware turn it back again
Your stories never end
Our time is now suspended
I never feared man
So why won't you let me in this time?
What'll bring you back to life?
What'll bring you back?
I wanna bring you back
Your stories never end
Our time is now suspended
I never feared man
So why won't you let me in this time?
I'll Find A Way lyrics - Circa Survive
If you choose to see
Everyone is there for you to lose yourself
But nothing feels as good when you're alone
So never let it happen
Don't give into wild currents
Don't believe in callous rituals
I'll always want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
If you choose to make
Something so particular and force its shape
Then nothing feels as good as the mistake
When you let it happen
Don't give into wild currents
Oh, I never will
Don't believe in callous rituals
I'll always want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
I'll Want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
If you try and hide it
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
If you try to deny it
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
Oh Love
You'll take me to the end
I know you will
Oh Love
You'll tear out all your hair
I know you will
I'll always want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
I want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
Everyone is there for you to lose yourself
But nothing feels as good when you're alone
So never let it happen
Don't give into wild currents
Don't believe in callous rituals
I'll always want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
If you choose to make
Something so particular and force its shape
Then nothing feels as good as the mistake
When you let it happen
Don't give into wild currents
Oh, I never will
Don't believe in callous rituals
I'll always want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
I'll Want to carry it all, love
Find a way to carry it all for you
If you try and hide it
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
If you try to deny it
You will always feel alone
You will always feel alone
Oh Love
You'll take me to the end
I know you will
Oh Love
You'll tear out all your hair
I know you will
I'll always want to carry it all, love

Sleep Underground (Demo) lyrics - Circa Survive
You play that role for years
there's nothing else
But you don't need your ears
to listen to yourself
Don't talk back,
Keep your lips closed tight
Sleep underground tonight
Sleep underground tonight
If you were meant to save me
(Sleep underground tonight)
If you were meant to save me then I didn't realize til now
This is just for you and I alone
This is just for you and I alone
This is just for you and I alone
This is just for you and I alone
Sleep underground tonight
Sleep underground tonight
This is just for you and I
there's nothing else
But you don't need your ears
to listen to yourself
Don't talk back,
Keep your lips closed tight
Sleep underground tonight
Sleep underground tonight
If you were meant to save me
(Sleep underground tonight)
If you were meant to save me then I didn't realize til now
This is just for you and I alone
This is just for you and I alone
This is just for you and I alone
This is just for you and I alone
Sleep underground tonight
Sleep underground tonight
This is just for you and I
Stare Like You'll Stay lyrics - Circa Survive
We believe to fully understand you
you must step inside
For all the reasons we can think to hate you
we want to make it right
Can't you see that everybody goes through the same thing
at different times
And all the ways that you can say we're different
you're wrong, we're alike
Just say you'll keep your eye on everyone
Take a last long look at where you are
Allowance received and I can't believe
there's anything like this
'Cause if you're half as good as you say you are
then you can prove it
Stare like you'll stay alive
if you stare like you're there
We believe to fully understand you
you must step inside
For all the reasons we can think to hate you
we want to make it right
Just say you'll keep your mind on everyone
Take a last long look at where you are
Allowance received and I can't believe
there's anything like this
'Cause if you're half as good as you say you are
Then you can prove anything to us
then you can show us how it's done
so we can show it to everyone
if you stay alive
Stare like you'll stay alive
if you stare like you're there
Stare like you'll stay alive
(we believe to fully understand you, you must step inside)
if you stare like you're there
(we believe to fully understand you, you must make it right)
you must step inside
For all the reasons we can think to hate you
we want to make it right
Can't you see that everybody goes through the same thing
at different times
And all the ways that you can say we're different
you're wrong, we're alike
Just say you'll keep your eye on everyone
Take a last long look at where you are
Allowance received and I can't believe
there's anything like this
'Cause if you're half as good as you say you are
then you can prove it
Stare like you'll stay alive
if you stare like you're there
We believe to fully understand you
you must step inside
For all the reasons we can think to hate you
we want to make it right
Just say you'll keep your mind on everyone
Take a last long look at where you are
Allowance received and I can't believe
there's anything like this
'Cause if you're half as good as you say you are
Then you can prove anything to us
then you can show us how it's done
so we can show it to everyone

Stare like you'll stay alive
if you stare like you're there
Stare like you'll stay alive
(we believe to fully understand you, you must step inside)
if you stare like you're there
(we believe to fully understand you, you must make it right)
Every Way lyrics - Circa Survive
I would find a different way to say
You're gonna have to change everything you've made
You're gonna have to reword every metaphor you'd use
So that people who are hearing aren't confused
If that's the most important thing you do
Detail every ounce of pain that you went through
Make sure you leave something down to show the way back
Make sure you leave something down to show the way back
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Inaccurate and inprecise
There is no gift without a price
I'm so mistaken, lost my direction
My souls been shaken
I would find a different way to go
There's no signs in life to guide you on that road
And if it's the most important thing you'll say
Make sure they understand
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Inaccurate and inprecise
There is no gift without a price
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
(I'm so mistaken)
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
(lost my direction)
Every way you wonder
Every way you wonder
(my soul's been shaken)
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
you are
You're gonna have to change everything you've made
You're gonna have to reword every metaphor you'd use
So that people who are hearing aren't confused
If that's the most important thing you do
Detail every ounce of pain that you went through
Make sure you leave something down to show the way back
Make sure you leave something down to show the way back
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Inaccurate and inprecise
There is no gift without a price
I'm so mistaken, lost my direction
My souls been shaken
I would find a different way to go
There's no signs in life to guide you on that road
And if it's the most important thing you'll say
Make sure they understand
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
Inaccurate and inprecise
There is no gift without a price
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
(I'm so mistaken)
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
(lost my direction)
Every way you wonder
Every way you wonder
(my soul's been shaken)
Every way you wonder if you're wrong
you are
Backmask lyrics - Circa Survive
Don't know why so much confusion
needs to be obsessed about
Under the mountain, the seeds depression
watch it disappear
Don't remind me again
It's already written
Distance always seems familiar
Nothing here can change without
listening carefully for your queue
to exchange the other lines
Late at night and call to us
building nesting in our skulls
so it can rest conveniently
conserving all the energy it takes
lower your head and take some
time to feel the sound
Surrender expectations
It's not just an explanation that we've found
Don't remind me again
It's already written
and nothing's only alive
it's already been given
Don't know why so much confusion
needs to be obsessed about
Under the mountain, the seeds depression
watch it disappear
Late at night and call to us
building nesting in our skulls
so it can rest conveniently
conserving all the energy it takes
lower your head and take some
time to feel the sound
Surrender expectations
It's not just an explanation that we've found
There's no need
There's no need to force it down
There's no need to force it down
I just need
I just need to make a sound
There's no need
There's no need to force it down
There's no need
I just want
I just want
I just wanna make a sound
There's no need
no need to force it down
needs to be obsessed about
Under the mountain, the seeds depression
watch it disappear
Don't remind me again
It's already written
Distance always seems familiar
Nothing here can change without
listening carefully for your queue
to exchange the other lines
Late at night and call to us
building nesting in our skulls
so it can rest conveniently
conserving all the energy it takes
lower your head and take some

It's not just an explanation that we've found
Don't remind me again

There's no need to force it down

There's no need
There's no need to force it down
There's no need
I just want
I just want
I just wanna make a sound
There's no need
no need to force it down
Lazarus lyrics - Circa Survive
Anything that happened when I was young
it came so measly
now all of those things are haunting me
and nothing will calm
I won't be offended if no one sees
I just wanna know what that'll mean
When I'm alone I make believe that
I'm in a different time and place where
nobody wants to know my name
and no one will recognize my face
Anything that I did way back when
it seems so long ago
Might as well have all been by accident
I've nothing left to show
I wont be offended if no one stays
I'll just blame it all on my old age
When I'm alone I make believe that
I'm in a different time and place where
nobody wants to know my name and
no one will recognize my face
2am, I'm thinking about how lucky I've been
I need to take a moment to myself
6am, I'm thinking about how lonely I've been
I need to take a moment to myself
We are alone [repeat]
it came so measly
now all of those things are haunting me
and nothing will calm
I won't be offended if no one sees
I just wanna know what that'll mean
When I'm alone I make believe that
I'm in a different time and place where
nobody wants to know my name
and no one will recognize my face
Anything that I did way back when
it seems so long ago
Might as well have all been by accident
I've nothing left to show
I wont be offended if no one stays
I'll just blame it all on my old age
When I'm alone I make believe that
I'm in a different time and place where
nobody wants to know my name and
no one will recognize my face
2am, I'm thinking about how lucky I've been
I need to take a moment to myself
6am, I'm thinking about how lonely I've been
I need to take a moment to myself
We are alone [repeat]
Strange Terrain lyrics - Circa Survive
We read the signs completely backwards
No one could see if we ended up where we needed to be
To find out how it all works with so many partners
And nobody wants nobody wants to sit behind the wheel, behind the wheel.
Whose the one pounding the gears avoiding the crowds keeping their ear to the ground ?
Oh Ive made a mistake I never learned how to get back to the place
Oh...
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am without them.
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am.
We made designs completely backwards
Nobody knows if were even close to where we need to go
To find out how it all works with so many artists
And nobody wants nobody wants to sit behind the wheel, behind the wheel.
Whose the one pounding the gears avoiding the crowds keeping their ear to the ground ?
Oh Ive made a mistake I never learned how to get back to the place
Where all our confidence kept is behind a shield only light can get through.
Where all our confidence kept is behind a shield only light can get through.
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am without them.
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am.
No one could see if we ended up where we needed to be
To find out how it all works with so many partners
And nobody wants nobody wants to sit behind the wheel, behind the wheel.
Whose the one pounding the gears avoiding the crowds keeping their ear to the ground ?
Oh Ive made a mistake I never learned how to get back to the place
Oh...
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am without them.
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am.
We made designs completely backwards
Nobody knows if were even close to where we need to go
To find out how it all works with so many artists
And nobody wants nobody wants to sit behind the wheel, behind the wheel.
Whose the one pounding the gears avoiding the crowds keeping their ear to the ground ?
Oh Ive made a mistake I never learned how to get back to the place
Where all our confidence kept is behind a shield only light can get through.
Where all our confidence kept is behind a shield only light can get through.
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am without them.
Where have all the signs gone ?
I don't know where I am.
