Sweet Despair - Circle II Circle

Just when you think

It’s all been settled and

There’s nothing wrong

You’re losing sight of where

This all might lead

And where it’s gone

We live inside the darkness

Our hopes run free tonight

With every thought that beckons

For another try

So many years we spent

Just going through the motions

With no real sunrise

Coming clear on the horizon

You write the ending all alone

The yearning never died

Although the truth is still untold

No one seems to mind

In the shadows of sweet despair

In the window you see there’s nothing there

Just when you thought it could change forever

You let it slip away

In the shadows of sweet despair

In your soul it seems there’s nothing left

You got a taste of what you wanted

Just when you think it’s all been written

And the ending’s done

Although you fight for all it’s worth

You see your dreams denied

But every part of you that hurts

Will refuse to die

In the shadows of sweet despair

In the window you see there’s nothing there

Just when you thought it could change forever

You let it slip away

In the shadows of sweet despair

In your soul it seems there’s nothing left

You got a taste of what it meant

In the shadows of sweet despair

Everything you lost will come to find you there

Just when you thought it could change forever

You let it slip away

In the shadows of sweet despair

In the center of your soul there’s nothing left

You got a taste of what you wanted
