The Circle


When the circle has broken and your back's to the wall
And the vultures close in and wait for your fall
And you ponder the right and the wrong of your game,
Remember the circle will meet up again.

When failure has drained all the gold from your safe
And you've given it all but have gotten no place,
When you're standing alone in the cold pouring rain,
Remember the circle will meet up again.

When that cold hearted shirker, you thought was your friend
Played a game of diabolo, leaving you to defend
Your honor, your morals, the truth and your name,
Remember the circle will meet up again.

When justice is blinded and truth is untrue
And places the blame and the burden on you,
When you sit in your dungeon and think of the vain,
Remember the circle will meet up again.

When darkness has swallowed the light of the day,
When doors will not open and you can't find the way,
And you wonder, has all of the world gone insane?
Remember the circle will meet up again.

And your soul is confused and your heart is asunder
And you stop to believe that tomorrow is yonder,
When you think there's no end to the days of your pain,
Remember the circle will meet up again.

Remember... The circle will meet up again.

The circle does, indeed ...

Thank you for inspirational words.
