Circle of Dust was a 1990s Industrial rock band created and run by Klayton (then known as Scott Albert, his birth name) who is now more widely known for his solo band Celldweller. Circle of Dust was, along with contemporaries Mortal and Deitiphobia, instrumental in bringing industrial metal to the Christian alternative metal scene. Circle of Dust spawned numerous offspring projects such as Klank, fronted by Circle of Dust guitarist Daren "Klank" Diolosa; Argyle Park and Brainchild, pseudonymous side bands of Klayton's; and CHATTERbOX, which featured future members of Stavesacre.
Circle of Dust was formed in New York City by Scott Albert after his former late 80s thrash metal outfit Immortal (USA) disbanded. Albert recorded and produced all of the Circle of Dust material himself, and was signed to R.E.X. Records in 1991. The debut self-titled album was released in 1992 and has been described as "post-Pretty Hate Machine industrial pop". That same year, Albert also teamed up with the president of R.E.X., Doug Mann, to create a project called Brainchild while using the pseudonym Tox. The Brainchild album was released with the title Mindwarp in 1992 and was more extreme than Circle of Dust, showcasing dark cyberpunk-esque lyrics that were largely political in nature, and harsher, more thrash-influenced metal guitars. Part of the song ”Deviate” was used as the intro for a long time in the now defunct MTV Sports show. After the release of both albums, Albert also put together a compilation titled Metamorphosis. This compilation, released in 1993, brought together outtakes from Circle of Dust, Mindwarp, and Living Sacrifice's Nonexistent, on which Albert had done some programming work. The compilation also included remixes of songs from each of those three albums done by Albert himself.
Robert Fripp (born 16 May 1946) is an English guitarist, composer and record producer. He was ranked 42nd on Rolling Stone magazine's 2003 list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" and No. 47 on Gibson.com’s "Top 50 Guitarists of All Time". Among rock guitarists, Fripp is a master of crosspicking, a technique often associated with the banjo. His compositions often feature unusual time signatures, which have been influenced by classical and folk traditions. His innovations have included Frippertronics following collaboration with Brian Eno, soundscapes, and New Standard Tuning.
As a guitarist for the progressive rock band King Crimson, Fripp has been the only member to have played in all of King Crimson's line-ups. As a studio musician, Fripp improvised the guitar solo to David Bowie's Heroes, and contributed sounds to the Windows Vista operating system. His complete discography lists more than seven hundred releases over four decades.
Fripp was born in Wimborne Minster, Dorset, England. His earliest professional work began in 1967, when he responded to an ad looking for a singing organist for a band being formed by bassist Peter Giles and drummer Michael Giles, despite being neither a singer nor an organist. Though unsuccessful as a live act, Giles, Giles and Fripp released two singles, as well as an album, The Cheerful Insanity of Giles, Giles and Fripp.[citation needed]
So you regret the last five years of your life with me
Don't you think that I feel the same way too?
Don't you think that I feel the same way too?
Disengage your eyes
At least one moment in time
And soon you will know
Trace the lines on my face
Until you are underneath
It all starts real slow
Walking sleepless through these streets
I don't understand a thing you mean
This relationship is based on what trails across the CD case
And it will all soon come to an end
But if you don't pick up the phone, you will regret it
I've said it before, but this time I mean it
You, you keep telling me that you regret
All the things that we've done
I've tortured you, that I'm willing to admit
Guilt-ridden for those years
Trying to forget, from now on
From now on
I met her at a show
Her dress was stained and her eyes had a glow
There were no lines to trace on her face
But I will make my way underneath
...Perfectly destroyed - perfectly removed
Breathing living death - tasting what i choose
To never be the same - and never to ammend
The dying of a heart - and losing of a friend
Castaway don't forget to crucify and fall prey to the voodoo
what you do what you say and what you play won't release them scars out of you
To your crimes you are slave take to the grave what you coulda shoulda forgave
And forgot what you not and what you'll never be
Deadend for a sucker that's a sucker like me
In my shelter goin helter skelter in my mind
My kind is confined to the disinclined who
Cannot communicate or never seem to fit clean into society's spine
Here's to a life gone before it began
A deadman marathon dead babylon man
(don't forget) what you are and what you'll never be
Deadend for a sucker that's a sucker like me....
I don’t want to disengage
I don’t want to act my age
I don’t want to kick and scream
Is this all just a dream
Disengage
Disengage
I hear you yell I won’t tell
Disengage
Disengage
Disengage
Stop
Bring it back
How many times do I have to say?
I don’t really want to stay
Disengage
Disengage
Disengage
You’re braking up with me
You’re going on a killing spree
You say
Its time to give up
I’m like what the fuck

Mrs Marion is strict with her servant
Behind locked doors over coffee they speak
They speak to my sister and my parents
And I'm trying hard not to shriek
Disengage
Disengage
Disengage
Disengage, disengage
She decodes my secrets and my fragments
I'd create any betrayal for their sake
She asks me to wait in the hallway
Where I'm doing my best not to, not to, not to shake
Disengage, disengage
Disengage
Disengage
Disengage
Muttering words to her
Muttering words to her
Muttering words to her for convenience
I start to head for the door
Mrs Marion screams over my shoulder
Walking out's just another metaphor
With the error that's in my mind
And in my soul
I'm driving blind
I got a picture in the box
That is bringing me to where I am
Yet the eyes are all affixed on you not me
For driving blind
And the first time will be the last time
That you believe
You're falling as you decide
Face down the whole world wide
Before cannot be retrieved
From all the way up here there's no end
I'm flying high
But the worst is never first
And there's a person that'll set you straight
Cancelling the force within my brain
For flying high
The simulator has been disengaged
Indifference begins to take sides
Face down the whole world wide
Before cannot be retrieved
From all the way up here there's no end
I'm flying high
But the worst is never first
And there's a person that'll set you straight
One day there will be no more pain like an opiate wonderland
No more worry, it will all just end
And all our forward movement will finally cease
The human machine will finally bleed
The human machine will finally cease to be
So set yourself free
And disengage from reality [x2]
The grounds will shake and your children will tremble
Soon enough the machine will fall
And we will all crumble
The human machine will finally bleed and cease to be
We'll finally be set free, be set free, be set free
Just be glad you know what life is
Be glad you know
You know what life is [x2]
One day there will be no worry
No more pain, it will all just end
And all our forward movement will finally cease
Disengage it's over
Let me say what's on your mind
"I'm not gonna to try to fix you
A punishment for all your crimes"
She's not gonna try to fix us this time
Everything's turning to dust
All around us
But what if our love was enough
to carry us through?
There's nothing in sight
No one around
All that remains falls in shadows
Yesterday you loved me.
Yesterday it was too easy
to speak, to love, to listen
to everything you had to say
I'm not gonna lose you this way.
Everything's turning to dust
All around us
But what if our love was enough
to carry us through?
There's nothing in sight
No one around
All that remains falls in shadows
Burning alive, I'm burning alive
Burning alive, I'm burning alive
Burning alive, I'm burning alive
Everything's turning to dust
All around us
But what if our love was enough
to carry us through?
There's nothing in sight
No one around
Well it's so sad to see all our good qualities
gradually slipping away and fading
and we better act quick because I'm getting sick
of how much it's becoming degrading
in this age when everything's falling apart
disengage don't think I'm crazy
for not wanting to take part
when morality is defeated
compassion is deleted
all in the name of our desire
and we've got to be blind
or just losing our minds
if we can't see this world's on fire
we've got to disengage
can't you see this age
dragging us down,
down to the ground
we've got to disengage
and I think it's sad that our society's gone mad
possessed by taking more than we need
and our motivation's a sad situation
So you regret the last five years of your life with me
Don't you think that I feel the same way too?
Don't you think that I feel the same way too?
Disengage your eyes
At least one moment in time
And soon you will know
Trace the lines on my face
Until you are underneath
It all starts real slow
Walking sleepless through these streets
I don't understand a thing you mean
This relationship is based on what trails across the CD case
