lyrics

circus
(linja meller)

i’m turning
i’m burning

i’m a girl with this face
got no beauty and no grace
people think i am mad
but i know i’m just sad

hold me man, take my hand
come into my circus baby

a dead man band is playing all the time
black shadows follow you and they are mine
the lions are sleeping but at midnight they are free
the artists are falling down and so are we

there are old women standing between birch trees and evil clowns behind them
burning rings of fire everywhere
my tiger is following me while i’m straying around getting crazy over the fact that time is passing by and can’t be stopped, not over here, not over there

i’m not good, i’m not fine
but i’m me, i am mine
i once thought it’s unfair
that i’m alone, but i don’t care

hold me man, take my hand
come into my circus baby

a dead man band is playing all the time
black shadows follow you and they are mine
the lions are sleeping but at midnight they are free
the artists are falling down and so are we

people think i’m insane
but i know all is vain
people think i’m insane
but i know all is vain

hold me man, take my hand
come into my circus baby

a dead man band is playing all the time
black shadows follow you and they are mine
the lions are sleeping but at midnight they are free
the artists are falling down and so are we
