Circles Of Confusion Lyrics

Circles Of Confusion lyrics

Words and music by John Kay and Michael Palmer



I don't need your approval, I ain't lookin' for your vote

I've been strugglin' just like you, tryin' to keep myself afloat

You know your kind of trouble is just like mine

Circles of Confusion everywhere you turn

Shelter your illusion

Hold onto your dreams or watch them burn



I don't find it amusing, I ain't funny anymore

To be runnin' in this race, with my feet nailed to the floor

I got no time for jokes, no time for clowns

Still there's another one each time I turn around

Circles of Confusion everywhere you turn

Shelter your illusion

Hold on to your dreams or watch them burn



I know you got your bruises from fighting with your pride

I've been beaten down myself tryin' to keep my dream alive

We got knocked down before, down for the count

Still we're a long way off from being counted out

Pockets of Resistance, scattered everywhere

We can go the distance

We can find the way to take us there



I will not run and hide

I shall ride the rising tide

I will not be denied



Circles of Confusion everywhere you turn

Shelter your illusion, hold on to your dreams or watch them burn

Pockets of resistance, scattered left and right

We can go the distance

We can find a way to win the fight
