Cry
Zug Izland Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ringmaster's eyes
Funhouse will rock
those boys don't lie
Immortal fear
it's voice so clear
Through broken walls
Cry little sister
Come, come to your brother
Unchain me sister
Love is with your brother
Clown masquerade rich boys look up
When will they learn
this loneliness?
Temptation's heat
Milenko's word
Deep in your soul
You cannot lie
Come, come to your brother
Unchain me sister
Love is with your brother
Our shangrila
You can't forget
Always so close
Come to us now
Cry little sister
Come, come to your brother
Unchain me sister
Love is with your brother
Cry little sister
Come, come to your brother
Unchain me sister
Love is with your brother
Cry, little sister
The song "Cry" by Zug Izland seems to be about a circus or carnival, with references to a ringmaster, a funhouse, and clowns. The lyrics speak to a feeling of being trapped and longing for freedom. The singer addresses someone referred to as "little sister" and urges her to come to her brother for love and support.
The first verse sets the stage with the image of a fire rising and the ringmaster's eyes watching over it. The "funhouse" mentioned is likely a reference to the distorted and confusing environment of the carnival. The line "those boys don't lie" could refer to the other performers in the carnival who may be deceiving or lying to the audience in their performances. The second verse introduces the idea of fear, and how the singer can hear the screams of someone through broken walls. This could symbolize a sense of isolation and the feeling of being trapped in a place where one cannot escape.
The chorus is where the singer pleads for "little sister" to come to her brother and be unchained. This could be a metaphor for breaking free from the constraints of the carnival and its performers. The reference to Milenko's word is an interesting insertion, as it could refer to the Joker's Card by the same name from Insane Clown Posse's mythology, which is also heavily tied to the idea of breaking free from illusions and lies.
Overall, the song appears to be a plea for help and escape from a situation that feels trapped and dangerous. The imagery of the carnival and its performers only adds to the eerie and unsettling atmosphere.
