Vicious Cycle Songtext
von Set It Off

Looking left and right, anywhere but inside
Where the demons dance with my dark desires, yeah
Such a shame, it′s really pitiful
That you would fuck up something beautiful

Weaving every word that I want to hear
Like a symphony passing through my ears
I'm in a state of sleep paralysis
But wide awake and feeling powerless
Yeah

I′m pretending I can't read the writing on the wall

Can't resist, you got me in a
Vice-like grip, I can′t escape it
Every time you pull me right back, right back
A vicious cycle

Round and round, it′s never ending
Can't get out, it′s suffocating
Every time you pull me right back, right back
A vicious cycle


Caught in a slasher film and it ever ends
I escaped you once, but we'll meet again, yeah
I went from optimist to cynical
From unpredictable to typical
′Cause we carved our name in sand
And we can see the tide is rolling in
There's only one way to kill this trend
And it isn′t screaming with these stitched up lips

I'm pretending I can't read the writing on the wall

Can′t resist, you got me in a
Vice-like grip, I can′t escape it
Every time you pull me right back, right back
A vicious cycle

Round and round, it's never ending
Can′t get out, it's suffocating
Every time you pull me right back, right back
A vicious cycle

(Right back, right back)
(Right back, right back)
(Right back, right back)
(Right back, right back)

Someone shake me awake
Say I didn′t cause it all
Would you save me or shame me?
Save your "I told you so's"
Kill-dependence, it′s ending, I'm getting what I want
Now I'm facing and changing the writing on the wall


Can′t resist, you got me in a
Vice-like grip, I can′t escape it
Every time you pull me right back, right back
A vicious cycle

Round and round, it's never ending
Can′t get out, it's suffocating
Every time you pull me right back, right back
A vicious cycle
