Encircled lyrics

I see myself

In the bodies being carried out

I see myself in you

When safety falls again

It broke something essential

Like nothing ever would

A promise to give

A promise to hold

This is not what I want to hear right now

But our time is running out

So far removed from what you need to know

Words too hard to handle

Our time is running out

We're by demons encircled

Eroding away at reason

The bile of insecurity

This fear devoid of nuance

And fact resistant belief

I hold together what I can

I hold together what I know

This is not what I want to hear right now

But our time is running out

So far removed from what you need to know

Words too hard to handle

Our time is running out

We're by demons encircled

These are just symptoms of experience and life

I wish I could postpone

It eats at our logic

Like nothing ever should

It claws at our humanity

So that nothing can remain

This is the currency of faith

And we are coming up short

The reality of failure

Now upon us

This is not what I want to hear right now

But our time is running out

So far removed from what you need to know

Words too hard to handle

Our time is running out

By demons encircled
