Stepping Outside The Circle

Here I go again
A vicious cycle without end
Seeking distance for security
A desperate act to remain free
A balance point cannot be found
This whole thing will come crashing down
Down, down!
My fear will drag you down
Into this world that I create
Your love for me has sealed your fate
Down, down!
My fear will drag you down
Can I trust in what I feel?
Praying that this time it's real
Feel the strain, all this times been spent in vain
My name, open wounds that still remain
Decay, as my faith is stripped away
You'll say, the final price I have to pay
Digging in deeper still
The hollowness I yearn to fill
The story always ends the same
The cycle soon begins again
A balance point cannot be found
This whole thing will come crashing down
Down, down!
My fear will drag you down
Into this world that I create
Your love for me has sealed your fate
Down, down!
My fear will drag you down
Can I trust in what I feel?
Praying that this time it's real
Feel the strain, all this times been spent in vain
My name, open wounds that still remain
Decay, as my faith is stripped away
You'll say, the final price I have to pay
Feel the strain, all this times been spent in vain
My name, open wounds that still remain
Decay, as my faith is stripped away
You'll say, the final price I have to pay
Digging in deeper still
I have to pay
The hollowness I yearn to fill
The final price I have to pay
The story always ends the same
The final price I have to pay
Stepping outside the circle
Stepping outside the circle
Stepping outside the circle
Stepping outside the circle
Stepping
