Digital Circus song? Check.
This has been on my to-do list for almost a year now. I started making the song on a livestream. spent the summer working on it(not really), livestreaming it again, then finishing it up. It has been quite the ride.
I am excited that I am getting into the swing of uploading lyrical songs more often, and this is but one of the numerous songs that I, with great pleasure, will bring to your screen.
But enough talking, please enjoy my fabulous Digital Circus song!
ENJOY!

LYRICS:

Living in regret,
Regret the choices that I made,
But there’s no way I can trust,
Anything that seals my fate.
You can try to hide it, down inside,
While faces watch from every side,
But any lie, that’s cut-and-dried,
Is bound to come in with the tide.
How can I hope,
When leaving’s hardly plausible?
Flash a fake smile,
Optimism is impossible.
But am I alone?
But I’m stuck in someone else’s shoes,
Got all my lines,
But I got no time to learn my cues.

Day by day, we play the games,
The sane are forced to play.
Every day, we’re always blamed,
Before they make the guiltless pay,
In this crazy fix, it’s way to strict,
That’s not the fate I’d pick.
All the constant tricks will make me sick,
When can I leave this matrix?

Running from my problems
Till my sanity’s restored.
In this never ending show in which
I’ll never guess my role
I am just a clown,
Who’s falling down,
And no one thinks to look around.
‘Cause all around,
Are circus sounds,
And that is why I wear a frown.
Life feels like a loop,
And I have lost all sense of time.
Everybody’s saying
Everything will probably be fine,
Is it sympathy or empathy?
Or is it just a lie?
The truth is held up to the light,
Don’t overanalyze.

Go one step forward,
But I go two steps back,
Every second brings me closer
To a panic attack.
While the power centralized
In an omnipotent being,
Does whatever it can,
To prevent me from leaving.

Day by day, we play the games,
The sane are forced to play.
Every day, we’re always blamed,
Before they make the guiltless pay,
In this crazy fix, it’s way to strict,
That’s not the fate I’d pick.
All the constant tricks will make me sick,
When can I leave this matrix?

Is it a crime,
To make me long for my prior life?
This circus of lies,
Makes me wanna rewind,
But the only way out,
Is the one thing that I long for,
I must face the harsh reality,
I’ll never find an exit door.

Day by day, we play the games
That force the sane to stay.
Every day, we’re always fighting
For a chance to save our fate.
In this crazy fix, it’s way to strict,
That’s not the place I’d pick.
All the constant tricks
Will make me sick,
I’ll never leave this matrix.
