Lyrics[]

Sleeping peacefully
The girl I used to be
Until I fell so deep
A neverending tragedy

You haunt me in my dreams
But it's all I want to see
You're the oxygen I need
Yet I can't breathe

Circles, in circles, I go around
Looking for something that can't be found
Circles, in circles, without a sound
My words can't be heard when the fear surrounds
My heart...

What is happening to me?
Tell me, what does all this mean
So far away from reality
"What a lovely place to be."

I tell myself, 'cause every second like this feels like hell
Are these words that you gave me real?
I can't tell...
It doesn't matter, 'cause nothing matters
I'll see you again in a dream so far away...

Circles, in circles, I go around
Looking for a reason that can't be found
Circles, in circles, without a sound
My tears can't be heard when they hit the ground

So come, take my hand and
Come, make me feel what it's like
When love comes alive
And one day, I wish that
I won't keep hiding the truth
But I'm just a fool

Oh, I'm such a fool...

Repeating, repeating
I'm dying, I'm breathing
Repeating, repeating
I'm crying, I'm healing

Repeating, repeating
I'm dying, I'm breathing
Repeating, repeating
I'm crying, I'm healing

Repeating, repeating
I'm dying, I'm breathing
Repeating, repeating
I'm crying, I'm healing

Circles, in circles, I go around
Looking for a reason that can't be found
Circles, in circles, without a sound
My tears can't be heard when they hit the ground

Circles, in circles, I go around
Looking for something that can't be found
Circles, in circles, without a sound
My words can't be heard when the fear surrounds
My heart...

So come, take my hand and
Come, make me feel what it's like
When love comes alive
And one day, I wish that
I won't keep hiding the truth
But I'm just a fool
Oh, I'm such a fool

Repeating, repeating
I'm dying, I'm breathing
Repeating, repeating
I'm crying, I'm healing

Repeating, repeating
I'm dying, I'm breathing
Repeating, repeating
I'm crying, I'm healing

Sleeping peacefully
The girl I used to be
Until I fell so deep
A neverending tragedy

You haunt me in my dreams
But it's all I want to see
You're the oxygen I need
Yet I can't breathe

Circles, in circles, I go around
Looking for something that can't be found
Circles, in circles, without a sound
My tears can't be heard when the fear surrounds
My heart...

What is happening to me?
Tell me, what does all this mean
So far away from reality
is such a lonely place to be

I know too well, 'cause every second like this feels like hell
Are these words that you gave me real?
I can't tell...
It doesn't matter, no nothing matters
I'll see you again in a dream so far away...

Circles, in circles, I go around
Looking for a reason that can't be found
Circles, in circles, without a sound
My tears can't be heard when they hit the ground

So come, take my hand and
Come, make me feel what it's like
When love comes alive
And one day, I wish that
I won't be hiding the truth
Away from you

Oh, trust me I do

Repeating, repeating
I'm dying, I'm breathing
Repeating, repeating
I'm crying, I'm healing
Re-

Circles, in circles, I go around
Looking for a reason that can't be found
Circles, in circles, without a sound
My tears can't be heard when they hit the ground

So come, take my hand and
Come, make me feel what it's like
When love comes alive
And one day, I wish that
I won't be hiding the truth
Away from you
Oh, trust me I do
