Circa Survive - At Night It Gets Worse lyrics

[Verse 1] I can’t afford to seize I never stay for too long And when the whistle blows Every light goes out in order Waking up inside A profane dream And someone innocent Pull the storage cell is empty [Chorus] Your straining stare, cut from every other home In the sequence of our unidentified Impersonator, ’cause you know just what to say And by any other name is still a lie The amethyst will beat into your skull, come pouring out Hoping to see why you don’t show Any emotion you fear that’s Breaking you open to feel our wild force [Verse 2] Whatever comes of this, I want to fill the big frame, beside your prison bed Every eye sealed shut with resentment I can’t afford to speak in this nauseous daze Once the ice is broke, every hand you held will pull you down Are we made like this? By a raging fool We were wrong and we resisted our own charge Are we trained like this? Bite the giving hand We were lost and there was no place we could go [Chorus] Your straining stare, cut from every other home In the sequence of our unidentified Impersonator, ’cause you know just what to say And by any other name is still a lie The amethyst will beat into your skull, come pouring out Hoping to see why you don’t show Any emotion you fear that’s Breaking you open to feel our wild force [Bridge] Crawl out my shell Change when will I get a chance Don’t lose your nerve Again, when will I get a chance Crawl out my shell (Out in the dark I can hear someone singing along with us) Change when will I get a chance (I never thought that could be on my own again) Don’t lose your nerve (Now all this time I spent waiting for something to change is gone) Again, when will I get a chance (Never escaping the echoing sound of your locked engage) [Outro] I might as well be dead When will I get to it?
