Cycle

Living in a cycle
Falling down a spiral
Wasting every half-breathed breath
Till I breathe my final
Wandering a wasteland
Everything is unplanned
How do I get out?

I'm stuck in a sequence
Leading straight to my demise
It's not just for convenience
It's a deadly compromise
If they think that I'm perfect
I wonder, would it change their minds?
Willfully in a circus
And me and the tiger see eye to eye

Somehow I'm always busy
(Somehow I'm always busy)
Or maybe I'm just guilty

Living in a cycle
Falling down a spiral
Wasting every half-breathed breath
Till I breathe my final
Wandering a wasteland
Everything is unplanned
How do I get out
I'm burning up the building
Fighting my descension
Beating myself up cause
I'm the one who made the decision
Feeling like a stagehand
Plunging into quicksand
How do I get out?

There's someone else in my mirror
It's up to you what that implies
(That's not me)
But in the dark, there's a whisper
And if I say I didn't ignore it, that'd be a lie
I feel two sides of me pulling
One's the evil, one's the common sense
(One's the common sense)
I thought I was maturing
But all I did was put up a fence

Tired of suppression
(Tired of suppression)
Oh, this is my confession

Living in a cycle
Falling down a spiral
Wasting every half-breathed breath
Till I breathe my final
Wandering a wasteland
Everything is unplanned
How do I get out
I'm burning up the building
Fighting my descension
Beating myself up cause
I'm the one who made the decision
Feeling like a stagehand
Plunging into quicksand
How do I get out?

But through the dark there's light
Oh it hurts but I know it's right
I might get in a fight
With myself
I was scared
My reputation out the door
Not something I can ignore
"Listen to me!", the still, small voice implores

I'm living in a cycle
Falling down a spiral
Wasting every half-breathed breath
Till I breathe my final
Wandering a wasteland
Everything is unplanned
How do I get out
I'm still burning up the building
But not for my descension
Done beating myself up
'Cause I'm the reason for the crucifixion
Now I've been reprogramed
Life has been reopened
There's rain after the drought

("That was good!")
("Umm, are you going to be able to mix this")
("When you get home?")
("Yeah")
