The song "Circles" by JubyPhonic explores themes of longing, love, and the struggle to find meaning in a never-ending cycle. The lyrics depict a person who is reminiscing about their past self, describing how they used to sleep peacefully until they fell into a deep and continuous tragedy. The person is haunted by someone in their dreams, but they desire to continue seeing them because they have become the oxygen that they need to survive, even though they feel suffocated by the relationship. The individual feels trapped in a never-ending circle, constantly searching for something that cannot be found. They are unable to express themselves or be heard due to the fear that surrounds them. The person questions what is happening to them and wonders about the meaning of it all. They feel distant from reality and find solace in the idea that their current situation is a lovely place to be. They question whether the words they have been given by their loved one are genuine or not, as they are unsure of their authenticity. The individual acknowledges that nothing matters, but they still hope to see their loved one again in a dream that feels far away. Throughout the song, the person yearns for a reason, love, and a sense of truth but finds themselves trapped in a cycle of repeating emotions. They long for someone to take their hand and show them what love truly feels like, and they express a desire to stop hiding their true emotions. However, they also recognize that they are a fool for holding onto these feelings. Overall, "Circles" portrays the struggle of being trapped in a cyclical relationship, the longing for love, and the internal conflict between wanting to break free and holding onto familiar patterns.
