Clown

Place I’ve been to before betrayed me
Things that I believed in unsaved me
What I have to do after all I didn’t say
You want to revenge all my jokes and play
Time has cursed me reason was my daring smile
But it didn’t look at another side of it where I cried
Make-up was my friend who has kept my soul
But it took away my face and my role
I’m a clown
I’m a funny clown
I’m a violin without the bow
I’m a clown
I’m a lonely clown
I’m a thing that lives apart from love
Words that I said so loudly seemed so mindless
It’s because of tears from my eyes
Flowers that I gave withered with my faith
But instead of that I wanna back that place
Place where I used to smile with the men I saw
And I wanna back loving place I’ve been to before
Make-up used to cover all my dreary sights
And my soul made its highest flights
I’m a clown
I’m a funny clown
I’m a violin without the bow
I’m a clown
I’m a lonely clown
I’m a thing that lives apart from love
