Circle
Music and Lyrics by Sarah McLachlan
There are two of walking in circles
and one of us wants to leave
in a world created for only us
an empty cage that has no key
don't you know we're working
with flesh and blood
carving out of jealousy
Crawling into each other
it's smothering
every little part of me
What kind of love is this that keems me hanging on
despite everything it's doing to me
What is this love that keeps me coming back for more
when it will only end in misery
I know too many people unhappy
in a life from which they'd love to flee
watching others get everything offered
they're wanton for discovery
Oh my brother my sister my mother
you're losing your identity
can't you see that it's you in the window
shining with intensity
What kind of love is this that keeps me hanging on
despite everything it's doing to me
what is this love that keeps me coming back for more
when it will only end in misery...
