Welcome to the circus
And enter my mind
Be baffled and amazed
At the performance of my thoughts
See the trapeze artists toy with my mood
See how high they swing
And
Watch them fall
See how they walk preciously across the thin wire
Always trying to maintain their balance
Hoping not to slip and get hurt
See how they juggle
One thought, two, three, four all in quick succession
Until they all coming crashing down to the ground
See the faces drawn on my thoughts
Painted white faces
With their wide fake smiles
Yet lurking behind the scenes
Waiting for their moment in the spot light
There are the thoughts that
Can lift the weight of a car in each of their hands
And those that can tame the wildest beast known to man
Welcome to the circus
And enter my mind
