Gone Again
Carnival of Reflections: Unveiling the Depths of Innocence Lost
Lyrics
Amusement parks are caked with sounds
Amusement parks are filled with various noises and sounds.
A solid hunk of meat
There is a substantial and tangible presence, possibly referring to a person or an attraction.
A barker's sweat flings from his tongue
A carnival worker enthusiastically promotes attractions, with visible physical effort.
His tattoo shines with heat
The worker's tattoo reflects the intensity of his promotion, perhaps symbolizing dedication or passion.
A wary stranger stands and sways
A cautious observer stands and sways, captivated by the worker's performance.
Enraptured by his stance
The observer is deeply absorbed in the worker's charismatic pose.
Two-headed goats come stumbling by
Unusual attractions, like two-headed goats, pass by, attracting attention.
And give a troubled glance
The two-headed goats appear troubled, adding a mysterious or unsettling element to the scene.
The barker looks into the eyes
The worker locks eyes with the observer, establishing a connection.
The stranger tries to bend
The observer attempts to resist the influence or persuasion exerted by the worker.
The barker swears to more delights
The worker promises more exciting experiences for those who explore further.
For all who seek within
The promise is extended to all who seek novelty or adventure.
The stranger enters canvas doors
The observer enters the tent-like structure, experiencing a change in environment.
And smells the fresh cut hay
The smell of fresh cut hay suggests a rural or farm-like setting inside the tent.
The barker points to Siamese twins
The worker points out Siamese twins as an attraction, but the observer looks away, perhaps uncomfortable.
The stranger looks away
The observer avoids or rejects the spectacle of Siamese twins.
The eyes of horse faced women
Horse-faced women observe the few who navigate through the attractions.
Watch the few who wander through
The horse-faced women are aware of the tension in the air, adding a sense of foreboding.
They sense the tension in the air
There is a palpable tension, and a forbidden or taboo element is perceptible in the atmosphere.
And smell the sweet taboo
The tension is sensed by the horse-faced women, who also smell the forbidden nature of the attractions.
A heart beats fast against a chest
A heartbeat quickens, suggesting heightened emotions or anxiety in the observer.
The stranger leaves the tent
The observer decides to leave the tent, possibly overwhelmed or disturbed by the experience.
The waves of people drown the sounds
The noise of the crowd drowns out any lingering sounds of innocence lost.
Of loss of innocence
The innocence of the observer is lost amidst the overwhelming crowd and experiences.
