I peek into the hole, I struggle for control
|
The children love the show, but they fail to see the anguish in my eyes
|
Fail to see the anguish in my eyes
|
I scratch around the brim, I let my mind give in
|
The crowd begins to grin, but they seem to scream when darkness fills my eyes
|
Seem to scream when darkness fills my eyes, it's no surprise
|
Fail to see the tragic, turn it into magic
|
My big top tricks will always make you happy, but we all know the hat is wearing me
|
My bag is in the hat, it's filled with this and that
|
My vision's getting fat, the rabbit's just a monkey in disguise
|
Stars and pills and needles dance before our eyes
|
They will bite the hand if it is slower than the quickness of their scrutinizing eyes
|
Fail to see the tragic, turn it into magic
|
My big top tricks will always make you happy, but we all know the hat is wearing me
|
Chicanery will always make you happy, but we all know the hat is wearing me
