Lyrics:
This building smelled so familiar
I had thought the sense was lost
And in a day dream, I imagined my house
Where all my father's sense of strength was lost
And it's all we have
It's all we have
So find me a place to begin
If I could get this feeling to end
Trembling idle hands
Holding me there
We laugh in the face of love
'Cause nobody's really there
Nobody's real
Desire I would try it either way
We believe in something invisible
The sense of smell that you used all your life
Well now you know your father lied
It's all we have
So find me a place to begin
If I could get this feeling to end
Trembling idle hands
Holding me there
We laugh in the face of love
Because nobody's really there
Nobody's real
And I could never find my way without
But you're already there
And we've, we've come a long, long way without
Without maps in our hands
It's all we have
So find me a place to begin
If I could get this feeling to end
Trembling idle hands
Holding me there
We laugh in the face of love
Because nobody's really there
Nobody's real

I’ve been in prison for 6 years and just got out 7 months ago and I used to play this album at night time and sometimes throughout the day. It’s bringing back memories.

[@georgeromero4842]

Cool story bro

[@nicholashampton838]

Good to hear man, too many people in cages nowadays

[@Hinotefrom183rd]

You used to play this in jail? That’s total respect from me. This is nostalgia to all of us. May god bless you with your release. 💯

[@renzogallegos5877]

That's new

[@dominicdangelo4801]

Wit u man.... Been down a few times

[@DarkSentencer]

This music has kept me alive some days... Can't imagine life without it

[@jupiter9287]

My uncle was really into this band when he was my age so I guess it's funny that I'm into the same band at the exact same age he was when he was into the band. He was 15 when this album was released (and when I was born) and I'm 15 now and I love this album :)

[@mck7646]

I was 17 when this album came out, brings back great memories.

[@michelles.6466]

You and your uncle have great taste. I was 15 when Juterna came out and a guy I was really interested in played the entire album for me one day and that was it-- I was hooked on Circa and still am.

[@TJmusic24]

The first time I saw them was in 07 I was 16 .. man seems like yesterday.. time moves too fast

[@elderbat3333]

I feel so oooooold

[@Sharkbait89ji]

Lmao... someone please tell me that the math is wrong and this album didn't come out 15 years ago....

[@mk47k__]

I found my my way back Circa🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@TheLinkremmy]

Amen brother 🙏

[@powdaboi]

Listening again, years later, when I'm in such a better much happier place. These jams definitely got me through it. Keep your heads up homies, better days are ahead

[@renzogallegos5877]

Better days will come. By the way this is the best comment in these videos

[@franciscojimenez-dt1zs]

Don't lie to me

[@NostalgiaX77]

Brings back bitter sweet memories....nostalgia 🥺

[@jheanmarcovasquez3422]

So true

[@sovndscvpe]

Circa is absolutely beautiful

[@eegee2442]

Damn I was at the dispensary and heard this song playing thru their speakers. Thanks to whoever was playing this ❤️

[@marcobarrientos4953]

01:26 Favorite part, the guitars, the lyrics, everything. I've been listening for like 14 years and I'm still noticing "new" subtle sounds in the same songs.

[@Hinotefrom183rd]

I remember when I was starting to skateboard around 13 years old going to middle school with my homies who does tech decks with the textbooks. Hearing this, brings me back to my emo days. I miss these times. Glad to find this again.

[@thiagowwz]

My favorite from this album! Such a revival feeling listening to this now on 2020! 😊

[@niaaa9815]

This is my favorite thank u do to my friend in high school who introduced this band to me . They are amazing

[@ELeugeneEL]

This is my summer anthem, after my first year of college away. I worked on a vegetable farm an hour North of Detroit. This was a summer full of hard work, graduation parties, and ephedrine. I burned this album up that summer of 2007 in my ‘02 Mercury Sable 6 disc changer in the trunk.

[@krisjordan4331]

man everyone did their part on this song. from the vocals, bass, guitar and especially the drums. it all just connects to each other so perfectly, favorite song off this album. best part of song is the bridge around 2:20

[@devontedamoi]

The starting sounds heavenly

[@ggarsia1343]

This song is so good ❤

[@merdith6]

I saw them play this album in Houston. Unbelievable how much energy they had. I really could not believe what I saw. Power grace and stamina. The drummer is really good.

[@lluviaysol1673]

En épocas de depresion siempre vuelvo a circa

[@Childofbhaal]

Something random that I really appreciate is you can tell that when Anthony sings “To end” it’s different every time. Listen closely and you’ll tell. They could have easily done it once and popped it into all 3 lines but instead he clearly did it 3 separate times and it just adds something to me. I appreciate that level of effort 1:06 1:58 2:50 For reference

[@wazzzzzzzzupppppppppp3007]

Great song! nostalgic!

[@vandriklight9394]

im at the office, happy, but wanting to cry because of how much this song makes me feel so many emotions... Circa :D

[@MrChex27]

Hey mister dislike, how dare you dislike this song if u listen to it and it doesn’t pull ur heart then ur dead inside. This one the greatest songs I’ve ever heard!

[@AxLZ1]

The best song in this album!

[@moonsuns2941]

Pure love!!!

[@oofcide336]

Holy shit this song bangs

[@ChrisBurns24]

2:40 gives me goosebumps

[@BarbieDeLaFortuna]

Miss you guys!!! I hope the new projects are swell 🤘🏽

[@belajaryoutube6749]

[@adaisychain4azathoth]

This building smells so familiar, I had thought the sense was lost And in a daydream I imagined my house where all my father's sense of strength was lost.

[@ApolloConti]

This building smells so familiar.

[@Sairdtokyo]

This is my sound track

[@javascriptkiddie2718]

This right here 2:20

[@invalidletterdept2662]

Yes

[@AxLZ1]

I think this song in certain way is the secuel of Seven Years by Saosin

[@gladysperez661]

Nicely done

[@candacelunford7245]

This building smelled so familiar Well, I had thought the sense was lost And in a day dream I imagined my house Where all my father's sense of strength was lost It's all we have It's all well So find me a place to begin If I could get this feeling to end Trembling idle hands holding me there We laugh in the face of love 'Cause nobody's really there Nobody's real Desire - I would try it either way We believe in something invisible The sense of smell that you use all your life Well, now you know your father lied It's all we have So find me a place to begin If I could get this feeling to end With trembling idle hands holding me there We laugh in the face of love 'Cause nobody's really there Nobody's real And I could never find my way without But you're already there And we, we've come a long, long way without Without maps in our hands It's all we have So find me a place to begin If I could get this feeling to end Trembling idle hands holding me there We laugh in the face of love 'Cause nobody's really there Nobody's real
