I'm an acrobat
Swinging around life to and fro,
Gripping by the handle and won't let go

Perhaps
If you were there, you'd see
The mask that hides pain on the front of me

An acrobat
Entertainment, a show
The pressure of life won't let me go

The lights
They cover these skies
I've stared at them long and they've blinded my eyes

So watch
Our act, watch, laugh, and cheer
Watch as I fly, grin ear to ear

But understand
For if I fall,
There's no one to catch me, nobody at all.
