Villain Of Circumstance


The sky keeps falling down again
So don't you pay it no attention
A role to switch from foe to friend
But it lies in our perceptions

Now everybody gets sold out
By some changes that aren't changes
While we've never known what they're about
It's all a matter of persuasion

Hold your breath and take a glance
Don't look behind, just look ahead
Yeah roll the dice and take a chance
On this villain of circumstance
Our villain of circumstance

This kingdom come keeps coming down
But don't you worry 'bout the future
When all our roles get turned around
We can sew it up in sutures

Though every truth will be denied
Through the fakest of transgressions
To host our logic's suicide
With some wasted apprehension

Hold your breath and take a glance
Don't look behind, just look ahead
Yeah roll the dice and take a chance
On this villain of circumstance
Our villain of circumstance

Well maybe it's you or maybe it's me
But there's always some truths that we don't wanna see
As we live in illusions for rules we'd condemn
Is it all in the facts or just trapped in my head?
A line to retract when the ending's misread

Hold your breath and take a glance
Don't look behind, just look ahead
Yeah roll the dice and take a chance
On this villain of circumstance
Our villain of circumstance

Close your eyes and count to ten
Decisive minds still on the fence
Will we make it back? It all depends
On our villain of circumstance
Our villain of circumstance
