It's getting harder and harder to bear
You got me acting like a clown in a collar
You got me spending all the time I can spare
You got me wasting every dime every dollar
When I stumble and fall
Does it hurt you at all?
Will it twist like a knife
For the rest of your life?
You think that love's a joke
But there ain't too much to laugh at
And it's all for show
Should I keep my ticket after
Or should I just go
When you're begging for attention
Once the crowd goes home
And there's no one left to listen
Tah Dah!
You got me jumping through a circle of fire
You got me juggling everything that I care for
In your world is like a cage with a tiger
It's what all the cuts and the bruises are there for
When I stumble and fall
Does it hurt you at all?
Will it twist like a knife
For the rest of your life?
You think that love's a joke
But there ain't too much to laugh at
And it's all for show
Should I keep my ticket after
Or should I just go?
When you're begging for attention
Once the crowd goes home
And there's no one left to listen
I got the freedom to love
I got the freedom to leave
Well now enough is enough
I'm not a trick up your sleeve
I'm not a part of your show
Can't make me popup and go
One day your curtain will close
I've got to let you know
You think that love's a joke
But there ain't to much to laugh at
And it's all for show
Should I keep my ticket after
Or should I just go
When you're begging for attention
Once the crowd goes home
And there's no one left to listen
Tah Dah!!!
