The Circus Lyrics

I ran away to join the circus
I ran away to join the crowds
Of people with a purpose and join with them to shout it loud

I don't wanna see that look on your face
And I don't wanna know that who I am and who I was are one and the same
I don't wanna live with past regrets
We never have a choice seems hindsight's what we're best at

I ran away to join the circus
I ran away to join the crowds
Of people with a purpose and join with them to shout it loud

Could I have the chance to retake my stand
And choose a side to fight this time
I will stand up proud, tall amongst the crowd
And never fall like that again

Cause I know what you thought of me back then
And don't wanna have a single person think those thoughts again
It shows you've grown to see you failed
Sweet irony's sting in the tail

I ran away to join the circus
I ran away to join the crowds
Of people with a purpose and join with them to shout it loud
