Circus

When the world outside
Keeps burning like hell
close your curtains
and enjoy the show

You have something now
that you’d lost before
now make a promise
that you’ll never let it go

Life is a grand circus
the biggest of it’s kind
the one’s trying to convince you otherwise
must surely be dead blind
Here, in the circus you see
freaks of all kind
doing their juggling tricks
but who’s there to remind
that it’s just a show, in the end
even the most grand carnivals must end
No there isn’t much a difference
between a gymnast, or a clown
or a juggler, lions and hounds
even the ringmaster is now a timid soul
for they forgot the only single fact that
it’s just a joke after all
