Standing on my stage
Spinning round and round
They can't feel my rage
Or hear my heart pound
Locked inside a cage
Crying without sound
Watch the show begin
I am alone
Performing again
Following this tone
As I let it in
And so out I zone
Welcome to the show
That will never end
There's nowhere to go
So watch as we bend
Never breaking no
Standing in the wind
Don't forget your dress
Don't forget your fear
Make sure to impress
Keep your safety near
Don't let in the stress
Watch the shadows leer
Welcome to the play
Please enjoy the act
Please don't go away
Just make this one pact
Promise you will stay
When the crowd is packed
Or oh so empty
Just stay and observe
Keep your eyes on me
Don't let your thoughts swerve
I know you will see
We won't lose our nerve
Just a magic trick
Trust me it's not real
It will end real quick
If we say we feel
We're not very slick
Show's losing appeal
Watch the curtain fall
Know it can still rise
Don't give up at all
Don't believe the lies
Don't obey the call
Or give into sighs
This show will go on
Even through the pain
We will see the dawn
After all the rain
Don't worry lost fawn
I will keep you sane.
