Circle II Circle - Watching In Silence lyrics



Tracks



01. Out Of Reach

In the darkness that feeds your mind
In your cavernous seething eyes
You lost some things you never could replace

Tell me why
I see the forces that drive you
Who said I?
For you it's too late to see
Tell me why
Will they make you feel righteous?
Hear the cries They'll flash their twisted faces across my screen

In a world ruled by obsession
Seeking retribution
Breathing pure aggression
A reflection of the hate that you must breed
You're out of reach
Out of reach

So you got to keep on with your sinister life
It's too late to change your mind
Your end will be violent and abrupt
Make sure what's done is done

Tell me why
I see the forces inside you
Who said I?
For you it's too late to see
Tell me why
Does it make you feel righteous?
To flash their twisted faces across my screen

In a world ruled by obsession
Seeking retribution
Breathing pure aggression
A reflection of the hate that you must breed

You're out of reach
You're out of reach
Out of reach
You're out of reach
Out of reach

02. Sea Of White

Tell me what you feel inside
Maybe there's a way that
You can hide
From the world that you made
In your state of inner rage

Isn't hard to see right through
Penetrates your crystal shame
Look at what's become of you
In this prison that you made

I want to fly away
Take me to the edge of light
This place is not the same
I'm drifting in my mind
Floating in a field of white
My soul has taken flight

Somewhere buried deep within
Well beneath your surface skin
Is this thing a hold of you
And there's not much I can do

As you start with your descent
What's become of what it meant?
To consider what's at stake
When all you ever do is break

I want to fly away
Take me to the edge of light
This place is not the same
I'm drifting in my mind
Floating in a field of white
My soul has taken flight

03. Into The Wind

I float against the tide
Alone against this cold, cold feeling
Never knowing why
Refusing just to see
What became of
All these things inside
I wish someone
Would somehow try and reach me

I will never be the one to stay
While we waste away
Throw my whole life into the wind
Never thought of words to say
Wouldn't matter anyway
In another world I seem to have been

I look at where it's gone
Never really seeing
All the emptiness so long
It's hollow now inside
Swallowing the bitterness
You left behind
The fears can finally now subside

I will never be the one to stay
While we waste away
Threw my whole life into the wind
Never thought of words to say
Wouldn't matter anyway
In another world I seem to have been
Time for waking up again
To escape the sin
Don't know where I need to begin

Who's the one to blame?
You know you're all your afraid of
What life's really all about
I seek a space in time
Where everything is really nothing
Nothing to figure out
Nothing to think about

I will never be the one to stay
While we waste away
Threw my whole life into the wind
Never thought of words to say
Wouldn't matter anyway
In another world I seem to have been

Time for waking up again
To escape the sin
Don't know where I need to begin
I would never be the one to say
As I face the day
Threw my chances into
Into the wind

04. Watching In Silence

Don't know why I feel
This way every night
Somehow lost my way
On this timeless flight
All these feelings I keep locked up inside

I've pulled and twisted all those strings
And tried to mend these broken wings
Still inside the night I fly on

I'm moving on
I'm moving on
Watching in silence
Watching in silence again
Keep pushing on
I keep pushing on
Watching in silence
Inside the night as
All of the world
Is asleep

See me as I fly
So high in the night
All these feelings surround
This new gift of life
With these wings I'll fly
So high in the sky

I'll watch the world
As it goes down
It's buildings crumbled to the ground
The panic-ridden streets
Will cry on

I'm moving on
I'm moving on
Watching in silence
Watching in silence again
Keep pushing on
I keep pushing on
Watching in silence
Inside the night as
All of the world
Is asleep

You're feeling free
Apart from reality
All you do is run away

I'm falling from a hole in the sky
Once again don't know if I'll survive
Every second falling closer to the end
Broken wings of destiny
Spiral down again

You can feel the wind
Against your face
You cannot move
You're caught in place

I'm moving on
I'm moving on
Watching in silence
Watching in silence again
Keep pushing on
I keep pushing on
Watching in silence
Inside the night as
All of the world
Is asleep

05. Forgiven

You
You've died inside
Why?
Nowhere to hide
Lost inside an empty room
All
Your life is gone
Time
Can't heal the wrong
Now
It seems you're on your own
You're not alone
Just too far from home
You've traveled so far
But you could be forgiven
Someday
I've seen night turn to day
Turn to night

In the loneliest light
Far away from the day
Hides the loneliest life
What a waste
All betrayed
Because you can't seem to
Fly away from
The storm

Now
Please understand
God
God lent his hand
You
As always turned away
Now
It's all but lost
Try to bear the cross
Stay
I'll chase your fears away

No, now you're not alone
You're too far from home
You traveled too far
And you could be forgiven
Someday

I've seen night turn to day
Turn to night
In the loneliest light
Far away from the day
Hides the loneliest life
What a waste
All betrayed
Because you can't seem to
Fly away from
The storm

Turning and burning and yearning
It's all about learning and knowing
We never quite know what it's showing
And anytime it could be taking you down

You feel so high
But someday we'll find you

Alone alone alone alone
Turning and burning and yearning
It's all about learning and knowing
We never quite know what it's showing
And anytime it could be taking you down

What made you fly
Where no one could touch you?

I've seen night turn to day
Turn to night
In the loneliest light
Far away from the day
Hides the loneliest life
What a waste
All betrayed
Because you can't seem to
Fly away from
The storm

06. Lies

Why?
Should it be so hard to deal with things?
You always slip away
I sit here wasted, twisted on the thoughts
That have come my way
Seeing everything as a paradox
It seems so toxic
Analyze this hopeless situation
With your blinded eyes

You could never see
The nightmare I feel
It always seems
That nothing is real

I don't believe your lies
I don't believe in what you say
I don't believe your lies
I don't believe in anything
I don't believe you're you
I don't believe you're what you say
I don't believe this game
I don't believe in anything

Hide
From the endless politics,
The money and your tainted life
I know it's time
To break out of the shadows
Find my place in time
Getting out from underneath
The smoke screens
Meant to hide what you create
I figured out that trust was just
My one mistake

You could never see
The nightmare I feel
It always seems
That nothing is real

I don't believe your lies
I don't believe in what you say
I don't believe your lies
I don't believe in anything
I don't believe you're you
I don't believe you're what you say
I don't believe this game
I don't believe in anything
Anything
Anything
Anything

07. Face To Face

As I walk around
Casting shadows on the ground
I begin to see it all
In the aftermath
Things I can't put in the past
I try again to break the fall

I don't know what it's like
To clear my head
Of all this craziness
Coming at me
Lots of time spent
Doing all the same things
In my haziness
I know you tried to save me
But I've already died

Time to hate you
I forsake you
But I could never
Replace you
Should have never tried at all
Time, it breaks you
Time, it takes you
I should have never tried to change you

I am longing for a change
I'll reach the other side
I believe I'm face to face with time

All these confrontations
Slowly rot the years
I just made them disappear

Everybody's trying
To fill my head
With all this craziness
All around me
All the time spent
Doing just the same things
In my haziness
I know you tried to save me
But I've already died

Time to hate you
I forsake you
But I could never
Replace you
Should have never tried at all
Time, it breaks you
Time, it breaks you
I should have never tried to change you

I am longing for a change
I'll reach the other side
I believe I'm face to face with time

Time to hate you
I forsake you
But I could never
Replace you
Should have never tried at all
Time it breaks you
Time, it takes you
I should have never tried to change you

I am longing for a change
To reach the other side
I've been waiting for the day
That I will have to fight
I believe I'm face to face with time

08. Walls

I turn away
There's nothing to see here
Only a distant memory
Of how things really were
Supposed to be

And life moves on
Ever so quickly
I see my past it flashes by
Like the stars in the sky flickering

And the years come around
Years come around
I'm left here praying
That the tears falling down
Tears falling down
Are worth me saving
And I don't know how to go on

Tear down the walls of your life
You can't stop them anymore
Tear down the walls of your life
And find your way

How long
Can this life carry on?
How long
Watch the walls
Watch them burning down
How long
How long must we run?

I lost my way
When I was younger
I regret lots of things I did
Just maybe I didn't give quite enough

And the years turn around
Years turn around
Their faces fading
And the years going by
Years going by
There's no replacing
And the souls will all carry on

Tear down the walls of your life
You can't stop them anymore
Tear down the walls of your life
And find your way

How long
Can this life carry on?
How long
Watch the walls
Watch them burning down
How long
How long must we run?

Tear down the walls

How long
Can this life carry on?
How long
Watch the walls
Watch them burning down
How long
How long must we run?

09. The Circle

In the dead of the night
There's something calling to me
I can see all these visions
Of insanity
Insanity

There's no way to control it
Feel adrenaline rise
All these things that I see
What are they telling me
Telling me?
Will they set me free
Set me free?
Yes i've got to believe
Got to believe
It's unreal

Because i'm back in the circle
The circle tonight
All around me the faces
Reflect in my mind
I turned the page
Now i'm back in the circle
Back in the circle again

As I walk through the shadows
Filled with uncertainty
I get lost in this moment
Of insanity
Insanity

I have tried to make sense
Of the things that I see
I follow the light
Cause it's my destiny
Destiny
Will it set me free
Set me free?
And leave got to believe
Got to believe
It's unreal

Because i'm back in the circle
The circle tonight
All around me the faces
Reflect in my mind
I turned the page
Now i'm back in the circle
Back in the circle again

I've got things going on
Inside my head
Seems to long i've been gone
This road has led
To everywhere
I'll never be the same at all

You got to believe
Got to believe
What you're hoping to see
Hoping to see
What you want to believe
Want to believe
Is what you want it to be
Want it to be
Yes you got to believe
Got to believe
What you're hoping to see
Hoping to see
What you want to believe
Want to believe
Is what you want it to be
Want it to be

10. F.O.S. (Fields Of Sorrow)

Waiting for a chance
Like a fallen angel
That's been lost among the sands
In an hourglass of illusion
It's a momentary lapse
Of concentration that I had
As I slip into this world of darkness
Searching with my
Searching with my hands

Madness starts to play
Fills my mind with images too horrible to say
Scenes so real and twisted
Are they temporary thoughts
To disappear when I awake?
Or are they soon to be realities
That I must undertake
Once again

Walking the fields of sorrow
Toward the horizon I go
Staring alone inside the night
Darkness throws it's blackest light
Candles burning heading out of sight

Walking the fields of sorrow
My eyes black as coal
They hold the answers to the cries
That I'm holding here inside
One more thing to make me lose my mind

Think fast in the heat of the moment
He speaks but the words seem stolen
He tells me of lives he's broken
Now he's giving me a fair warning
Turn and run but my legs take me nowhere
Paralyzed by his cold-ass death stare

He wants to bargain for my soul
In this game I've lost all control

I wake and find I'm alone
Sweat in the cold morning air
Some kind of twisted delusions
Are they really there inside?
One more thing to make me lose my mind

I can't recall the things that I've seen
It's a loss inside my memory
I'm sure my visions will return
To hell with the devil watch him burn
Spent time in a dream with the insane
For now I seem to have escaped
From the spell that's been cast upon me
For now my soul is set free
From the cold

Before I go
Before I wander far

Walking through the fields of sorrow
Walking through the fields of sorrow
They will never let you go
Never let you go
Never let you go
