Circumstances Lyrics - Icon 2 - Rush

A boy alone and so far from home 

Endless rooftops from my window 

I felt the gloom of empty rooms 

On rainy afternoons. 

Sometimes in confusion 

I felt so lost and disillusioned 

Innocence gave confidence 

To go up against reality. 

All the same 

We take our chances 

Laughed at by time 

Tricked by circumstances

Plus ca change 

Plus c'est la meme chose 

The more that things change 

The more they stay the same. 

Now I've gained some understanding 

Of the only world that we see 

Things that I once dreamed of 

Have become reality. 

These walls that still surround me 

Still contain the same old me 

Just one more who's searching for 

The world that ought to be. 

All the same 

We take our chances 

Laughed at by time 

Tricked by circumstances 

Photos 

Plus ca change 

Plus c'est la meme chose 

The more that things change 

The more they stay the same.
