Circa Survive - 1,000 Witnesses Lyrics






Don't aim without a target.
Where will we end up?

Don't tamper with the compass dial.
Where will it take us?

We're running back to the start.
Feels like its over.

Don't aim with out a target.
Where will we end up?

Where a fountain to fall from the sky.
There'd be a thousand witnesses.

But the crowd hears screams.
We don't see a thing.
Our eyes are open.

Are we looking the right way?
Cause we don't see a thing.
Our minds are open.
There'd be a thousand witnesses
There'd be a thousand witnesses

Stay in place.
Use it right.
It was an anchor.
Pour concrete on the roots.
Just to make sure.
Just to make sure you'd never move.

If a fountain did fall from the sky there would be a thousand witnesses.
Our eyes are open.
Were running back to the start it feels like its over.
Were running back to the start.
It feels like.

It was an anchor
Pour concrete on the roots.
Just to make sure.
Just to make sure you'd never move.

  1. G.... G....

    This track has emarosa/ old underoath vibes

  2. G.... ....

    2019... And this is still one of my favorite circa songs .

  3. M.... K....

    This is quite tight

  4. T.... B....

    We’re headed back to the start
    It feels like it’s over
    We’re headed back to the start
    It feels like
    It was an anchor
    Pour concrete on the roots
    Just to make sure
    Just to make sure
    You’ll never move

  5. m.... ....

    I hope they play this on the anniversary tour for on letting go.

    m.... ....

    they are... :DDD

    m.... ....

    jjking8778 they did. it was amaaaazing

    m.... ....

    Got back from Showbox Sodo show about an hour back, and yep they played it there too. (Along with "Most Dangerous Commercials)

    m.... ....

    jjking8778 yep they sure did!!

  6. A.... G....

    A poet and band of magicians

    A.... G....

    Arik Garcia-Swift the band also contributes to the lyrics

  7. a.... ....

    if God existed and did super powerful God stuff (like conjure a fountain in the sky), you would have far more evidence and a stronger of consensus over his existence. people would know for sure if God existed if he's consistently doing the stuff people says He does (there'd be 1000 witnesses)

    a.... ....

    You have proof God exists? Cause if you do please alert every living human asap

    a.... ....

    africa93 bro, being alive and existing isn't enough for you huh.

    a.... ....

    africa93 i agree with you bro religion is bull its just a perception of the world because there are a lot of unknowns and as humans we are afraid of the unknown so we flock to that secure feeling which is religion

  8. J.... ....

    Song is clearly about socialism and it's negative effects on a country.
    Bernie Sanders and his supporters read between the lines.

    J.... ....

    Awh look at you trying to correlate this song to your own twisted beliefs. You must know it all, I bet you believe that. I find it really funny how this song was written by a guy who was addicted to to heroin for years. Probably not the first guy i'd take on for a display of why democratic socialism is the wrong way to go about things. I bet that triggered some part of your rightwinged brain. This is all pointless though, because this is not what the song is about. This song is clearly religious in nature. nothing more.

    J.... ....

    Your comments gave me cancer. You should be violently attacked.

    J.... ....

    Jonjey2112 lol to bad Trump's our president now. Fucking tool.

    J.... ....

    Reeeeaching

    J.... ....

    Jonjey2112 meanwhile, the most dangerous commercials is a straightforward, indisputable critique of capitalism. So maybe analyze that.

  9. P.... V....

    This song is about miracles or divine intervention

  10. M.... D....

    lol ridiculous how good this is.

    M.... D....

    Matt D still ridiculous

  11. P.... J....

    you can really hear the tool influence on that riff 0:52

    P.... J....

    @Prithvi Jana I am glad I am not the only that got a Tool vibe from this song.

    P.... J....

    theredmenace07 YOU JUST SAW THEM?! LUCKY!! I was lucky to catch a performance of them at the House of Blues in LA with my twin couple a years back. I wish I coulda got VIP to shake their hands etc. well.. time to find a new concert I must attend! :D

  12. b.... f....

  26. P.... B....

  27. D.... L....

  29. f.... ....

    @gnarkill585 slipknot is pretty awesome bro.... just throw that out there...

  30. b.... ....

    replay button destroyed :P

  31. T.... ....

    To all you fuckers with this sort of comment (or something similar) :
    "0 dislikes, I guess this is just that amazing of a song."
    Shut the fuck up, are you retarded! That's what makes people dislike it - no matter how good a song is.

  32. m.... ....

    @gnarkill585

    Hey hey hey, there is nothing wrong with Slipknot or Mudvayne, I have been a huge fan of Slipknot since they came out and Circa is def my favorite band of all time.

  33. J.... ....

    Too many witnesses!

  34. J.... ....

    Killer track. It's a shame it wasn't on the actual On Letting Go disc itself. I own it now though... definitely in my top 5 from them.

  35. M.... V....

    Love this track sooo much

  36. D.... ....

    @gnarkill585 He'll learn in 5 years when he's 23 and his little heart gets fucked by someone close to him. Whether it be family or some girl. It'll happen. Then he'll be in the crowd singin "I felt freeeeeee" ;p

  37. C.... G....

    @ffghjuyuj no

  38. S.... E....

    Fuck! I wish this song would go on forever.

  39. R.... F....

    he was better with saosin

  40. Y.... M....

    this has to be their best song

  41. 6.... ....

    @Rrocco7777 go to listentoyoutube com

  42. 6.... ....

    this is one of my favorite songs by them!

  43. D.... ....

    Amazing!

  44. B.... ....

    @Rrocco7777 Its a special vinyl release only song. I bought the b sides vinyl the other night when I saw them!

  45. R.... ....

    Where can you download this? or buy? Itunes, amazon, no one has it.

  46. P.... S....

    easily one of their best songs

  47. A.... v....

    @thsPLCEisAnENEMY While Anthony does provide vocals on most tracks, TSOAF is actually the brainchild of Rich Balling (ex-Rx Bandits) and is a pretty big supergroup with a core 4 people. I think they only played about 4 or 5 live shows. Not so much Circa evolving but a culmination of a lot of the minds behind the genre coming together to make something insane.

  48. T.... D....

    If you guys like Anthony you should check out his side project The Sounds of Animals Fighting - it's pretty amazing. Think it's got people from Circa, RxBandits, and Finch. Oh, and this is one of my favorites of theirs, and the new CD that just came out it nothing short of my expectations. Circa Survive - ever evolving.

  49. M.... ....

    I adore all circa songs but there is something special about this one and the most dangerous commercials...lovely stuff!!

  50. S.... ....

    2 people tampered with the compass dial

  51. a.... b....

    what album is this?

  52. M.... ....

    @gnarkill585 lmao!

  53. R.... ....

    the bass is so fucking awsome!!!!

  54. T.... ....

    @KevinTunneyNJ im the one who disliked.

    ROFL, jk, but this is one of their better songs. But everything they release is great.

  55. A.... S....

    i love this band... found out about them a couple days ago cause of friends! you guys are amazing!

  56. K.... ....

    @dirtydanzig no you're an idiot. this is amazing, and i will never forget

  57. v.... ....

    I liked this song I wonder what one person voted no. Im not about conformity but come on it was a legit song

  58. j.... ....

    @dirtydanzig this band and ANTHONY GREEN will never be forgotten

  59. S.... ....

    @gnarkill585 Oi, I think he shat himself!

  60. D.... A....

    @twistedmetal511 I guess you don't appreciate REAL music. Your probualy one of those kids who listens to brittany spears lol. We'll enjoy our music , while you enjoy yours.

  61. a.... ....

    I've never seen a youtube video without arguing on it, its so redundant and useless.
    If you don't like what your listening to, thats fine. but Why complain about it? its called a comment, not a complaint. Anthony green does have a high pitched singing voice, but thats his talent, and some people enjoy it. If you don't like the song your hearing....change it, takes one click.

  62. i.... ....

    this band is fucking amazing...

  63. P.... ....

    no, but if u still want it message me

  64. a.... j....

    why bother asking the awenser is a few clicks away..

  65. d.... ....

    i love this song idk y i nvr heard this song up till a lil ago

  66. R.... M....

    Circa Survive is the best. :)

  67. r.... ....

    This song and The Most Dangerous Commercials are two of the most incredible songs i've ever heard.

  68. d.... ....

    yeah its acutally a good movie, i watched it before i listend to them, it was actually what a youth group thing, but its funny that i love this band, and they also support the movie, i was crying when at the mid point the car behind theres gets rpg'd

  69. K.... ....

    this song is a b side from on letting go mate

  70. M.... ....

    circa new stuff! so stoked...

  71. b.... ....

    okay so how come it seems like their best songs arent on albums? ah i wish i had a way to get them but i dont have itunes or anything

  72. T.... ....

    this song is SO pimp i love it

  73. D.... ....

    good song

  74. R.... ....

    and they say that this a B-side for On Letting Go so...

  75. C.... ....

    i feel you there lol good shit

  76. C.... ....

    doubt it, probably just for the people supporting the effort, Anthony WOULD do something like that because he really wants people to help, if u dont know hes very passionate for everything he does lol

  77. p.... ....

    i didnt think i was gonna like this but its fucking ill!! kinda sounds like mandala at some points

  78. M.... C....

    WOW, that is a damn good song.

  79. G.... ....

    "B-Side" is a reference to 7-inch vinyl singles- the A-Side had the featured song while the B-Side had a secondary song not usually featured on the LP.

  80. G.... ....

    It's an On Letting Go Bside. Basically they decided not to put it on the album, so they're using it to help Invisible Children.

  81. T.... ....

    im stoked for their new album :D

  82. z.... ....

    yeah man theyre writing it now. if you go to their myspace and look at their blog, they have videos of them in their rehearsal space with ideas and recording and shit. i cant wait!!1

  83. S.... L....

    OLG tells a story through music.
    every song on OLG is like a chapter in a book, this song wouldnt have fit in with the story imo

  84. T.... ....

    hah im sorry :(
    you should have gotten to the song alot earlier.

    now you're only option is to pirate it.
    it wouldnt really matter anymore since the song isnt available for purchase anymore.

  85. t.... ....

    i like it, it sounds different from their previous stuff. OMFG can they please FUCKING come out with a new album im going crazy here.

  86. s.... ....

    damn anything anthony sings is fuckin awesome.

  87. T.... ....

    you can buy it in the link thats in the description box..

  88. T.... ....

    you're close :'D

    its did fall not would.

    but you pretty much got it.

  89. G.... ....

    If a mountain would fall from the sky

    There'd be a THOUSAND witnesses!

    Is that how it goes?

  90. M.... H....

    Guh.
