I stayed here all alone As time was passing on A simple, little date And that is what I'll say we're on
The people close to town The gentle, floating clouds They share a laugh as I sit Waiting all day long
A really simple formula That I don't understand at all The ticking of the clock is rushing like my heart is going to stop To really, truly comprehend I have attempted, but I can't To think that in your eyes You really see me as A clown to just be made fun of
Ah, as I spin As I spin As I spin Until I just Ah, can't breathe in Can't breathe in This is the end Guess this is it Sorry fate has got me hit And now I can't go on going Knowing you'll never see this
The Earth goes on a trip I go along with it An empty, thoughtless thing I'm prone to just following And merely for a sec Before I lose my step I only stand about Without making any sound
I didn't mean for this to be A bit of luck and suddenly I came to find that all this time I didn't need to see the light Your hand is reaching out for me Your warming touch is all I need And just a little smile Would make it all worthwhile And yet they always cause a little tear in my heart
Ah, as I spin As I spin As I spin Until I just Ah, can't breathe in Can't breathe in Can't breathe in I'm giving in
Ah, I can change I will change Here's the chance But I don't know Ah, I'm just scared Unprepared What can I do?
I'm stopping now I have vowed To stay here patiently but You're the only reason I'll never make it on my own
Ah, as I spin As I spin As I spin Until I just Ah, can't breathe in Can't breathe in I'm giving in
Yes, I'm the clown I'm the joke you've always known me as, so While I'm your puppet, would you kindly Please play with me again
