Lyrics
Step right up, let's paint a smile
Inviting to put on a facade of happiness
On a clown so it's upside down
Describing a clown with a downturned smile, symbolizing hidden sadness
Sarcastic impression of what we've become
Mocking portrayal of our current state
Playing the part that's been cast by some
Acting out a role assigned by external forces
Lying in wait, trying to figure it out
Being patient, attempting to understand the situation
Needing to make ends meet
Struggling to meet basic needs
Elephant's in the room tonight
Unspoken issues affecting the atmosphere
Around and round we go, where we stop no one will know
Uncertainty and unpredictability in life
Everything seems to be falling apart
Observing a state of disintegration
Happens complacence can feed the spark
Complacency fueling problems
End over end, side by side
Continuous struggles, side by side
Lonesome while counting down clock's been tight
Feeling alone while time is passing quickly
Praying for help we'll be alright
Seeking assistance, hoping for things to improve
Nothing can save us until we've been left behind
No salvation until reaching a point of abandonment
One more time
Repeating a cycle, emphasizing the difficulty
View from below looking up's where we start to climb
Starting the journey from a difficult perspective
One last time
Last attempt, acknowledging the severity
It's not as bad as we knew it could be
Comparing the situation to expectations, finding it not as bad
Sometimes kind, never proud
Occasionally kind, but not consistently proud
Escort me into the light
Asking for guidance towards positivity
Let's fake a smile, step right up
Suggesting putting on a fake smile again
