So Long To The Circus

Sometimes I miss the circus, I know why I ran away
I stepped right out of that song while it played
I lit it like a stage and I gave it like a gift
What I got out of it is this

Be suspicious but friendly to your elders
Be friendly but suspicious to other circuses
You trust your friends, if you can't trust your friends
You've already agreed to travel with them

So long to the circus, so long to it all
I've always had a good sense when it's time to get, time to get gone
(When the police are about to arrive, when security steps in)
Wave goodbye to the circus

Sometimes I miss the circus and the friends I have made
Never would have left, had you stayed
You left us like a stage that you'd outgrown
Leaving me stunned and all alone

So long to the circus, so long to it all
I've always had a good sense when it's time to get, time to get gone
(When the police are about to arrive, when security steps in)
Wave goodbye to the circus

You waved goodbye to the circus then don't cry
It was just another circus, it was just your first time
You know what you were doing, couldn't know what you missed
What did you get out of this?

That love is real, unstoppable
Actually a wild animal
Self-interested, immoral and cruel
And you got between it and food

So long to the circus, so long to it all
I've a good sense of when it's time to get, time to get gone
(When the police are about to arrive, when security steps in)
And wave goodbye to the circus

It's time to get gone
