Circus from Sweet Talk by Wes Watkins

There's an old man sitting here beside me
He says he's lived the life that I am living now
Though now I'm blind, he says, my hindsight's 20/20
And never once in life I've broken a vow
No never once in life I've broken a vow

Now While you hear my tale, he says, give me no pity
Cause even I one time was foolish as you
I took my pride and pain and moved out to the city
I left my folks and fam to go and find my fame
I left em all behind ain't that a crying shame

Nothing becomes of it, no, nothing but change
And not all for nothing cause I saw a change

I became a soldier want to see it all
But what I saw was dark it's the evil who stand tall
It's the ones who sit and stare at others tries
And laugh upon the disappointment in their eyes

Nothing becomes of it, no, nothing but change
And not all for nothing cause I saw a change

I've seen it all, I've seen it end then start again
I've been alive when suddenly I found me dead
I try to warn many but no one heeds my tale
If you don't learn yourself my friends we'll surely fail
Heed it or not, I figured that I'd probably share

Nothing becomes of it, no, nothing but change
And not all for nothing cause I saw a change
Nothing becomes of it, no, nothing but change
And not all for nothing cause I saw a change
