Circumstances - Live
A boy alone and so far from home
Endless rooftops from my window
I felt the gloom of empty rooms
On rainy afternoons.
Sometimes in confusion
I felt so lost and disillusioned
Innocence gave confidence
To go up against reality.
All the same
We take our chances
Laughed at by time
Tricked by circumstances
Plus ca change
Plus c'est la meme chose
The more that things change
The more they stay the same.
Now I've gained some understanding
Of the only world that we see
Things that I once dreamed of
Have become reality.
These walls that still surround me
Still contain the same old me
Just one more who's searching for
The world that ought to be.
All the same
We take our chances
Laughed at by time
Tricked by circumstances
Plus ca change
Plus c'est la meme chose
The more that things change
The more they stay the same.
Endless rooftops from my window
I felt the gloom of empty rooms
On rainy afternoons.
Sometimes in confusion
I felt so lost and disillusioned
Innocence gave confidence
To go up against reality.
All the same
We take our chances
Laughed at by time
Tricked by circumstances
Plus ca change
Plus c'est la meme chose
The more that things change
The more they stay the same.
Now I've gained some understanding
Of the only world that we see
Things that I once dreamed of
Have become reality.
These walls that still surround me
Still contain the same old me
Just one more who's searching for
The world that ought to be.
All the same
We take our chances
Laughed at by time
Tricked by circumstances
Plus ca change
Plus c'est la meme chose
The more that things change
The more they stay the same.
