Circumstances (feat. Trevor Hall) - Daphne Willis, Trevor Hall

Circumstances changed the game again*

We don’t want it to depend on something that is out of our hands

So we search for something we can blame again

Even if we have to frame again

The easy way out is in high demand

Screw trying to understand

Put it in your pocket, lock it, close it up for keeps

Sweep it under the rug, turn your head, close your eyes, shrug, sigh

Lie it on the floor and walk by

C’mon man what’s buggin' you?

All you gotta do is…

I feel we’ve been past all these things before

Declared them all worth fighting for

Or maybe I was just sick that day

Civil rights do not exist

1929 was just an itch

And the earth is made of plastic

You could throw it all way

And it’ll magically decay today

Put it in your pocket, lock it, close it up for keeps

Sweep it under the rug, turn your head, close your eyes, shrug, sigh

Lie it on the floor and walk by

C’mon man what’s buggin' you?

It’s enough to make me cry

Circumstances change the game again now

Let’s not let it all depend on something that is out of our hands

Put it in your pocket, lock it, close it up for keeps

Sweep it under the rug, turn your head, close your eyes, shrug, sigh

Lie it on the floor and walk by

C’mon man what’s buggin' you?

It’s enough to make me cry
