I used to listen to this song riding my bike to work at 4am in the pnw 10 years ago

'Sometimes it's hard to accept,
When you lose the saddle, not the horse'
Anthony has always written fantastic material for as long as I've been listening to him (literally half of my life at this point) but every now and then he pens something so painfully tangible, so instantly relatable, that it goes through you like a truck and you have to take a moment. This is one of those lines. I almost wish that I didn't understand it on a instinctual level, because it reminds me how I'm still trying to process my story at the same time as trying to live it and move past it and be better than the only archetypes I had for being a (barely) functional human.
I guess I'm just glad that there are people out there like Anthony, willing and able to communicate their own struggles and letting anyone who needs to hear it know that it's ok not to have all the answers yet, or maybe ever.

One of my top Circa songs.

I can't begin to wonder
What you'd think of me
If i could say exactly what i wanted
But i'll bite my tongue
'Cause i know the day will come
When you will see exactly who you are
When you will see exactly who you are
Oh
How is it that we're the same blood
Sometimes it's hard to accept
When you lose the saddle not the horse
Sometimes it's hard to live with
Resentment like this
(Sometimes it's hard to live with)
(x3)
I can't begin to ponder
How quickly you would leave
If you could know exactly what i thought
But i'll never say
Mostly 'cause i'm afraid
And maybe i don't ever want to lose you
Oh i don't ever want to lose you
Oh
How is it that we're the same blood
Sometimes it's hard to accept
When you lose the saddle not the horse
Sometimes it's hard to live with
Resentment like this
(Sometimes it's hard to live with)
(x3)
Is it possible for you to admit you need us
Is it wrong of me to want you to say you never meant to treat us that way
We can forgive you but we won't forget this happened
We can forgive you but we won't forget
Oh
It's the only way
It's the only way
It's the only way that we will be together
(x 2)

[@connerelmes3181]

Whoa what??? Where did this come from

[@connerelmes3181]

Meaning the remaster**

[@Thaligamathor]

It was unreleased and then they cleaned it up

[@Username-ng8jy]

@@Thaligamathor yeah but this version is different from original. That last part doesn’t go that way in the original.

[@Thaligamathor]

@@Username-ng8jy yea hence the cleaned it up part of my comment but it was vague sorry. I'm used to the original but this rocks too

[@Username-ng8jy]

@@Thaligamathor oh no I love this one. Recently going thru some things and heard this again for the first time in years. And kept repeating it all night. I like this version more ironically
