The Clown
Navigating the Abyss: A Clown's Journey Through Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Where am going
Feeling uncertain about my destination or purpose.
Following these feet?
Questioning the path I am currently following.
I got so lost I lost my way,
Experiencing a profound sense of disorientation and losing my sense of direction.
In the street I live and lay.
Feeling adrift and disoriented in the environment where I reside.
Forever running
Continuously moving without a clear destination, possibly escaping or avoiding certain aspects of life.
From door to train to sky.
Constantly transitioning from one place to another, uncertain of my final destination.
Never quite knowing
Feeling a lack of understanding about how to exist authentically.
How to be,
Struggling with the concept of identity and self-awareness.
Who am I.
Possibly questioning my own existence and purpose.
Sewing feathers to my back
Attempting to escape reality by attaching unreal or fantastical elements to myself.
So i’d never touch the ground.
Seeking to avoid facing the harshness of reality by avoiding contact with the ground.
But I know better than before
Realizing the futility of my previous attempts and acknowledging a deeper truth about life.
That the only way up is down.
Understanding that facing challenges and going through difficulties is necessary for personal growth.
I played the part
Playing a role or pretending to be someone attractive or appealing to others.
of the Beautiful stranger.
Falsely presenting myself as a captivating and mysterious figure to those around me.
Lying only to myself;
Deceiving myself by not being true to who I really am.
It’s dangerous being someone else.
Recognizing the danger and difficulty of maintaining a false persona.
Scared when unscripted,
Feeling frightened or uneasy when facing unanticipated situations or challenges.
I juggle loaded guns.
Juggling with risky situations, possibly making precarious decisions.
Smiling yet knowing
Smiling outwardly while being aware of the potential consequences and dangers.
I’m fearful of the fun.
Experiencing a mix of fear and enjoyment in engaging with risky or unpredictable experiences.
Draw the curtain, no applause,
Choosing to conceal myself from public view, possibly avoiding judgment or scrutiny.
I am just a clown.
Accepting the role of a clown, acknowledging my own vulnerability and imperfections.
But I know more than before;
Gaining wisdom through experiences, understanding that facing challenges is essential for personal growth.
That the only way up is down.
Reiterating the idea that overcoming challenges and facing difficulties is crucial for personal advancement.
