    Lyrics:
    It's a comical yet devastating universe
    But it's still the kind of universe that I deserve
    The lipstick on my face has bled into my skin
    It should show a grin
    Up from the sky, I won't want you to cry
    So here's an act for everyone to sneer at
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    The acrobat who's waiting at the top
    Should do a Circus Hop
    (Instrumental)
    I shall now accept the fact that I'm a failure (You're a failure)
    'Cause I'm still afraid the future might be scarier (It is scarier)
    I'll slip while having fun and cut off my own tongue
    They'll think I was dumb
    Up from the sky, I won't want you to cry
    So here's an act for everyone to sneer at
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    The acrobat who's waiting at the top
    Should do a Circus Hop
    (Instrumental)
    I've said goodbye, I don't want you to cry
    So have a laugh with everyone but me.
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    The acrobat who fell down from the top
    They did a little drop :)
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    The acrobat who's waiting at the top
    Should do a circus hop
    (Instrumental)

    The part at 2:25 really started to get me. You’d expect with that pose for them to fall forwards, like an acrobat preparing to do a circus trick, but once they start to fall backwards you realise their truest intentions. You’d expect a net to be there if they fell towards, but that’s clearly not the case. It’s also indicates them not wanting to see the point of death or where to ground is, looking up to the sky and pretending they are falling like in a show, or pretending the net is under them.

    Circus Hop, now with a guide as to what the song might mean:
    // first off, the song title
    // "Circus Hop" can be replaced with "Suicide Drop" for clearer meaning
    It's a comical yet devastating universe
    // pressures of life piling on
    But it's still the kind of universe that I deserve
    // self-depreciation and acceptance
    The lipstick on my face has bled into my skin
    It should show a grin
    // the "should" here signifies the accumulated pain and sadness/depression
    Up from the sky, I won't want you to cry
    // "once I'm gone, please don't feel sad/miss me"
    So here's an act for everyone to sneer at
    // "an act" references the act of suicide
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    // driven to partial insanity
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    // "the cackling carosel" is a metaphor for the world and all its evils; also in reference to how the world keeps on going even if they want it to stop/slow down
    The acrobat who's waiting at the top
    Should do a Circus Hop
    // "the acrobat" is the person that's about to commit suicide
    // "should do a circus hop" reinforcing the idea that suicide is the only option ("circus hop" meaning to jump off and die)
    (Instrumental)
    I shall now accept the fact that I'm a failure (You're a failure)
    // acceptance of self-worthlessness
    'Cause I'm still afraid the future might be scarier (It is scarier)
    // obvious meaning
    I'll slip while having fun and cut off my own tongue
    // again references the act of suicide, could also mean self-harm
    They'll think I was dumb
    // perceiving that no one will care if they die
    // same as before (I won't comment on repeated lines)
    Up from the sky, I won't want you to cry
    So here's an act for everyone to sneer at
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    The acrobat who's waiting at the top
    Should do a Circus Hop
    // the part where the music slows and jon falls sideways may also signify suicide
    (Instrumental)
    // the X marks on the eyes implying death
    I've said goodbye, I don't want you to cry
    // notice how "don't" is used instead of "won't", implying present tense and that this is before suicide
    So have a laugh with everyone but me.
    // again self-depreciation; also about how they won't be around anymore after suicide
    // notice how the key of the song shifts one semitone up, further cementing the insanity of the song (key changes upwards are usually meant to add energy)
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    The acrobat who fell down from the top
    // in past tense, implying that the suicide already happened/it being too late to stop
    They did a little drop :)
    // meaning sure-fire death (the smiley face in the lyrics adds to the suggestion of death)
    So, sing along, it's such a silly song
    The cackling carousel, it spins and never stops
    The acrobat who's waiting at the top
    // notice how in this part, jon is still smiling, yet also crying, implying insanity and acceptance one more
    Should do a circus hop
    // as the last of the lyrics are said, the tempo of the instrumental part gets faster and faster; may be a metaphor for how a person's heart speeds up as they experience free-fall
    (Instrumental)
    // the broken sounding music and jon being positioned upside down at the end implies the suicide already succeeded
    // the evil cackle at the end may mean insanity, but may also be other people seemingly laughing at their demise (self-worthlessness and acceptance again)
    Additional Notes:
    // notice how jon's eyes and face get progressively darker and grimmer as the song progresses; transitioning from normal eyes at first with a "backlight" of insanity; to the same eyes, but with the "sparkly glints" gone; and finally to one where the face has a menacingly dark glare on it, still with the "backlight" of insanity in the eyes
    // the circus theme of the song heavily reinforces the insanity and hopelessness of the predicament of suicide, while acting as a distraction from the underlying morbid lyrics
    Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read all this, and very special thank you to Jon for making such a masterpiece of a song.

    This thing I really admire about this video is the way the depressing and insane part of the video slides in without you notice it. At the "So sing along" part of the song, the shine on the eyes and the blush disappear and the mouth becomes larger, making the video seem more crazed. The video has some black blots at the end. The lyrics slowly start to become more unsettling, but you don't hear it because the song itself is still sounding upbeat and happy. And, compared to the beginning and the end, the lyrics are louder and more insane.
    also i just realized that at the end there is a bit of maniacal laughter

    Here’s my take on the chorus:
    “So sing along it’s such a silly song”
    - In a joking, hurtful way, telling people to “sing along” (go along with the crowd, who’s making fun of this one person).
    “The cackling carousel it spins and never stops”
    - The “cackling carousel” is a crowd of people who constantly target and bully this one person.
    “The acrobat who’s waiting at the top should do a circus hop”
    - The “acrobat” is the person getting bullied and harassed. The “circus hop” is representing suicide (jumping off a building). This shows that the “cackling carousel” of people (bullies) has driven the “acrobat” (victim) to suicide.
    This is just my take on it :)

    This song caught me so off guard. The lyrics just turn dark in a second in the second part. I noticed that the lyrics were always depressing. “The acrobat who’s *waiting* at the top”, he’s thinking before jumping. Wow there’s so much symbolism. This is a sort of a Dajiobanai song, the beat of the song is so catchy and happy but the lyrics are super depressing. Sometimes the beat doesn’t make you notice the lyrics until they get darker. This is now my fav song. Jon you’re doing a fantastic job and giving as such bops! Keep it up!

    I am disturbed yet mildly pleased.
    The meaning of the song only hit me halfway through when the character was visibly and audibly going insane, The bright colors remind me that suicide is often seen as a good thing to those commiting it, and the fact that the character sees this as a circus act is definitely one of the more disturbing factors.
    I will say, this is gloriously composed and animated, and the metaphor is truly well done.

    When I first heard this song, it genuinely pained me because it's so incredibly accurate to what I've experienced for a very large portion of my life leading up to now(I'm better now!). The truth of the song was so cuttingly real to me, and accurate, that I didn't know whether to listen to this song again, or to cast it away, never to be heard again.
    ...As it turns out, I actually got used to the song very quickly, and now instead of feeling hurt by it, I feel heard, and comforted that others have felt the way I have. At first it killed me to listen to, but now I'm dying to hear it again. Or, I guess, you know, living to hear it again. Helped me compile and reconcile some thoughts; weirdly therapeutic.

    Anyone else noticed that after it showed him falling, there's a drawing of a clown fish leaving another younger clown fish?
    After he "died", it shows a fish leaving another fish, I think he represents the fish that's leaving, and the audience is the fish that's being left behind by him.

      Maybe it's the other way around.
      The lyrics show that he is under the impression that nobody would care if he was gone:
      "I won't want you to cry."
      "I'll slip while having fun, and cut off my own tongue. They'll think I was dumb."
      "So have a laugh, with everyone but me."
      Maybe the clown fish leaving represents the audience moving on without him without hesitation.

    ok, so the way I interpret this song is using humour to cope with real pain. When you're suffering a lot of the time you put on an act, hence the circus theme. Sometimes u can express these dark jokes and they have underlying suffering, like a cry for help or attempt to communicate your pain. But it's difficult to talk about these things so it's easier to put on a face. Maybe you become so accustomed to these awful feelings that you don't realize u are spiralling out of control.
    Thats just how this music spoke to me.

    Apparently, as a short summary, this is a song about someone who thinks their life is a joke/ circus for everyone else to laugh at their failure. The acrobat is him at the top of a build, and the Circus Hop is him jumping of the building.
    A bit deeper analysis
    0:44 - 0:50 him trying to fake a smile.
    0:52 - 0:59 him not wanting people to be sad when he dies
    1:11 - 1:15 him saying how people never stop teasing/laughing at him
    Also notice how ever time the chorus comes he gets madder and madder.

It's oddly cheery and absolutely upsetting more than anything, a person spending all of their energy to make their loved ones happy so that way all of their business is finished, to say that they love them, before they're gone.

    So, the song it's like a mixed between suicide and *work* yes like working as a clown in the circus yes. We know that circus is half gone in society, and of course when we go to a circus we already see all clown keeps smiling everytime but, they might still hiding the dark memories inside them. a circus is a work but they practice so hard to make perfect acrobat for people and of course again " so have a laugh to everyone but me.. " It like a work in real life meaning we waste so much time to work for money and because circus is becomes more disappear from the society it hard to make money. And when it say when he fell while having and cut her own tounge meaning that while playing the acrobat he accidentally fall and cut it but because it's a circus "everyone thinks that part of the clumsiness so they ignore it and just laughing at him" But of course not the manager tho, the manager is mad at him because he fall while doing some acrobats. It's like a rl work ok? I'm sorry for the English ok?

    The musical arrangement, the use of dissonance, the slight changes in expression, the textures, the colors, the use of delay and filters, the transitions, that full and present chorus, the sudden stops and wonky/goofy noises, every ounce of love and detail put into this is absolutely stunning. You have perfected the art of drama and subtlety. Bravo. Can't imagine the work that went into this.
    As for interpretation, a lot has already been said that captures a good chunk of it. I think something less spoken of is the metaphor for how people pretend everything is ok, which is basically an embodiment of this video. Not just the person who is struggling, but everybody around them, ignoring the statistics, the suffering, and putting on an ignorant smile. In particular the line "I'll slip while having fun, and cut off my own tongue, they'll think I was dumb" hits me as a metaphor for how, after silencing oneself with the "circus hop" people often look at the "acrobat" as someone who was weak, and made a stupid, illogical decision, rather than as a victim who couldn't keep fighting anymore. Often, victims are looked down upon, and rather than learning from their loss, people erase them and go on with the charade. It's almost like entertainment in that way that suddenly, temporarily, the victim has everybody's attention with this act. It also may just be a metaphor for being yourself and finding joy, only for others to bring you down and ridicule you for doing something that makes you happy. It could also be a way of saying that once they do the hop, everything they were before won't matter. They'll be labeled, and any joy, any part of who they really were will be overshadowed by this final act.

    The little details are what help bring this song together so well. Even if most people don't notice it at first, the at start innocent and happy looking JonKaGor, as time goes on he continues to lose bits and pieces of his sanity, the shine in his eyes seem to get darker, and halfway through the video the shine in the eyes go away, so does the blush, the talking fish (That I am pretty sure represents voices in your head that never shut up). Not to mention, the fact that as the video goes on as well you can see the increasing madness in his eyes, the way he poses himself, and in the small little "Flashback Film" ( 2:54 ) section of the video, its basically telling you that despite everything, remember all those good times you had with Jon. Whether it was as his friend, or as a viewer.

    @toasty7854 4 роки тому +376

    Ok, we all know that this song clearly refers itself to suicide and depression, but, still, I will analyze some facts and parts of the song:
    SUMMARY:
    The song, as it shows itself, represents a circus, but, taking it into metaphoric facts, it could represent the OP's point of view of their own life. They see themselves as a joke to be laughed at, and their entire life it's just a circus that brings joy, laughs and happiness to other people, they are their own clown and puppet, using their pain as the focus of their jokes.
    "Circus Hop" would be refering to the exact moment of their suicide, and I will explain why later into this comment. Now, it's moment to take some meanings out of the lyrics.
    MEANING OF THE LYRICS:
    "It's a comical yet devastating universe [...]" - in this part, as it is obvious, OP's saying how the universe we live it's so devastating, filled with pain & fear to the point it's actually hilarious, a reference to dark humor itself, wich people normally do to bring a little laugh at certain things that happen in our world that actually are, kinda depressing. The classic "laugh to not cry".
    "But still the kinda universe that I deserve [...]" - this part, OP basically says that they are so miserable that they deserve the pain and suffering they are feeling. They feel so horrible about themselves that thinks this is all happening because they deserve for something they done wrong, even if they can't really tell what they did or why is it wrong.
    "The lipstick in my face, was bled into my skin [...] It should show a grin [...]" - Here, OP's explaining that they've hide their pain with a fake smile and a simulation of "them", when in fact, it was all a lie. They faked it for so much time that, now, they can't really tell who they actually are or if their "fake me" is their actual self, wich explains why their "lipstick" bled. Their mask had become their identity making them forgot who they were.
    "Up from the sky, I won't want you to cry [...]" - OP starts to think about the people they know, and starts to feel even more bad about themselves because they know their suicide will make their loved ones cry.
    "So here's an act, for everyone to sneer at [...]" - The "act" is nothing more than their suicide. They are saying that their suicide will be something funny to be turned into a joke.
    "So sing along, it's such a silly song [...]" - The "silly song" it's, once again, OP's point of view of their own life, seeing it as a silly thing to be joked around. They are basically saying "hey, no need to feel bad about me, just take it easy and let's joke around!", so nobody have to feel pity of them or try to help.
    "The clacking carousel, it spins and never stops [...]" - that part was pretty hard for me, but, after some thinking, I believe the "carousel" it's a metaphor for the depression they suffer. The reason for this it's because when OP says "it spins and never stops", was a way of saying that, no matter how they try or how much time passes, they never stop feeling the endless pain or sadness they always felt, as if they're walking in circles forever and ever...See? A carousel of pain and sadness that won't stop spinning around, no matter how you try to turn it off.
    "The acrobat who's waiting at the top [...]" - The acrobat, my folks, it's no one else more than OP, waiting at a top of a building for their act (suicide).
    "Should do a circus hop [...]" - As I said before, the entire thing of "circus hop" it's related entirely to OP's suicide. Why? As I said before, the acrobat it's actually OP at a top of a building. So, if the acrobat it's supposed to do a hop, what would the hop mean? Of course, OP jumping off the building.
    "I shall now accept the fact that I'm a failure [...]" - This, at it reveals itself, it's OP saying how they feel so uneasy and horrible about themselves, feeling like they are a failure or something that shouldn't exist. And the deep voices saying "you're a failure" are the voices of their head, assuring and remembering them of these thoughts.
    "Cause I'm afraid that the future might be scarier [...]" - In here, OP's saying that they're afraid that in the future things might get worse for them, more things will happen to hurt their heart or even, they could never cure themselves of the depression or feel happy again. The deep voices saying "it is scarier" are, once again, the voices of their head, making them believe that every nightmare will become real.
    "I'll slip while having fun, and cut off my own tongue [...] They'll think I was dumb [...]" - In here, as the same case of the "carousel" thing, could be a metaphor, but this time, about bullying (or at least, I believe). It could be that OP was referring that, when they were a happy and enthusiastic person, their happiness were destroyed by some accidents he made (the slipping part), and then, people started to laugh at their face, making them be seen as a "dumb" or "stupid" kid. The whole "cut off my own tongue" part could be their way of saying that, after these accidents and the bullying they've suffered, it felt like they lost a part of their own self, as if it was taken from their body.
    "I've said goodbye, I don't want you to cry [...]" - Later in the song, this part happens between (or after) OP's suicide, probably when their suicide letter was found, were they say goodbye and ask their loved ones to not cry over their death.
    "So have a laugh with everyone but me [...]" - In the suicide letter, OP also asks to their loved ones to live a happy life, a life that he couldn't live. To go further than them, and be happy with someone else, something that he wasn't able to do thanks to their depression.
    "The acrobat who fell down from the top [...]" - Here the lyrics change drastically, changing also it's meaning. While in the beginning of the song, it meant moments before OP jump, in here, the end, means when they finally jumped of the roof.
    "They did a little drop [...]" - The drop is a reference to OP's body impact on the ground after jumping, killing them instantly.
    BONUS:
    "Faces"
    If you watch the video, you can definitely notice that, in the chorus, the faces change by the end of the song. They become more panicked and insane.
    This would represent OP's expressions while they jumped of the roof and were falling to the ground. These would be the very first moments were OP felt alive, and, the chance of two thoughts.
    1°: OP starts to notice that they didn't actually wanted to die, and the insane and panicked expressions would represent the fact that they were starting to rethink about the suicide plan, and wanted to revert the situation before they hit the ground and die. The tears in the eyes of the acrobat would be tears of fear, and the insane smile would be caused because they knew that there was no way of coming back, and they had to accept the cold and hard death that was coming for them.
    2°: OP's finally feeling alive for the first time of their life (even if for brief moments) thanks to the adrenaline, and, it's relieved that they might reach peace and happiness once hit the ground. They are overwhelmed that, after so much time, they'll finally be able to smile and reach peace. The tears in the eyes of the acrobat are tears of joy, and the insane smile would be caused due to the adrenaline and the overwhelming feeling of hope for the final peace.
    ENDING:
    P.S: I know everyone knows this, but, just in case; these are NOT the actual meanings of the song! It's just what I believe it means by analyzing the lyrics and videclip, but Jon could have intended to express another thoughts and meanings into the lyrics and I ended up not understanding. Still, it was pretty fun and I liked a lot doing this.
    P.S²: If there is any grammatical errors or so, please keep in mind that english is not my main language. I'm actually a 15 y/o brazilian who's still learning the foreign language that is english and, to be honest, I am (still) not very good at it...So, if there is any mistake, please warn me so I can fix it and maybe even learn something new!
    P.S³: Nice song btw :)

      There were a few typos that I noticed, "They'll thing I was dumb" the thing is supposed to be think, but I was still able to understand the analysis that you did.
      I also wanted to mention the fish used in the visuals. The main two I saw in the song were Clown fish and Unicorn fish. (There are Sea horses in the carousel part as well.) The Clown fish are probably there because it's a circus theme, but I've been thinking about the Unicorn fish. Whenever I see it in the video, it makes me think of someone pointing and laughing at OP, like they're there to emphasize OP's desire for their death to be seen as a joke.

    Jon, I think you are trying to make a secret story out of your songs. This includes Artificial Abandonment, Bitter and Blunt, Circus Hop and Another Misake. It starts in Artificial Abandonment. Jon and Mello has a breakup with each other as he can’t be trusted as the song says “I’ll be removed and you will be gone”. His life became a mess and that what happens in Another Mistake. As the songs says “Why do I keep on trying, I’ll just end up lying!”, it suggests that no matter what he do, he will always mess things up. His life is a lie. Then they’re are two endings, one is Bitter and Blunt the good ending and the other is the bad ending in Circus Hop.
    In Bitter and Blunt, he never gives up and try to fix his mistakes. Then he became successful and reunited with Mello and his friends. The bad ending is in Circus Hop. He got employed by some people to be a clown at their circus. He took this opportunity so that he could see Mello again in the circus. But after a while, she doesn’t come to the circus. He feels abandoned and uncared by Mello just like how he is very untrustworthy to Mello. In a performance, he singed the circus hop song in a performance and killed himself by falling off the rope.
    But hey that’s just a theory, a music theory!!!

    SO I just realised the meaning/symbolism of the fish. I'll copy paste the meanings here.
    Clown fish (Or the Nemo fish, the orange one with white and black stripes)
    "Clown fish or Anemone fish are important spirit guides because their spiritual guidance is to build, wisdom, knowledge and teachings that can be helpful in overcoming challenges in the world. ... Those who have clown fish or anemone fish as their totem animal also tend to hide within dangerous situations."
    I also find it fun that a CLOWN fish is in the circus, I don't know if that was the intent or not.
    Unicorn fish (the fish with the nose)
    "The Unicorn fish is symbolic that you are to acknowledge your gifts, beliefs + honor your true worth or self. Until you can truly face yourself in the mirror and accept your own thoughts, will you be able to truly express them without restraint to another or others."
    I just found this interesting, but these are just speculations.

      This is gonna be kinda off topic but this comment reminds me of a performance at a Cirque De Soleil (I'm pretty sure that's what it's called) show I saw where a woman was essentially dancing in the air by using a 50 ft tall red sheet to stay in the air, tangling herself in the fabric for leverage in her elaborate dance.
      The final part of this act has her role up the sheet, wrapping it around her, until she's almost at the top. Then, she begins to unravel, causing her to descend rapidly. It looks like she's falling, but before she can hit the ground, she catches herself on the sheet again. She's upside down now, her face less than a foot away from the ground, and the stage goes dark.
