Background

On September 28th, 2009, Dead By Sunrise went to the radio interview program Rockline.[1] There, a fan called in and asked about the meaning of "Walking In Circles".[2] Chester said the song was about not being a sheep in society, and having your own thoughts and your own views, and feeling separated from the rest of society because of this.[3] "Walking In Circles" was among the first batch of songs written for the album, being mentioned back in 2005.[4]

Demo

On March 20, 2018, Chester's birthday, a CD of nine Out of Ashes demos was released by LPLive and LinkinPark:br. Recorded at some point between 2005 and 2007, "Walking In Circles" is the first song on the CD.

Lyrics

Album Version

Quiet, everyone's sleeping through life
Afraid that their questions just might have answers
Quiet, everyone's shut off their minds
So I'll turn on mine

Alone in a world with millions of souls
Walking in circles
Trapped in their dreams; unhealthy, unclean
Walking in circles
Now, do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping

Quiet, we're living inside of our mouths
Afraid someone just might hear what we're thinking
Quiet, careful of what you might say
'Cause they'll put you away

Alone in a world with millions of souls
Walking in circles (walking in circles)
Trapped in their dreams; unhealthy, unclean
Walking in circles
Now, do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping

Alone in a world with millions of souls
Walking in circles (walking in circles)
Trapped in their dreams; unhealthy, unclean
Walking in circles
Now, do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping

(Walking in circles now) Alone in a world with millions of souls
(Walking in circles now) Walking in circles
(Walking in circles now) Alone in a world with millions of souls
(Walking in circles now) Walking in circles
No / Do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping

Demo Version

Quiet, everyone's sleeping through life
Afraid that their questions just might have answers
Quiet, everyone's shut off their minds
So I'll turn on mine

Alone in a world with millions of souls
Walking in circles
Trapped in their dreams; unhealthy, unclean
Walking in circles
Now, do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping

Quiet, we're living inside of our mouths
Afraid someone just might hear what we're thinking
Quiet, careful of what you might say
'Cause they'll put you away

Alone in a world with millions of souls
Walking in circles
Trapped in their dreams; unhealthy, unclean
Walking in circles
Now, do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping

Alone in a world with millions of souls
Walking in circles
Trapped in their dreams; unhealthy, unclean
Walking in circles
Now, do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping

Alone in a world (Alone in a world)
Walking in circles
Alone in a world (Alone in a world)
Walking in circles
Do not disturb
Screaming silence, everyone's sleeping
