Circus Life
You find the strength
You lose your voice
You find some peace
You miss the noise
You find your chance
You crash your car
You lose your way
And find your heart
You reach your goal
And it's your end
You lose your life
Where life begins
You make it back
But you're not home
Where is that peace you'd known?
Day and night
In the circus life
Loose or tight
In this circus life
You finally stand up on your feet
But earthquakes shake you in your sleep
Savor a moment, you're not broke
The streets go up in fire and smoke
You try to shake your misery
The cure is worse than the disease
You book your flight, you cancel twice
You long for beans and rice!
Day and night
In the circus life
Wrong or right
In this circus life
Am I boring you again?
If you're not interested, pretend!
Don't make me beg you for a smile
I feel like I'm in Kafka's Trial
Is there something you can't say?
You can't always get your way
You're like the poet on his box
Am I your protégé?
Day and night
In the circus life
Fight or flight
In this circus life
You lose your voice
You find some peace
You miss the noise
You find your chance
You crash your car
You lose your way
And find your heart
You reach your goal
And it's your end
You lose your life
Where life begins
You make it back
But you're not home
Where is that peace you'd known?
Day and night
In the circus life
Loose or tight
In this circus life
You finally stand up on your feet
But earthquakes shake you in your sleep
Savor a moment, you're not broke
The streets go up in fire and smoke
You try to shake your misery
The cure is worse than the disease
You book your flight, you cancel twice
You long for beans and rice!
Day and night
In the circus life
Wrong or right
In this circus life
Am I boring you again?
If you're not interested, pretend!
Don't make me beg you for a smile
I feel like I'm in Kafka's Trial
Is there something you can't say?
You can't always get your way
You're like the poet on his box
Am I your protégé?
Day and night
In the circus life
Fight or flight
In this circus life
