rialto – three ring circus lyrics
the lights go out without a sound
you can feel the mounting tension
on the bed of nails where we’ve laid down
far too many times to mention
i was on the high wire looking down
for my safety net
when i swear i saw you with that clown
how can i forget?
you can learn to swallow swords
but it hurts so much more
swallowing my pride
on a three-ring circus ride
they watch us from the ringside seats
as the knife throwing commences
and though it all looks very cheap
i still can’t bring you to your senses
i was on the high wire looking down
for my safety net
when i swear i saw you with that clown
how can i forget?
you can learn to swallow swords
but it hurts so much more
swallowing your pride
on a three-ring circus ride
some people ride the wall of death
and it’s so dangerously thrilling
some people fall and break their necks
with just the sky above still spinning
juggling a precious thing
pretty soon it will be broken
if you think i’ll jump through hoops with him
i think you must be joking
i was on the high wire looking down
for my safety net
when i swear i saw you with that clown
how can i forget?
you know that trick they do with swords
well it hurts so much more
swallowing my pride
on a three-ring circus ride
