compendium
i cant get started from the part where i left off yesterday should of spent my time a little wiser now i must compare the consequence end my life or just confess i tried for so long to be what you needed all my life passing before my eyes all the time i was awake its the loneliest place where all our confidence kept us behind a shield only light could get through how does it all work with so many artist and nobody wants to get behind the wheel who’s the one pounding the gears
a poem built out of lyrics for songs
for for our next album -

August 24th, 2009 at 12:12 am
Can’t wait to hear the music that goes with these. I will be expecting nothing less that astounding!
Quick question – any idea if Esao is going to be doing the album art again?

Pins and Needles, gentlemen…..Pins and Needles
I mostly love everything you do and I doubt this album will change anything. I wear my homemade CIRCA-is-L♥VE shirt frequently and I love when old ladies ask me and I get to tell them who you are and why they need to know you.
August 24th, 2009 at 2:56 am
i love it all
August 24th, 2009 at 3:11 am
It’s… a little depressing. But I love it anyway.
Looking forward to the album, of course.
August 24th, 2009 at 3:15 am

Nice lyrics
August 24th, 2009 at 9:33 am
“It’s the lonliest place”=Frozen Creek?
August 24th, 2009 at 11:49 am
should have*
August 24th, 2009 at 12:02 pm
I feel like these lyrics are just your thoughts on writing music and trying to pioneer something that’s been already been done and the frustration behind it. And because you guys rule, you’ll make that common thought all you’re own and something new to everyone else.
one love
August 24th, 2009 at 12:09 pm
Amazing:) I cannot wait for the album, I’m beyond excited!
August 24th, 2009 at 12:29 pm

August 24th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
where all our confidence kept us behind a shield only light could get through
August 24th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
beautiful and deep guys. i love your lyrics especially when it starts to get real deep and not like other songs. KUDOS BOYS!!!
August 24th, 2009 at 6:51 pm
I just have to tell you guys, that your inspire me everyday with the music you write. And these lyrics are just proof of how amazing your next album is going to be.
Even after having listened to your songs hundreds of times, they still are able to take on a new meaning every time I listen to them. They adapt to the situations in life so perfectly and so seamlessly that they have become an essential part of my own life.
Thank your for your inspiring music, and please keep on creating music that defies the mainstream and invokes real emotion in all of us.

I noticed the grammatically incorrect way of saying “should have” in the paragraph. No harm, but I thought you all should know..
Can’t wait for the album, guys. Keep it up. :]
August 24th, 2009 at 11:58 pm
circa survive updates and i JIZZ IN MY PANTS
August 25th, 2009 at 11:30 am
hey! i know you don’t read the message boards so read this shit.
if you change the type of girls shirt you are printing on you will sell a lot more!
we want to look good repping your shit!
so make some v necks and tighter shit!
PLEASE! ive custom made about 3 circa shirts for myself because yours are too boyish!
August 25th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Woop!
Call me stoked, I sort of like the pessimism in these lyrics. Could make some powerful music.
Keep up demz skillz Anthony, hope all is well with the band.
August 25th, 2009 at 4:19 pm
well good stuff.
make it happen!
tour utah soon!
August 25th, 2009 at 6:53 pm
haha, i don’t mind wearing boy-styled circa shirts. but i like the looks of this. and i agree with the guy who says he jizzes his pants every time you guys post an update. but for me it’s like the build up ..ya know, getting us all more and more excited so that by the time the album finally comes out, we’re just going to fucking EXXXPLODE. i like it
August 25th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
Hurry I’m soo excited! I’ve been anticipating this album for forever now! AhAAHHHHH! ;]] I dunno but i just can’t wait sounds soo smexy
August 25th, 2009 at 8:09 pm
This is so good! i can almost hear a voice singing as i read
August 25th, 2009 at 9:20 pm
Please please please come to/near Indiana.
August 25th, 2009 at 10:36 pm
the first line reminds me of 15 step! thanks for not giving me confidence on the quality of the record. id expect nothing less than the best. love you guys.
August 25th, 2009 at 10:40 pm
i meant to say “thanks for giving”, NOT “not giving.” i sound like an asshole now
August 26th, 2009 at 4:54 pm
Waiting on a new studio update guys….
August 26th, 2009 at 4:55 pm
^^^ Not to say I take them for granted
August 26th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
i like it a lot.
thanks for all of the recent video updates & whatnot. i know creating a new album is a heavy workload, and to be making these feature-film-quality-sneak-peaks is the coolest move a band could ever make. the song in “ssolata” brought me to tears, and “tneccanrehtuosekaf” looks like the greatest music video ever. the person who filmed the creekhouse videos should direct your next music video.
p.s: they say when
August 27th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
i fall asleep to your music every night..
and i look forward to this new album everyday.
August 27th, 2009 at 3:40 pm
grate but get back to work
August 28th, 2009 at 12:06 pm
does a new album mean tour?
san antonio loves you
143!
marvelous words.

turn your eyes to the inside, turn your eyes around so we wont be angry and waste their time. eyes possesed and spinning white as inner vision remains. leaving the self to breathe, to hang. caring not for time or shitshine. slow down and see your guts and as for yourself. become what you need to be

Articifium
as i see it from this point -all eyes on the magician
and little to no concern of the trap door …
or the rabbit and how fast it can run
.. until its to late
its not the work its the worry. still i can hardly tell them apart.
i was wrong about everything i ever thought i ever wanted.
it was all just a feeling
and nothing else
-nothing
September 1st, 2009 at 3:46 pm
The anticipation builds, yet I can hardly wait to see what this album has in store. Keep up the amazing work!
September 4th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
I just came.
September 7th, 2009 at 9:49 pm
I owe you all for saving my life!
October 21st, 2009 at 10:21 am
I can’t express how fucking excited I am right now. I hadn’t ever seen this post, but now my mind has been blown so hard my genitals inverted.
Oh, but hey, I’ve got a little question.
1,000 Witnesses, do you think you could shed a little light on it’s meaning?
My interpretation is that people just go on with their day witnessing things they know aren’t right, but decide to do nothing about it as if they never saw it happen… But I don’t know how I feel on that. I guess everyone is titled to their own opinion as to what they think the song is about, but I was just wondering what you were aiming for when writing it…
Thanks!
