Surrounded by these tow'ring walls
The Master of the Circus calls
And beckons me to put on a show
Of emotions that I'll never know
Laughing colors, glittering lights
Combine and align to form stage fright
Take the high dive towards the ground
Grab the trapeze and don't look down
I sprinted 'cross the tightest rope
And came close to losing all my hope
But somewhere in the midst of it all
I stumbled and you caught my fall
Sad eyes hide behind painted oppression
An exaggeration of a forgotten expression
But perfection lives beneath this masquerade
A paragon that has been beat and betrayed
Lead me through this labyrinth of doors
Memorable passages, yet unexplored
You wanted fun, and I a friend
To break through the trap and find an end
Dancing carelessly through the halls
Knock on doors and 'gainst the walls
Lead me everywhere throughout this maze
A single solution, but so many ways
There we go, I fell again
This time I need more than a friend
Shut the doors then lock them tight
Perhaps we can rest here tonight
We've tangled ourselves into a nice little knot
But if we quiet down, then we shouldn't get caught
Lost in the darkness, our fingers entwined
The hope in those eyes lights up my mind
There's just one thing that I must ask
Take it off, take off your mask
