I feel like a clown
Dancing in the circus
With a bright, cheery song
And my big shoes on
It's all for the joy
Of those little kids
But it used to be
All for me
Theres too much makeup
With big silly costumes
And too many lights,
It gives me stage fright
When I take off the facade
To see the underneath
My heart begins to pound
And with it theres a warning sound
For what I see
Under the surface
Is painful and hideous
Even more than the circus
When I look at myself
And the mask that I know
The red, shiny nose
That is all for the show
To make others laugh,
Put a smile on their faces,
I'll force myself down
And resurface as that clown
