Circa Survive - Living Together Lyrics






It starts out like a season in reverse
A way to set your mind above and over words
Attached means identity
Erases things so how can we record?

Distress call code-word is I wanna live
He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
To places he can only hide in other peoples minds
He makes it up as it goes
It goes away

Your rational mind's insane
Taste the sound you make
When the light from the sun
It's the story that never gets sold
When the light from the sun, it is your mother

Attached means identity
Erases things so why should we...

Distress call code-word is I wanna live
He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
To places he can only hide in other peoples minds
Uh, he makes it up as it goes

With an effortless smile you pervade to be
And in-between aisles
They would say you stare to see
With an effortless smile you pervade to be
Always in-between aisles
Optimistic daring me
would you trade your soul for gold?
Would you trade your soul?
Would you trade...

    12 years ago I saw this band for the first time with a friend of mine. We were so excited the whole way to the venue. It was truly one of the greatest nights ever. 3 days ago I found out that my friend passed away and Ive been listening to this song on repeat because it reminds me of all the stupid shit we did together and this album was almost always playing in the background while we did them. RIP Taylor.

  14. A.... L....

    11 years later and still the same feeling

  15. P.... v....

    Such a unique band, their sound with Anthony’s voice and lyrical poetry is so perfect. 💚

  16. M.... C....

    This songs guitar riffs are a diamond in the rough. All around great fucking song.

  17. m.... ....

    And holy shit!!! This was the song I thought right before thinking should I take the gold and guess what, it was satan trying to steal my soul for gold and thank God in the name of everything holy, I said no to her skimpy snake bites of gold that evil vermin haven't seen Loraine since, Amen

  18. m.... ....

    Blasted this perfect album On my way! Circa Survive rocks my socks!

    Saw these guys in concert last week. Honestly spot on live. Anthony is one hell of a vocalist.

  30. P.... W....

  35. A.... C....

    [Verse 1]
    It starts out like a season in reverse
    A way to set your mind above and over words
    Attached means identity
    Erases things, so how can we record?

    [Chorus]
    Distress call, code-word is I wanna live
    He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
    To places he can only hide in other people's minds
    He makes it up as he goes
    It goes away

    [Verse 2]
    Your rational mind's insane
    Taste the sound you make
    The light from the sun
    It's the story that never gets sold
    The light from the sun, it is your mother
    Attached means identity
    Erases things, so why should we?

    [Chorus]
    Distress call, code-word is I wanna live
    He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
    To places he can only hide in other people's minds
    He makes it up as he goes
    It goes away

  36. M.... M....

    10 years later.... damn circa. making me feel all kinda things.

  37. D.... ....

    1 of my FAVORITE songs... ONE

  38. M.... G....

    the intro sounds like an elephant. song is pretty epic

  39. C.... S....

    It changes so much when you go to their concert and scream your lungs out and come back to listen to the album and have the feeling of euphoria and more connection

  40. J.... ....

    Will be seeing this band live tonight in San Diego. Have been listening to them since middle school, I'm now 25 years old. Have yet to see them. It's gonna be awesome!

    J.... ....

    and were they what you expected?

  41. R.... R....

    The first chorus always gives me goosebumps with that last line "It Goes Awaaayyyy"

  42. x.... ....

    favorite circa album. so excited for their new album

  44. M.... R....

  48. G.... ....

    so excited to see them in march <3

  49. G.... P....

    today in band, my band director played this song while we were setting up. I instantly fell in love with this band. me and my band director share music interest so yay. btw I'm a 7th grader

    G.... P....

    Man...I’m 26. It’s so nice to see young kids still loving Circa.

    G.... P....

    @Jack Kelly, I'm a lawyer hey stop diddling Charlie alright bud

    G.... P....

    Hell yeah dude! I think this came out when I was 17 (2007?) And now im 29 y.o. You should really check out their other stuff. Then go back and listen to earlier Saosin in if you like slightly heavier music, then go check out The Sound of Animals Fighting if you like slightly weirder stuff. They all feature Anthony Green as a lead vocalist. ✌💜

    G.... P....

    My best friend showed me this when it came out, he's a band director now. Is it a 26 year-old guy who's last name starts with a G?

  50. r.... ....

    reminds me of being 20 years old

  51. A.... K....

    This album will forever remain timeless.

    A.... K....

    Alabama Kush It doesn’t get old. Never gets old. Neither does Juturna.

  52. A.... P....

    damn this band is so gnarly

  53. D.... J....

    I literally feel like I'm back in 7th grade...9 years later and this song is still so fucking good

    D.... J....

    will always be good

    D.... J....

    You man, are not wrong whatsoever haha bring back the hacky sack in hallways between periods and nothing to do with your life besides cause a ruckus haha

    D.... J....

    holy fuck i also listened to this album in 7th grade

    i went on a trip to pennsylvania for some museum and it was like 3-4 hours away and i remember listening to this whole album... 7th grade bruh i dont think any other kid back then listned to circa survive lol

  54. r.... m....

    great band for some reason when i first heard them i did not like it but it grew on me and now i love it same thing happened with other bands

  55. E.... H....

    This album as a whole is one of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard. Every song is excellent top to bottom, and many of them have such surreal sections. This band is extremely unique.

    E.... H....

    precisely

    E.... H....

    Bsn and anything after is so shitty doe.

    E.... H....

    I love all their music. This album was the best but I love all albums. Heard first album in 2005 when I was 15. His first band saosin is good too

  56. m.... f....

    My ex used to listen to this band in her car and I would take interest in some of their stuff, but since we broke up I've avoided this band because it reminded me of her, but I finally searched them and damn I like this stuff. I wasn't originally a fan of Anthony's voice as it kinda sounds unnatural while looking at the dude. The production quality is superb, it has me trying to figure out how to get this drum sound ESPECIALLY the snare. I'm gonna have to go buy this album.

    m.... f....

    Brandon Yancar exes bro.... mine got a really good tattoo of this album cover.

    m.... f....

    Now I am a full on fanatic of this band, I own every album and most of Anthony's solo stuff. I'm happy I gave them a chance

    m.... f....

    I was introduced to Circa by a cousin, at first I thought of a pudgy cute girl with dyed hair and piercings at vocals. Then I asked her who was at vocals, and showed me a pic of Anthony. All I could say was "Puta la weá".

    m.... f....

    Oh, he makes it up as it goes away.

    Distress call code word is "I want to live".

  57. V.... O....

    It starts out like a season in reverse
    A way to set your mind above and over words
    Attached means identity
    Erases things so how can we record?

    Distress call code-word is I wanna live
    He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
    To places he can only hide in other peoples minds
    He makes it up as it goes
    It goes away

    Your rational mind's insane
    Taste the sound you make
    When the light from the sun
    It's the story that never gets sold
    When the light from the sun, it is your mother

    Attached means identity
    Erases things so why should we...

    Distress call code-word is I wanna live
    He makes it up as it goes, it goes away
    To places he can only hide in other peoples minds
    Uh, he makes it up as it goes

    With an effortless smile you pervade to be
    And in-between aisles
    They would say you stare to see
    With an effortless smile you pervade to be
    Always in-between aisles
    Optimistic daring me
    would you trade your soul for gold?
    Would you trade your soul?
    Would you trade...

    V.... O....

    it's a story that never gets old?

    V.... O....

    (live) “WOULD YOU GIVE IT AWAY FOR NOTHING?!”

  58. S.... S....

    This was a spring album for me, juturna for winter.

  59. g.... ....

    I can't tell if the singer is male or female

    g.... ....

    @gogolplex74 Really? I frankly find it quite distinguishable. A lot of male singer have a rather high pitched voice. Take your pick; Anthony Green, Claudio Sanchez, Donovan Melero, James LaBrie, you name it.

    g.... ....

    @gogolplex74 both and neither

    g.... ....

    like every post hardcore vocalist to live

    g.... ....

    Luchas Amadeus Donovan melero sounds very close to Anthony Green. It's quite weird actually

  60. K.... ....

    Sometimes I hear Hayley Williams in his voice. 1:19 "It goes away" for example. 😁

    K.... ....

    But Anthony is actually good at singing

    K.... ....

    He's amazing, no doubts.

    K.... ....

    +Kennykenny that's unfortunate

    K.... ....

    @Kyle Heinz I don't think it is xD

    K.... ....

    I heard it, too

  61. E.... P....

    I want to explain how great this band is, but I'm dumbfounded. 

    Much emotion v chill v rare

    E.... P....

    @Ernesto Panza They're like... well.. huh. They're fucking amazing? Idk, that doesn't do enough justice. The scary part is that they're even better live. I gott to see them and it completely blew my mind how great they were. The whole place just had this energy around it i couldn't explain but i'd never seen a show like that before.

    E.... P....

    @childofbhaal which live show did you see? most of the ones I seen anthonys voice was fucked up and kept cutting out everytime he went for a high note

    E.... P....

    @Richard St Claire I saw one this year in Palatine IL. Anthony's voice takes a lot of strain live with Circa but if you listen to his solo stuff where he just sits in a chair and sings he sings perfectly. The energy gets to him. 

  62. E.... ....

    I drew the cover art for this album as an open final before I even listened to it haha. It's like I knew I would love it before I heard it

  63. E.... E....

    Most underrated band out there. One of my favorites.

  64. e.... ....

    I'll listen to this album until I die.

  65. s.... ....

    Circa never fails me.

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

    This album is their best. When I listen to it, emotions bubble up.
    MDMA saves lives.
    <3

    M.... R....

    This album was made for the rainy fall and winters of Seattle. 

  67. J.... H....

    This album is perfect for autumn and winter in Seattle. 

    J.... H....

    @ZECTOR TEAM5 AHAHAHAHA

    J.... H....

    I agree, Juturna is 100% a winter album. I kind of equate Blue Sky Noise with fall and Halloween, but that's just me. I also think On Letting Go is amazing any time of year.

    J.... H....

    I just spent last winter on Seattle. And I swear I wouldn't have made it without circa and whiskey. Last thing i did in Seattle was go see circa live. Rick on brother. Stay strong. Seattle winter is terrible

    J.... H....

    I live there, so yeah

  68. I.... s....

    i LOVE this song . follow me on twitter  @Scotti__Boi

  69. D.... ....

    Used to like this album a lot more than I do now, but it's still decent. I see how people say that Circa Survive are overrated up to Blue Sky Noise, because that's the first CS album that I really enjoyed.

    D.... ....

    List wouldn't be too far from what mine is.

    D.... ....

    @Molly Ringwald switch blue sky and beautiful things and that's 100% correct

    D.... ....

    #1: On Letting Go
    #2: Blue Sky Noise
    #3: Juturna
    #4: Violent Waves
    #5: Beautiful Things
    #6: Avalon
    #7: Descensus


    Although they are all great albums, the guitar work and drums are far too beautifully complex and masterly proficient to be behind Anthony Green's solo work, with the exception of Descensus... Album just didn't grow on me as much

    D.... ....

    You all have horrible taste if any albums are ahead of jaturna and on letting go. They turned so commercial after these two albums. Bsn is hardly circa survive and anything after isn't even worth a listen

    D.... ....

    4 months late but who cares. I hope you have realized that's a really dumb opinion to hold. This band has been around for like 10-15 years. They're going to change. Especially when he sobered up. He's still an artist, but he's not a kid anymore.

  70. r.... ....

    I used to be a cashier at the grocery store shoprite and I'd wake up a few hours before my shift, sat on the floor and listened to this entire album (or juturna) almost every day. got me through some shit....

    r.... ....

    Are you from nj / ny?

    r.... ....

    Good on you hope you're better

    r.... ....

    Similar story except I worked at a 76

  71. p.... ....

    That guitar tho on the chorus uggggh

    p.... ....

    ptrek22 exactly!!!!!

  72. M.... ....

    damn good song.

  73. N.... F....

    With an effortless smile you pervade to be..

  74. F.... ....

    You mean Cedric, right?

  75. t.... ....

    My dad said I was. ):

  76. H.... M....

    Sometimes, he reminds me Omar Rodriguez from The Mars Volta...

  77. N.... ....

    You and me both bro

  78. J.... R....

    I DONT GIVE A FUCK. this is the best son ever made.

    J.... R....

    i agree

  79. J.... D....

    your rational mind's insane.

  80. M.... ....

    THEY WOULD SAY YOU STARE TO SEEE

  81. M.... A....

    IT GOES AWAY

  82. r.... p....

    if this song had kids, there would be no gingers.

  83. n.... ....

    this is my favorite CS album by far

  84. E.... S....

    even though your rational mind is insane

  85. c.... ....

    Dat voice~~~~

  86. p.... ....

    but then it just goes away

  87. L.... ....

    Distress call code word is "I wanna live!"

  88. H.... S....

    then they asked me, "would you trade your soul for gold?"

  89. O.... C....

    I didn't get it until the lyrics started hahaha

  90. E.... R....

    saw them live a couple years ago with deftones. i got all of deftones autographs but none of circa :(

  91. S.... ....

    the light from the sun is your mother

  92. D.... ....

    Amazing. <3

  93. R.... S....

    dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  94. a.... ....

    its a dude, i heard them on pandora first and i was like, thats a nice voice that girl has. but its a dude. its good all the same though.

  95. J.... A....

    I'm highly intoxicated :)

  96. L.... ....

    wait can i ask something ?? the singer was a girl o a boy? D:
