Life in the circus ain't easy. But the folks on the outside don't know. The tent goes up and the tent comes down. And all that they see is the show. And the laides on the horses look so pretty.
she was cuffed to the truth like the truth was a chair. bright interrogation light in her eyes. her conscience lit a cigarette and just stood there. waiting for her to crack.
I am wading through the waters wanting you.. I don't dare look cause I'll see right through.. I tried to warm myself to sleep, but now I'm wading way too deep..
I opened the fire door. To four lips. None of which were mine. Kissing. Tightened my belt around my hips. Where your hands were missing. And stepped out into the cold.
She's looking in the mirror. She's fixing her hair. And I touch my head to feel. What isn't there. She's humming a melody. We learned in grade school.
you wander into the forest. following that shiny red ball. and by the time you looked up. you were lost, that's not all. . instead of being the hero boy.
Life in the circus ain't easy. But the folks on the outside don't know. The tent goes up and the tent comes down. And all that they see is the show. And the ladies on the horses look so pretty.
They were digging a new foundation in Manhattan. And they discovered a slave cemetery there. May their souls rest easy now that lynching is frowned upon.
Hey you rotting in an alcoholic empty shell. Banging on the walls of your intoxicated mind. Do you ever wonder why you were left alone. As your heart grew colder and finally tourned to stone.
Countless times I trusted you. I let you back in. Knowing, yearning you know. I should have run but I stayed. . Maybe I always knew. My fragile dreams would be broken for you.
One common, subterranean destination. One life, another day. A vestal child unveiled by temptation. Innocence slips away. . Far away. . Been down so long.
I've feeling I may not be coming down from this,. I was searching through the heavens and somehow I slipped,. . I feel, I'm seeing so clear. . Trying to forget tomorrow and all that's happened,.
Started a search to no avail. A light that shines behind the veil trying to find it. And all around us everywhere is all that we could ever share. If only we could see it.
You got a fast car. I want a ticket to anywhere. Maybe we can make a deal. Maybe together we can get somewhere. Any place is better. Starting from zero got nothing to lose.
Sailing ships go through my mind. Past wreckage on the way. Glory seekers fall in line. Getting closer. Summer laugh, some will cry. What will summer bring!.
Remember when we were young. Just two kids on the run. With our fists full of dreams. . Took it awhile, playin' it cool. Stayed up late cuttin' school.
As I stare into the fire. All my thoughts go up in flames. Here I stare into the fire. I'll be waiting on the rain. . The box I keep myself in, closes out my air.
As I stare into the fire. All my thoughts go up in flames. Here I stare into the fire. I'll be waiting on the rain. . The box I keep myself in, closes out my air.
How can I see tomorrow if you keep me in the dark?. When will I see forever if you damn me from the start?. There must be a way to get through to your blackened heart.
