"The Outer Ring" lyrics

"The Outer Ring"

The light from the mountain
That we used to stand in's gone out
And now we've got to venture down again
But it's so demanding
Just to keep standing
When it's the same road down that never seems to end

'Cause all that we've been through
Meant nothing to you
I know what I'll do

Cast out
Off to the outer ring
Now I don't feel a thing
Only you could have saved me
Lights out
Off to the outer ring
Now I don't feel a thing
You know you could have saved me

When the sky was falling
I saw you crawling the ground
Just to grab all the stars that fell down
I'm burning the bridge
To keep it in the past
But it's hard to bite the bullet
When you've been shot in the back

'Cause all that we've been through
Meant nothing to you
I know what I'll do

Cast out
Off to the outer ring
Now I don't feel a thing
Only you could have saved me
Lights out
Off to the outer ring
Now I don't feel a thing
You know you could have saved me

You know you, you know you
You know you could have saved me
You know you, you know you
You know you could have saved me
You could have saved me
But now I'm free

Cast out
Off to the outer ring
Now I don't feel a thing
Only you could have saved me
Lights out (Lights out)
Off to the outer ring
Now I don't feel a thing
You know you could have saved me

You could have saved me
You could have saved me
