Circus Freak

When I was young I was with my friends
They said "I had a dream
And you were in it"
We were all princesses
And you were the clown
We were all so pretty
You were dancing around
Your face painted
Your shoes too big
I swear to God it didn't mean a thing
Met with a sinister grin

That's the day I learned

They call me a circus freak
Behind my back
Apparently
I'm quite the act
Being different is now a crime
Scaring people with a
Unique mind
They call me a circus freak

They all know my name
But not the inside
For shame
All the whispers through the halls
Stares like eyes that follow ya
Like a picture on a wall
Freaky
Interacting with me like a mirror
Some with a mask
To pretend like we were
All apart of the same cast
Except they forgot all their lines
Amateur's

That's the day I learned

They call me a circus freak
Behind my back
Apparently
I'm quite the act
Being different is now a crime
Scaring people with a
Unique mind
They call me a circus freak

While I'm on the trapeze
Making money
You'll be making hollow friends
When the red curtain closes
At least I will know
Who I am

So go ahead and
Call me a circus freak
Behind my back
You think I don't know that
I put on quite an act
Being different is was never a crime
Standing out with a unique mind
I'm proud to be
A circus freak
