LYRICS:
Move one inch at a time.
Don't make shit rhyme.
Would it be easy to repeat the first line?
My mind's not a well;
It won't run dry.
Just keep drinking water and you'll be alright.
This is paralysis with no time at all to let go.
Well don't call me by my full name,
And all this is temporary.
It feels much better to know that you won't feel a thing.
Well don't talk about it;
Write it down but don't ask for help.
I can't be honest with even myself.
Did you ever wish you were somebody else?
Accomplishments are transient.
They pulled me in unremittingly.
Just lasting this long,
I feel relieved to let repetition save me.
Well don't call me by my full name,
And all this is temporary.
It feels much better to know that you won't feel a thing.
Well don't talk about it;
Write it down but don't ask for help.
I can't be honest with even myself.
Did you ever wish you were somebody else?
Move one inch at a time.
You'll be just fine.
Move one inch at a time.
You'll find...
They pulled me in but accomplishments are transient.
They pulled me in but accomplishments are transient.
Well don't call me by my full name,
And all this is temporary.
It feels much better to know that you won't feel a thing.
Well don't talk about it;
Write it down but don't ask for help.
I can't be honest with even myself.
Did you ever wish you were...
Did you ever wish you were...
Did you ever wish you were somebody else?
Just lasting this long,
I feel relieved to let repetition save me
Unremittingly (They pulled me in but) accomplishments are transient
#CircaSurvive #OnLettingGo
My best friend just passed away and his favorite band is circa survive. im so glad he showed me this band and i miss him very much
I know I'm 8 years late but it makes me so sorry to hear that. I hope that it got better. Homie to Homie 👊
Sorry to hear about your loss. 😢
My friend Chris passed away in 09'. Circa was one of his favorite bands too. On letting go and Juturna always give me chills. I wish I could say it gets easier, but it doesn't.
F
💚
the high pitch voice is what makes this band awesome.
Definitely insane how he makes his voice do that.
Anthony Green made this band awesome
No question about it!
It's funny how many people I show this to think it's a woman when they first hear it.
Hello dude @@NathanielBoyce-z3v
This band deserves way more recognition than they currently have.
Facts!!! Circa is so underrated
Yes.
I just recently lost my sister. The album “on letting go” was in her car. And this song in particular helps me feel like she next to me jamming it.
sorry to hear about that, cant imagine that feeling hope you’re okay and if not getting at least better by the day ❤
Hope you're doing ok.
So sorry for your loss. She had amazing taste in music ❤
She's in every note and jamming every time you play it 💚
is anyone else aware of how perfect the two guitars combine in this song, its like the perfect two riff combination to make one amazing riff that blows away anything ever been written since the 70's
I love the geetars
Yeah, this is almost true, even still 12 years later. Except their forerunners at the drive in still existed.
It’s 2020 and I’m still listening to this song when I’m sad
i am not really sad, i just simply vibrate with this. it has been 13 years and i am still tuned. Is kind of crazy listen to this music where i came from, and this is the fact of loneliness
Me too :/
sad during quarantine
Why?
sadness can be one of the most wonderful feelings felt
Getting on a plane for rehab tomorrow morning. A.G is my biggest inspiration
The title of this song never gets old. Anthony Green is simply incredible, but Steve Clifford still amazes me with every album, I personally think he's the best drummer I've ever heard, and I know he idolizes Josh Freese from NiN but at this point I think he's even better than Freese, who is also amazing, but Clifford is just so clean, so precise, and so fast, and he uses temporary changes to really just tie in with the music that also has a ton of tempo changes, always fast slow fast slow fast slow, it just makes for such a unique sound in the end, the only bands that sound anything like Circa have at one time or another all had Green as the lead singer.
Jesse Lacey Never really realized how amazing he was until after reading that. Well said
Have you listened to The Sound of Animals Fighting or RX bandits? Chris Tsagakis is an amazing drummer too. I think Brenden and Colin's guitar chemistry is incredibly underrated.
+Jesse Lacey didn't even know josh freese played for those bands to. I always thought he just played for the vandals. circa baby !!
Not tempo changes, just simple meter changes. Still tasteful though
completely different style but you should check out Ray Hearne from the band Haken hes one of the most insanely talented drummers Ive ever heard
The line "my mind's not a well, it won't run dry" hints that he has a lot of problems and that they won't be ending anytime soon, giving him an endless source of writing material.
when he says "accomplishments are transient" i think he's talking about his bands popularity and success. It doesn't matter how successful he gets or how happy he makes his fans, he's not getting help for his problems so his life isn't going to get any better.
Super Sophisticated and super depressing found ways to be subtle and express being an emo with intelligence that’s kinda a waste and shows nothing to be sad for. Really life is shitty now like that you’ve got a lot more than others but that’s an example how others say this like it helps. I’m glad I can say that it doesn’t make anything better how someone else is shittier or better doesn’t help me nor does it mean I’m ungrateful for not comparing it or using it to either force myself to be toxic and envious or happy to be shitty still if you know what you want changed go change it work in it and forget what others say u can understand it but why. It’s known now that no understanding will help people use logic in a illogical way as to what purpose it’s not smart to be smart and act like it isn’t stupid to be okay and justify actions or worse thoughts for what isn’t their fault your fault or your business . Comparing what others have and do not have is not only stupid and toxic , no matter how smart you do it or sound it’s not natural so stop that justification it’s a choice and your petty . Which is also meaning your immature but in a worse way, and this is stupidity and nothing that you feel is right . Also to say others are ungrateful to not compare is also toxic because your forcing them to do what your doing but you do it for opposite reasons of comparing to be unhappy to what you lack . I swear Jealous and hateful hoe niggas complain how I’m ungrateful or complain because I have more than others do, yet they don’t have that mindset that I am supposedly ungrateful for lacking and I can see that but what does it do that’s good. I don’t need to compare to knkw what could be worse I don’t need to even think of other people and what they got to see how I’m in a ranking of what I can or cannot feel to what all is made up by you in ur head and stupid as shit. Then you got the obvious problem of comparing in general if you do it or succumb to that justification to be unhappy for others happiness. No friend is jealous or truly not happy for your good times as they would also be for you. Imagine how many times it’s made normal to know we all get jealous or think I don’t got that or how come this didn’t happen for me etc. it’s all for everything too friends boyfriends girlfriends crushes every fucking event and incident you share with a friend or someone is always using it that way in their head while they congratulate and simultaneously either plot or have feelings for whatever it is toward you like it’s your fault. “Sorry I was just mad because I know my life isnt like this ir whatever didn’t happen tj me or I didn’t get accepted or hired but you did” zNigga is not you or your life. You selfish fucks that make everything about you even for some e else’s entire life incident that has nothing to do wit you probably your sibling or your best friend or whatever which makes it 100x worse. Then cry and complain about others who complain or cry about shut your not even understanding … BY CHOICEz you don’t even notice what choice or that you choose to make it each and every time and say it’s normal . Nigga can’t use they mind for themselves and worry about hating on someone else. That’s probably why your life isn’t panning out even tho your probably better off than I lol jk but really I’m serious and it’s funny you got the luxury and effort for that negativity but don’t for positive and way less effort too. Just know what your doing and how it effects others not by how it effects your feelings it’s truly that simple not cuz you care for them but for yourself and how you are as a person dipshit. Just cause you can care less , wait… THEN CARE LESS AND STFU
During this album, I think they were on the verge of breaking up because of his addictions and shit.. so it makes sense
the explanation is about the economy and the proyects of the world
14 years later and I still go back! Beautifully written even to this day
Why someone hate singer? In my opinion, he's like my hero.I thing he have a powerful voice control.
This song is absolutely incredible... true work of art. Can't believe I'm just discovering this band in 2022. Really wish I had heard of them back in the 2000s
I found these fellas yrs ago... but music's timeless.. so it's fine you found them now all that matters c:
Yeah you missed some great shows. Least you know who they are now
@@ogshawtybus you snapped hw you put that btw , 😆 fw' it
If you only knew the beauty of music these guys had back then as they do now. Yes I'm that old
Welcome! They never get old and I've been listening since the beginning.
"I can't be honest with even myself. Do you ever wish you were somebody else?"
DAn bilvarian or w.e haha
This at least for me strikes a chord. Sometimes can almost make me tear up.
Owksnebrhs so edgy dih DHSm.j auebsjydbdjsbr oh shit that's deep dugdjzydbddy
@@uninspiredhaven7893 in what way is it edgy? He's quoting a line from a song he likes. The only edge I see here is your comment. Careful everyone, the arbiter of good music is here.
@@TheLowest im not going to lie, i hate who i was then, and i apologize for making that comment. If im being honest at the time i didnt know that was a line because i didnt understand the lyrics. I understand i was an asshole and im trying to resolve myself. Have a great day!
I love you, whoever's reading this... stay strong.
I love you too
💚💜🖤🧡
😋
"stay" implies you've been strong in the past tho... well, maybe in a way, we are.
I try, but get put down everytime.
@@moonsuns2941 well, it's not like we have a better option tho. We shouldn't give up completely...
Don't just let the hate win in any way, be good and at least somewhat positive deep inside, even if it won't result in anything. Don't know how unlucky you've been but as long as you haven't died or gone crazy yet and you enjoy your favorite music and stuff, things aren't truly bad, I guess.
Man he's such a good singer
This video is about the social institutions that restrict us from being our true selves. The people in it are removing those things, symbolizing them becoming free of all attachments in our socially controlled world. Great song and video.
I think it's about addiction (I'm stupid, I read your comment wrong I meant the song not the video lol)
I remember first hearing this song and two things stood out to me lyrics and the guitar. Really brings me back to my teen years 😭
❤❤❤😭
I genuinely don't understand why Circa Survive is so underrated.
perhaps its better this way, almost like a secret club :)
@@stevedazombietv885 1.9 million views is not underrated or some secret club.... Literally an icon of the scene and their genre. The band In Fear and Faith literally named themselves after the Circa song of the same name lol
@@Catbus-Driver Dude 1.9 million views in 15 years this video has been up is super small.
@@Childofbhaal Circa Survive and Saosin are two of the bigest bands in this scene....So yeah, maybe 1.9 million views isn't a ton in the grand scheme of music as a whole, but it is for THIS genre. They are not underrated when 99% of the other bands in this scene have 100k views and have said Circa or Saosin inspired them to start playing.
You can definitely say this genre of music is underrated, but not the band. That's just goofy. They've been on the cover of AP half a dozen times over the years and listerally shaped the genre... What rock have you people been living under for the last two decades?
@@Catbus-Driver Even so in the post hardcore landscape they’re small asf. Look at Pierce the veil, sleeping with sirens who have over 100 million views on videos. Even bands like Chiodos and The Fall of Troy have over 5 million viewed videos.
A lot of people kind of wallow in the despair of this song, myself included. But sometimes these words are exactly what I NEED to hear. All of this is temporary.
Everything about this band is genuine and beautiful. Thanks for being here Circa~
Banger, timeless, classic, powerful. What else is there to say?
14 years ago I discovered this song. I've loved circa survive ever since
It’s almost 2023 and this is STILL One of the best albums ever written.
He looks like a mix of Jack Black and Zac Efron in this video :o
i was thinking Ashton Kutcher
i honestly think in some angels he resembles kurt cobain.
Don't forget Jim from the office hahaha
He looks like Q from Impractical Jokers
Jack Black is awesome.
That's why I wear glasses.
gah i've watched this video so many times and it never fails to stop me, slap me around, and remind me to heighten my awareness of my surroundings.
This album is a classic if it was released today it would have just as much or more traction. Such a masterpiece.
Letting Go was a legendary album. still play this song regularly in 2022
2024.
Been about 16 years since I’ve watched this. Feels different and like I’m actually healing.
i could seriously listen to this song on repeat all day.
I'm still here.
And I'm with you ❤
ALWAYS 🤘
Same
This song and band is criminally underrated.
First Circa song I've ever heard around 2009, still hits me in the same way as it did back then.
I’m old af still listening to this 😂🖤🔥🖤🔥🖤
Haha no worries 💞!
I have kids now and get to introduce them to this awesome music ... time always moves on!
Girl me too I love Circa
Circa forever.
You forgot Cultured lol old and cultured 😂
mid 2022 back here, still amazed with this band
i hope this gets a 10 year tour next year
All arround the world... please god hear me out
Boom. Happy birthday, just announced.
emocobra666 going tomorrow
I went yesterday, it was awesome!!
2022 and i listen to this almost every day.
Never heard of these guys till yesterday on a 2 hour drive from a friends. Absolutely amazing song. Gave me the feels as I was driving home.
Welcome in
relevant to this day
Kris Owens I feel like it keeps getting more relevant, but the wordly propaganda machine will be destroyed with it's followers.
Yes. 2020.
yup 2021

Circa Survive una de mis bandas favoritas, mi amor platónico fue Anthony Green.🙌💓
One of my all time most favorite band! Their sound is magic
anthony green has a voice of an angel 🤩🤗🥰 it never ceases to send chills throughout my body while getting goose bumps as well ☺️
Met Anthony after a concert a few year back. Smoked a few cigarettes with him and talked for about 45 minutes. Such a wonderful and humble person.
Fuck me.
Still smoking cigarettes and still listening to this song.
You will feel a thing.
one of my favorite songs ever. it's amazing how anthony can write lyrics that feel like they're just to you, but anyone can relate.
Before Sleeping With Sirens & Pierce The Veil… There Was Circa Survive😏
Still Loving This Band🤘
❤️ From The Philippines..
Saw someone mention this song in the comments of a red jumpsuit apparatus drum cover video and had to check it out. The drumming in this is fucking incredible.
this song is extremely amazing in every single way and to sum it up the video's message is so powerful.
God Circa Survive is amazing.
Their music just gets into me.
Shoutout 2007 comcast on demand for showing me these guys. One of my favorite bands ever. God I wish I were still a kid discovering this for the first time.
Anthony Green is the single most amazing singer I have ever heard in my life... hands down. I would give anything to hear him live, and to just feed off the energy he puts into his songs.
You can feel the passion he has for his music in every note, and in his expression... the sheer power of his lyrics and voice are astounding... This song really puts his talent on display... I could listen to it for hours on end... "Did you ever wish you were somebody else~?"
Lets get a grip.
@@majicogarcia8417 Seriously...he's no Maynard.
@@increasement Akirababe is clearly the singers burner account...
I hope this song is played at Rockville, Jacksonville FL. Next wknd 🙌🏼🌴🙌🏼❤️
you really do revisit the best music when you’re sad
About to be 36 Jan 30th and still love it!never gets old.
this is just..just...UGH! I love this song..THIS IS FUCKING ART!..gives me chills everytime I listen to it
this will never get old for me. so many memories
Such an awesome band!!
Their music is so well thought out and professional.
My favourite right after the receiving end of sirens, i will always love them
Thank you Circa… you saved me in HS… unfortunately a great friend on mine took the wrong dose… this song is a part of me… thank you for such real beautiful music.
Who’s still listening to old circa in 2019 #goodmusic
2020!
Forever
Now in 2020 lol
November 2020 I just wore a t shirt I got from a 10th anniversary concert for juturna today that I got a few years ago.
2021 checkin in!
at first i just acknowledged the band...but now that i've really listened to their stuff i've been in love! the lyrics are amazing and the instruments and vocals are beautiful....
i love the lyrics in this song. i always viewed it as basically a kind of two state/location thing. on the one hand there is someone in an emergency room, or being wheeled there after an overdose, and his friends are saying 'dont call me by my full name,' they don't want to be implicated in the 'poisoning.' on the other hand , the singer is reflecting his distaste and fatigue of the music industry and writing songs, as they are constantly trying to pull him in with fake accolades, and he is tired of having to think of new things and not be repetitive , and possibly thinking about drugs/poisons as an escape.
Chris S. Unplugging from your matrix
I’m still here and always will be and if you’re reading this- Everything will be okay, life will work out for you. ❤
i really hope so :(
Well don't call me by my full name,
And all this is temporary.
(well I remember AG was saying in a interview how it was hard for him when people were calling him Anthony Green(his full name) and he explains how he's not whole band, he's just a piece of the puzzle, so it's only temporary.
Song still goes hard
2023 and just discovered this song.
Im obsessed.
Anthony Green helped me through high school
On Letting Go... Spring 5 years ago... it was the most beautiful spring day when I first heard this... amazing.
my favorite song off this album
I agree. His presence on the stage was outstanding. I'd pay to see them again for sure.
If you're here, welcome home ❤️ I'm glad you're still with us 😊
❤
Circa Survive , can take you to their own world honestly, I love these guys they can Rock out !!!!!
This song is so powerful. That is if you relate to the lyrics..
This song is just beautiful. One of my favorite post-hardcore songs ever
Love the profile picture dude. Steven Wilson is a genius lol
Accomplishments are transient, they pulled me in unremittingly
Loving how big bro got me into this band is badass
Certified hood classic
Only the realest gangstas here
@@carlcardigan6439 fr tho
@@carlcardigan6439 this feels weird
Probably one my fav all-time songs
I heard that Macklemore was an extra in this video. Where is he?
he's at 4:01
yupp, it seems so.
What!?
The most timeless band in history. The only band where I consistently listen to each and every album
It's 2020 and it takes me 11 years to figured out what's this song means, good job circa👍 so fckin relate right now.
What does it mean?
@@dan18ny well at least for me, this song tells about an identity crisis when you do the same things over and over every day and you start thinking, is it safe to step up or change from what you are doing now? because you are starting to see how good the lives of other people are compared to yours.
Its 2018. I have been a fan since 2009 and i gotta say I've loved all your albums up to this day it's a blessing to still have you guys thank you for making amazing music and never change circa never change.
14 years later
glad anthony is in this band!! I LOVE THIS BAND!!
damn came back to this exactly 13 years from the date of the vid whaaaat
This was my favorite band in highschool but I can absolutely say now I did not realize the degree of their talent.
I can now say this is the best song I have ever listened to
As someone who tripped on cough medicine (dxm) regularly as a teen and is now prescribed dxm (auvelity) as an fda approved antidepressant, this title aged well.
I used to trip to DXM and listen to Circa all the time. It pairs so incredibly well
Fuck the doubts mate- it’s all in your head. You CAN make it happen. It’s INSIDE YOU already❤ never give up
I think those tubes represent many different things in society we're controlled by whether it's the thoughts that we've been brainwashed with, the poison in our pharmaceuticals, the poison in our food(aka GMOs, pesticides, preservatives, animals bi-products, etc.), the poison in our air, the negative feelings and thoughts we innocently allow others to infest us with via their unhealthy attachments (masquerading as the "love" we all so desperately desire to give and receive), or any other thing one can fill in the blank with which he is addicted to or has allowed to control his autonomy in any way which as a consequence has altered who he truly is and was meant to be.
*These are my thoughts after one listen. .. I'm sure after I hear this song several times they'll evolve.
*This is also my first time hearing this artist and I find his voice pleasing and it is always sad to see others rip on those things or people they don't particularly like or appreciate. .. don't fucking listen if you don't like it. It really shows how pathetically small some people's lives must be.
You don't have to submit to such things... or let it clutter your mind, its nothing new. funny thing theirs actually more poison in medicine then our food. I think this song goes out to the people who dont like our reality being limited to the world we are in and who wish to escape to a fantasy world
yeah everything is deadly in large amounts but have you ever seen any drug commercial where they show the people smiling and having a great time while they are listing off all the side effects?
jesuslives8 Considering all that you do know, do you know about the Sabbath Day not being Sunday, but rather Saturday? And do you keep the rest of the Laws written in the Torah, regardless of the Christians who lie, saying they are not applicable for today?
You're awesome
>thinks GMOS are poison
Oh the irony
6 years ago I was listening to this on the bus rides home from high school... takes me back.
6 years ago I was listening to this when I'd ditch high school to go numb myself
This brings me back to the days of 240p
I just discovered this band because of this song popping up on a suggested play list. THIS SONG, THIS FRIGGIN DRUMMER, THIS GUITAR AND BASS, THE VOICE, THE WHOLE FRIGGIN ALBUM.....AMAZING! So stoked on this.
2024. Anyone??!
Yep yep❤
Here brotha
Still here!
@@brandonsmith2299🤘
This is music that takes time to truly appreciate
This dude should try out for saosin
this song...this band...pwns everything i have ever known/loved.
Circa survive walked so dance Gavin dance, emarosa, and hail the sun can RUN
Huh? Dgd was out the same time as circa kinda before to. A lot of early dgd songs were just wills old band.
anthony green's voice is a great inspiration. definitely chill-worthy
Well, don't talk about it, write it down, but don't ask for help
I wish I was you
had a vision of this music video from watching years ago. glad the name came to me today
This song doesnt have enough likes.
When I was in a parole program in Juvenile Corrections one of the staff members held a weekly music group.
As I'm digging through an old box of my shit I just found this gem scribbled down in my notes.
Yay me. And so close to when I discovered a new... poison.
The greatest fckn band to ever walk this earth..
So true
