In Circles Lyrics
I hear you buzzing, a fly on the wall
In through the window and up through the hall
Flying in circles, just trying to land
I see you hurting, I do what I can
But I won't save you
I won't save you
Maybe you're looking for someone to blame
Fighting for air while you circle the drain
Never be sorry for your little time
It's not when you get there, it's always the climb
But I won't save you
I won't save you
I won't save you
I won't save you
In through the window and up through the hall
Flying in circles, just trying to land
I see you hurting, I do what I can
I won't save you
Fighting for air while you circle the drain
Never be sorry for your little time
It's not when you get there, it's always the climb
I won't save you
I won't save you

I listened closely to the Instrumental track of this song and noticed something peculiar. When she sings the verse "But I won's save you", the piano picks up at a new, higher and louder tone. It plays a few notes slowly on the same rhythm as one of the songs in the game Bastion. Bastion was Supergiant Games' first game, right before Transistor. In Bastion there are also only a handful of songs with lyrics. The notes played at this part in "In Circles" fits perfectly with the lyrics of Bastion's song "Build That Wall". The Singer sings "Build that wall and build it strong, cuz we'll be there before too long". What do these two songs have in common? Just listen to the Instrumental part at... say, 1:57 in "In Circles and compare it to the rhytm in the Bastion song.
