FULL CIRCLE - Intellectual

[Intro]

So when I'm onto something it's never quite enough

And I don't know where to stop, tell me where to go for luck

The game is over

Start all over

And so we come full circle

Or end up somewhere in the middle

Yeah!

[Verse 1]

Now you cannot hunt for treasure

Inside the ring of darker thoughts

The villain from the lookout

Shuts you up with its big mouth

You try to keep fighting

But it’s already knocked you out

I feel scared to ask the questions

Wings spread wide, white feathers died

I tried to throw you out

I tried to calm my whip

Where can I find colour in this black-and-white abyss?

So come full circle or end up somewhere in the middle

[Chorus 1]

We silenced the darkness

While looking for stars and

It feels like they’ve turned non-existent

And we can’t see the light in the distance

The energy’s solar

The party is over

And feelings have turned artificial

And so we get stuck in the middle

[Post-Chorus 1]

Oh, the machines have won

Fair and square and like ghosts they haunt

We're running in circles

Trying different angles

A prism that keeps us in line

[Bridge]

Lights out, but we won’t sleep ‘til sunrise

Lights out, before we see what we’ve been building

Lights out, but we won’t sleep ‘til sunrise

Lights out, before we end up in the middle

Lights out, but we'll be up ‘til sunrise

Lights out, before we see what we're becoming

Lights out, but we'll be up ‘til sunrise

Lights out, before we end up in the middle

[Verse 2]

I let this darkness drag me down

I thought I’d reached the bottom line

No one’s looking for a way out

‘Cause we still think that we're fine

When will we see, that nobody is alright?

Can you see the sun’s wounds behind these weary eyes?

When you see the fear and pain behind that smile of lies

Inside is the void where I’ll be set free

But why must the holder of the keys be me…

[Chorus 2]
