Evergreen
Circus-P Lyrics

Left alone to his own devices
Abandoned and left without any guidance or assistance.

Waiting around for the tide to rise
In a state of uncertainty, waiting for something to change or happen.

The echo tells him that this room ain't right
The sound bouncing back to him reveals that something is amiss in the environment around him.

Dont sleep on this, its not yet night
Be aware and alert, as the situation has not yet fully developed or reached its conclusion.

A burning dog, a barbed wire fence
Images of destruction and captivity, symbolizing the harsh realities of life.

Your hero is dead, hung from his neck
The person he looked up to or respected has died, likely as a result of violence or injustice.

A bomb explodes, poison in the air
Violent and destructive events that have lasting consequences and affect the entire community.

All of this has happened, Im not sure you care
Despite everything that has occurred, others may not recognize or understand the gravity of the situation.

Well there aint no TV no more
The absence of traditional forms of entertainment or distraction.

No street to stand
A lack of direction or purpose, nowhere to go or nothing to strive towards.

You choose your own reality
The power to shape one's own perspective and experience.

If this ones to bland
If the current state of reality is uninspiring or unsatisfactory.

And theres sex on the screens
Desensitization to sexuality and graphic content in pop culture media.

And the light in our heads
The fading of hope or positivity, mental fatigue.

Its getting dimmer now, Im pretty sure were not dead
Despite the lack of energy or motivation, life still goes on and there is potential for positive change or growth.

And our leaders they are fools
Lack of faith or trust in those in positions of power or authority.

Greedy and undeserving
Perceived selfishness and lack of merit in those in positions of power.

Sidekicks to destruction
Those in power are contributing to negative outcomes and events.

And the profits they are serving
Those in power are motivated by financial gain and not the greater good of the community.

And who would you like to play for And who to hold your hand?
Questions of identity, companionship, and purpose.

Oh, wont you help me? Wont you help me?
A plea for support and assistance during difficult times.

Evergreen dont you understand,
The theme of enduring despite difficult circumstances.

Were the silence that youve become Forgive and forget
The impact of trauma and the struggle to move on and let go of past hurt.

Relax on demand
The desire for instant gratification and escape from the stresses of reality.

Were afraid now of everyone
The erosion of trust and sense of community, a feeling of isolation and suspicion towards others.

Are you as sad as I am?
A sense of shared experience and emotion.

Its hard to understand
The confusion and difficulty in grappling with complex emotions or experiences.

How to carry on existing
The struggle to continue living despite the challenges and obstacles in one's path.

For lack of a better plan.
Feeling adrift or uncertain about the future, with limited options for change or improvement.

Theres music in our hearts
The human capacity for creativity and emotion, providing hope and inspiration.

No dollars you pay in dimes
The intrinsic value of art and expression, which cannot be quantified or measured in monetary terms.

What doesnt have any value?
A rhetorical question that highlights the importance of recognizing the worth and dignity of all aspects of life.

What would you like to buy?
Commentary on consumerism and the temptation to seek fulfillment through material possessions.

Im sick of seeing sinister
Growing weariness with the negativity and darkness in the world around us.

Got love inside my heart
Hope and positivity, despite the challenges and adversity.

Suicide a billion wide
The devastating impact of self-destructive behaviors and thoughts.

Wrong from the start
The recognition that certain events or circumstances were inherently flawed or misguided from their inception.

Try to ignore the sinking ship
The temptation to deny or ignore the reality of negative outcomes, in the hopes of staving off despair or fear.

Drink and stain your liver
Substance abuse as a coping mechanism or escape from reality.

An awful season to give up now
Despite the present difficulties, there is potential for positive change or growth, and giving up now would be a mistake.

Theres more than we can give her.
The recognition that there is always more one can do to contribute to the betterment of the world and the community.
