Earth Theory - The Lonely Circus Clown Lyrics

[Verse]
Under the tent I paint my smile
Every shadow hides my trials
Bright red nose can't mask my frown
The broken heart of a circus clown

[Verse 2]
Trapeze high but I'm so low
Tossed around by every show
Laughter loud but I'm alone
Spotlight on but love's unknown

[Chorus]
Cotton candy nights and wasted days
Juggling dreams that fade away
Balloons burst as I look down
On the lonely travelling circus clown

[Verse 3]
Crowds they cheer and then they go
Pack my life to chase the show
Tears fall silent hit the ground
Riding rails to the next....

[Chorus]
Cotton candy nights and wasted days
Juggling dreams that fade away
Balloons burst as I look down
On the lonely travelling circus clown

[Bridge]
Tightrope walks a shaky line
Heartache spreads like cheap red wine
Underneath this painted grin
Wishing for a friend again

[Chorus]
Cotton candy nights and wasted days
Juggling dreams that fade away
Balloons burst as I look down
On the lonely travelling circus clown

[Chorus]
Cotton candy nights and wasted days
Juggling dreams that fade away
Balloons burst as I look down
On the lonely travelling circus clown
