All That Remains
Discovering Life's Unchanging Realities Through Circle II Circle's 'All That Remains'
Lyrics
Now I can see I need more than time
Realization that time alone is insufficient
Time to understand this life
The need for time to comprehend life
All that remains are the things that never changed
Things that remain unchanged in life
You need more than I could provide
Inability to meet the other person's needs
More than what you feel inside
Emphasizing the need for more than internal emotions
You know the pain so familiar
Familiarity with emotional pain
Who's to gain?
Questioning who benefits from the pain
It's a one-way situation
A situation with no return, one-sided
Running through my mind
Thoughts racing in the mind
In a world of desolation
A world characterized by emptiness and abandonment
The souls we left behind
Remembering the abandoned souls
In this mass confusion
A state of chaos and uncertainty
Ringing in my head
Persistent thoughts causing mental disturbance
Through all the past illusions
Seeing through past misconceptions
I see you there a silent stare
Observing someone in silence
Why, why should truth have its cost?
Questioning the cost of truth
This reality is my loss to find my peace
Acknowledging reality as a personal loss
Is the hardest thing to reach
Finding peace is the most challenging endeavor
So we ride dividing lines
Navigating through life's challenges
And we keep on buying time
Continuing to delay important decisions
We play this game
Engaging in a repetitive and unproductive cycle
And there's no good time to change
Resisting change despite the circumstances
It's a one-way situation...
Reiteration of a one-sided situation
Memories locked in safe places
Recalling memories stored in secure places
Been through shock and seen the faces
Experiencing shock and recognizing faces
Can someone hear me now?
Seeking acknowledgment and connection
Can someone show me?
Yearning for guidance or support
All that seemed just the right way
Realizing the apparent right path was deception
Was a lie sent to betray
Lies intended to betray
Time's torment never complete
Unending suffering caused by time
Lives for rent
Lives available for exploitation
So easy to deceive
The ease of deceiving and being deceived
So easy to believe
The susceptibility to belief
Now, can I see I need more than time...
Reiteration of the need for more than time
It's a one-way situation...
Reaffirming the one-sided nature of the situation
