lyrics

Should I hold my tongue?
Should I keep you guessing?
Cause after all it’s done
I have learnt my lesson

But there’s something different about this time
Something clearer about my mind
And now I’m leaning towards your dreaming
As all my dreaming runs wild, circus child

It’s been a long, long time
Since I left my window
But what was there to find
But stacks of broken arrows?

Now I’m burning the clothes I wore
Now I’m shedding the sights I saw
And I hope no spaces can hide your aces
Cause all my aces are played, circus babe

And so I say to you:
Let’s not force a meaning
Forget the lines we drew
Forget your teenage demons

We have nothing to state or prove
We have nothing to fear or lose
And I’ll be trying to catch you hiding
Now all my hiding is seen, circus queen
