The Armour You Own lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

Don't look away
This is now the moment that you know that you have waited for wait no more
This is your time right here
No one can believe something all the time
You fall out
Someday you'll fall back in
But it's coming for you now
With your hope burning in its hand
The armour you've grown

You will not fear them, breathing inside of the armour you own
You will not see them all waiting in line for the armour you grow
Is the armour you own

Brace, this is just the game
Find your shelter in your calm and take comfort in your harm
Don't look away
This is just the moment that you know that you create
So wait no more in this feeling

You will not see them all waiting in line for the armour you grow
Is the armour you own

You will reach
You will fall down
Every time you fail you will change
You will break open this light
And from it you will know the way
I won't leave
You will step out from the tower that has kept you safe
Home will be where you are now

Know that this place must end
Know that this temple I built you'll shed
You will awake to your consciousness
Stand up and know now that you are the one who shapes
But know when to give if the heart dictates
Show all the empathy that you own with each moment
Keep nothing safe, you will grow from harm
The further you fall you return to own
Know that you'll always be chasing something
And it's ok

You will reach
You will fall down
Every time you fail you will change
You will break open this light
And from it you will know the way
I won't leave
You will step out from the tower that has kept you safe
Home will be where you are now

The Real You lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

Come on, you're not this forgiving
Come on, you're not here for the living
Have you ever seen my face
Have you ever seen this place, with your own eyes?

Hey you there
Show me the real you
Here in the physical
Because I see right through
This new millennial you
Show me the real you
Here in the physical
In my peripheral

Hold on, you're not this fulfilling
Hold on, there's something you're missing
Have you ever shown your face
In its original worn state, in your own life?

Hey you there
Show me the real you
Here in the physical
Because I see right through
This new millennial you
Show me the real you
Here in the physical
Because I see right through
This new millennial you
In my peripheral

Show me the real you
Just one thing that you have inside that's true
Is this the real you?
Or something you have analysed and proved?
Cause it's all the same
Every single day
It's time to leak disguise
The future to shine

Show me the real you
Here in the physical
Because I see right through
This new millennial you
Show me the real you
Here in the physical
Because I see right through
This new millennial you
Wake up now
I see evidence in you

Change lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

I've been here before
I know this place
With one door left untried
There's no way back
I've played this game
The one where the ego dies
There is no other choice, this is happening
I'm afraid
I don't fight
This is an ultimatum shaping life, but you don't get to say no

Change
Stepping back in fear that I will break
Holding out both hands to keep my place
All things are connected
I will try reject this
I can't find my way back home

Reset your expectation
The battle here is for your mind
There is no borderline
Kill it
Shed it

You alone the reason
The architect of all this time
Now you own this life
Build it
Fill it

There is no other choice, this is happening
I'm afraid
I don't fight
This is an ultimatum shaping life, but you don't get to say no

Change
Stepping back in fear that I will break
Holding out both hands to keep my place
All things are connected
Tell myself it's ending
I can't find my way back home

See the world has shifted to my eye
Feel a shade has lifted from my soul
Borders now are fading from my mind
The strength from what was pain is in my soul
I am in control

Our streets
Our lives
Therefore the onus is ours
Our reach
Our stakes
We are the keepers of ours

Tell myself I should embrace it

Now within this I see clear my faults
Standing in my way
Covering my sight
This temporary freedom
I walk to each waiting door
With open mind step from my cage
Concede that I was afraid
But I will

Change
Stepping back in fear that I will break
Holding out both hands to keep my place
All things are connected
Tell myself it's ending
I can't find my way back home
I am in control

Our streets
Our lives
Therefore the onus is ours
Our reach
Our stakes
We are the keepers of ours

Running Out Of Time lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

You can only see so far when both your hands are covering your eyes
You don't have the time
Tell yourself that greatness comes before the selfless take it all for you
Step back into line
Hoping maybe one day everything you want will fall into your hands
You don't need to try
Looking what your eyes can't see is not your problem, speaking of the truth

You don't need your eyes
You're running out of time

You can only see so far when both your hands are covering your eyes
You don't have the time
Tell your self that greatness makes with you the selfless easier to prove
Step back into line
Hoping soon that one day everything you want will fall into your hands
You don't need to try
Thinking what your eyes can't see is not your problem, speaking of the truth

You don't need your eyes
You're running out of time

Help me to try to relate
Help me to see through your eyes
Tell me it's part of the game
Show me a sign

Help me to try to relate
Help me breathe in disguise
Tell me it's all for the game
Show me a sign

Hey you there
It's me again
Can you relate?
Are we alike?
You fall down
I am so
This is my way

You're running out of time
It's coming for you, decide
You should be running for your life

Help me to try to relate
Help me to see through your eyes
Tell me it's part of the game
Show me a sign

Help me to try to relate
Help me breathe in disguise
Tell me it's all for the game
Show me a sign

Hey you there
It's me again
Can you relate?
Are we alike?
You fall down
I am so
This is my way
Are we the same?

We Own The Light lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

I can never seem to get my head straight
The way we're living's not right
Reset it all
I don't mind
No one else can ever get my headspace
I keep slipping from my happiness
From light

Don't let the sun pass you by
Don't accept defeat
Don't let the world be the reason why

Tell me if you want it
Know that I believe it
Say and I will hold it
We own the light
Tell me if you want it
I'll help you to defeat it
Defy until you own it
Become the light

I can never seem to get my head straight
The way we're living's not right
I get it but I won't lie
No one else can understand my headspace
I've been slipping from my happiness
This whole time

I let the sun pass me by
I admit defeat
I let the world be the reason why

Tell me if you want it
Know that I believe it
Say and I will hold it
We own the light
Tell me if you want it
I'll help you to defeat it
Defy until you own it
Someone to deconstruct this overwhelming desire
To disconnect from everything uninspired
I didn't know there was another way

Something's got this feeling wrong
Save me
Something's got this feeling wrong
Wake me
No sense at all of consequence
There's no reasoning
In the state that I have reached here
I alone take my truth; I'm done with it
I've lost my faith in this
I lost my way

I can never seem to get my head straight
The way we're living's not right
Reset it all
I don't mind
No one else can understand my headspace
I keep slipping from my happiness
No one else can see my shade
No one even knows my hollow pain
All hid by a smile that I wear everyday
That really I don't feel at all

Heartline lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

Look at you now
You're beginning to look a lot
Like the world you claimed you were running from
That time you said you were moving on
So when you said you were out there in the city
In the heart line
Conscious of what you step upon
My first thought was that you had gone insane

Stuck here alone
Screaming aloud
Trying to feel
The higher I am
Out of control, as I become my enemy
The higher I am

One in five is taking something
Numb to pain
I know I could
But I find home in heavy heart-shaped bottled moments on my own
Some facing backwards, out of place, step back in line
I know I should
If this is hope it's not fitting with me

Stuck here alone
Screaming aloud
Trying to feel
The higher I am
Don't even know
Where I belong
What I believe
I know I am out of control
When I become my enemy it's all I am
The higher I am and it's ok

All pieces have aligned
I try to remember
I feel I'm worthy of my place here forever
I keep my head high
But it's only an opinion
I'll hold to my opinion
It's only an opinion
I'll hold to my opinion

Stuck here alone
Screaming aloud
Trying to feel
The higher I am
Don't even know
Where I belong
What I believe
I know I am out of control
When I become my enemy
The higher I am

Look at you now
It's beginning

Ladders For Leaders lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

Sunrise was in doubt for tomorrow for the faithful
and the hopeless who were told their world had died
Outside where the battle should be raging
there was no one even thinking
I looked over, there was no you

It's time
You're awake
I'm not sinning for the world today
I know this fire
You will shine
We all want something to believe again that's right
It's time
You're awake
I'm not sinning for the world today
I know this fire
You will shine
We all want something to believe again now

Somehow they defeated us with no one even bleeding
No resistance or debate
They just covered our eyes
Villains created, become ladders for leaders
To keep us from asking who's holding the strings coming from their backs

It's time
You're awake
I'm not sinning for the world today
I know this fire
You will shine
We all want something to believe again that's right
It's time
You're awake
I'm not sinning for the world today
I know this fire
You will shine
We all want something to believe again that's right

It's like something I know
Feels like something I own
It's like I'm breathing for the first time
Villains created, become ladders for leaders
To keep us from asking who's holding the strings coming from their backs

It's time
You're awake
I'm not sinning for the world today
I know this fire
You will shine
We all want something to believe again now

There's hope
I see the thread that we are hanging from
One voice and we can save it all
I choose to reinvent
You know the way
You are the way


Trade Places lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

I believe what I feel because the truth is too far away
Only when I can see the fall I know there's something to change
I believe what I feel because I choose the moment awake
But only in the reveal I know the truth I'm hoping to change

If you and I and them trade places
Make our stand in a generation
Let the truth decide
If we don't wait for this
It won't be long

Yeah if you and I and them trade places
Make our stand in a generation
Let the truth collide
If we keep faith in this
It won't be long

I can't be told I'm free
I've fallen awake
I can't be sold, I'm free
I've fallen awake

If you and I and them trade places
Make our stand in a generation
Let the youth decide
If we don't wait for this
It won't be long

Yeah if you and I and them trade places
Make our stand in generation
Let the truth collide
If we keep faith in this
It won't be long

I can't be told I'm free
I've fallen awake
I can't be sold, I'm free

I believe what I feel because the truth is too far away
Only when I can see the fall I know there's something to change
I believe what I feel because I choose the moment awake
But only in the reveal I know the truth I'm hoping to change

The break
The fall
The fear
The moment of faith
Becomes the heat that grows to a flame
You know
You see the rope or the chain
The wall
The breach
The hope you will gain

I believe what I feel because the truth is too far away
Only when I can see the fall I know there's something to change
I believe what I feel because I choose the moment awake
But only in the reveal I know the truth I'm hoping to change

Say It Won't Be Long lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

With you these are the words, and the impressions are the same
Time hasn't left its mark
There's some way out
All in your hands
Because it's never quite too late
All I can understand
Is one day I'd sure like to be you
So say it won't be long
So please continue
I've got the gun in my hand
So say it won't be long

I can see there is light
I cannot find a way
Stuck here thinking if I had just tried to again
I can see you inside
But I cannot find my way

It's true
These are the terms
And the concessions are the same
The line hasn't crept this far
There's no way out
All in my head
For my obsessions are innate
Tell me you understand this

Someday I'd sure like to be you
So say it won't be long
So please continue
I've got the gun in my hand
So say it won't be long

I can see there is light
I cannot find a way
Stuck here thinking if I had just tried to again
I can see you inside
But I cannot find my way

Now I feel my confidence imploding
My sense of self worth grown to loathing
I am defeated thinking forward
And I keep falling

Someone help me to find that one piece of me
That I left here safe in case I lost my way
Pull me up but let me go before it breaks
I face this feeling alone,
To defeat this fear on my own
I'm ok but say it won't be long

Now I feel my confidence is growing
My sense of self worth is unfolding
I am now fearless facing forward
So I start crawling
Facing my darkness inside
Wearing the face I own
The one I don't show
Because I'm scared sometimes of what it looks like
If I don't fit this space
I'll play my game
All I know that it is never enough
Because it's never enough
I'm ok that it is never enough
Because it's never enough
All I know that it is never enough
Because it's never enough
I'm ok that it is never enough
I know it's never enough

Home lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

I alone know the truth of who I am
Staring back from the path I chose, silent
I know, I know now what I really want in this life
I need more in this life
Because I feel so alone
I need more than this
I crave more than this

I know I'm chasing something I can find home in
Feel the beat of my heart in
Find my soul in it

Standing
Back to the life I chose
I am staring afraid now of what my future is
But I know, I know now what I really want in this life
I need more in this life

I know I'm chasing something I can find home in
See the turn in my arc now
With the fear of my path now
So I go with it

My path of resistance
I am scared as I crawl
I feel I'm past my point of comfort
It starts; the beat is heart-like, faint
I'm scared of the drum
Faceless, now I stand here alone
Helpless, give myself to it all as I fall in
Here I come
I know I am worthy enough

I know I'm chasing something I can find home in
Think of all that I've been through
Every scar that I've grown through
There is nothing to fear now
I am ready for change now
To find my soul in it

I know, I know now what I really want in this life
I need more in this life

In Plain Sight lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

And I hope that one day I will see you again
Maybe it’s time we say that it’s over
Control
Contracts
Faded smiles on faces we lived
Maybe it’s time we say that it’s over

Stop
Help me
I’m hoping I can change your mind
I’m empty
I’m hoping you can see the signs
Only I can see to fight again
The moment of defeat to find a way
No one will replace you
Only I can save you

Unconscious addiction
I follow you but you motion to stay
Defiance
Denial
I promise you there is more
I can change

You say let it go
Move on
I keep hanging on

Stop
Help me
I’m hoping I can change your mind
I’m empty
I’m hoping you can see the signs
Only I can see to fight again
The moment of defeat to find a way
No one will replace you
Only I can save you

In plain sight of [x5]
Dream shattered [x5]

And I hope that one day I will see you again
Maybe it’s time we say that it’s over
Control
Contracts
Faded smiles on faces we lived
Maybe it’s time you leave now
It’s over

Stop
Help me
I’m hoping I can change your mind
I’m empty
I’m hoping you can see the signs
Only I can see to fight again
The moment of defeat to find a way
No one will replace you
Only I can save you

While You Wait lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

While you wait
An uncertain day starts
Another fake war
What will it take?

Are you ready?
While you wait
Your apathy puts
Your hand on the blade
Of the mother’s slave

Are you ready?
While you wait
An uncertain day starts
Another fake war
What will it take?

Are you ready?
While you wait
Your apathy puts
Your hand on the blade
Of the mother’s slave

First they sold you
A threat to your life
Imminent phase
Of a fear unknown
Then they told you
Best that we strike now
Before the others do

It becomes you
Empathy slides
You will know hate
Of the fear alone
Then they own you
Better just strike now
Before the others do

While you wait
An uncertain day starts
Another fake war
What will it take?

Are you ready?
While you wait
Your apathy puts
Your hand on the blade
Of the mother’s slave

You believe what you want to
Remove what you know
In your heart is the truth from the lie
And the dream that you know
Is the furtherest thing from the fates of the hopeless who die
As you sell the machine
Are you certain you are not the face of the world you despise?
You know this but choose your indifference

While you wait
An uncertain day starts
Another fake war
What will it take?

Are you ready?
While you wait
Your apathy puts
Your hand on the blade
Of the mother’s slave

Are you ready?
While you wait
An uncertain day starts
Another fake war
What will it take?

Are you ready?
While you wait
Your apathy puts
Your hand on the blade
Of the mother’s slave

Are you ready?
While you wait

The Burning Number lyrics - Dead Letter Circus

The same old signs
Sitting here breathing in this circus
The same old game
Feeding our fears here as disciples

Build the walls higher
Take no chances
Put your faith in fear and alarm
Sleep assured if you seek no answers here
Obey, preach and comply
Be afraid

They’re keeping everything
Who is watching them while they look over every shoulder?
They're holding everything
If you question them maybe you’re the burning number
Maybe you're the burning number

Build the walls higher take no chances
Put your faith in fear and alarm
Sleep assured if you seek no answers here
Obey, preach and comply
Place your hate with mass opinion
Accept your truth as told
Every lie
Because we chose this through our inaction
So embrace, breathe and disarm
Be afraid
They're keeping everything
Who is watching them while they look over every shoulder?
Maybe you're the burning number

Nothing to fear at all
With nothing to hide
Be honest
Do you believe it all?
They say they live among us
Nothing to fear at all
With nothing to hide
Be honest

Do you believe it all?
What if they live above us?
What if they hide above us?
And if they live above us
And if they hide above us
Build the walls higher take no chances
Put your faith in fear and alarm
Sleep assured if you seek no answers here
Obey, preach and comply
The same old signs
Sitting here breathing in this circus
The same old game
Feeding our fears here as disciples

Nothing to fear at all
With nothing to hide
Be honest
Nothing to fear at all
What if they live above us?

Safe in your cage
Maybe you're the burning number
