An Illusion Called Circumstance Songtext
I stop counting at twenty five

And I decide to reopen my eyes

Inches from a place

I never though I'd be

And now I'd rather not leave
Seasonal is not feasible

And neither is feeling this alone



Stay under, the answer hasn't risen yet

I know it's hard to hold your breath



Tonight I'll try and run it out

But I've heard resilience is his middle name

And I've seen and been hypnotized

By his spinning, spinning inviting eyes
Tomorrow I will try and beat it out

But my last scars still haven't healed



Stay under, the answer hasn't risen yet

I know it's hard to hold you breath



And they fester, open sores

Self-inflicted, behind these doors

Next week I'll try and run it out

But he still clings to my five-year-old sneaker soles

No one ever really sees

Blinded by an illusion he calls circumstance



Stay under, the answer hasn't risen yet

I know it's hard to hold your breath



Stay under, the answer hasn't risen yet

I know it's hard to hold your breath
