You only see the clown,
Not the girl inside.
You only see the clown,
Just the painted smile.
You only see the clown,
Not the pain or fears.
You only see the clown,
The heartache and the tears.
You only see the clown,
An actor, just a sham.
You only see the clown,
Not who I really am.
You only see the clown,
That's all you'll ever see.
You only see the clown,
But that's just an act you see.
You never see the hidden face,
The mask is all you see.
You only see the clown,
But that's not really me.
