Electric Circus

(album: Apocalypse Whenever - 2022)

Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, riding a tidal wave
Of lies and blame

Dream electric dreams
Perfect on the surface
Life is a but a stream
Where everybody's shirtless
Tell me what you mean
To be heard is to hurt less
Nothing's what it seems
At this electric circus

Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, crushed by a tidal wave
Of lies and blame

Trash my self-esteem
When you're feeling worthless
Hunched over a screen
To feel some sense of purpose
I'm trying so hard to make it look easy
Falling apart with a smile on my face
Everyone loves everybody until they need some thing
Then I pretend like I didn't hear my cell phone ring

Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, riding a tidal wave
Of lies and blame
Ah, crushed by a tidal wave
Of lies and blame

There's no one beneath me
It's so easy to leave me
I loved you completely
So deeply, so briefly

Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, crushed by a tidal wave
Of lies and blame

(Nothing's what it seems)
(At this electric circus)
