Standing in the dark waiting for a spark to set my world alight to guide me through the night I just wanna leave here, so many times I tried then I close my eyes
And I feel like I'm stuck on a merry-go-round like a roller coaster hanging upside down all I want is for my feet to touch the ground as it is I stay here, forever play the clown
searching for the mark I feel my way around all these peering eyes, how did I get so high? I don't wanna be here, I count the reasons why still I close my eyes
And I feel like I'm stuck on a merry-go-round like a roller coaster hanging upside down all I want is for my feet to touch the ground as it is I stay here, forever play the clown
balance is what I live for and so I toe the line never looking downward, always reaching for the prize my mother's always proud, she's sweet as apple pie my father taught me how, how not to live a lie I'm perfect in their eyes...thank you
So I find myself up here, I've got a job to do They're wishing they were me, I'm wishing I was you I've got no more excuses, I'm through with asking why I'm destined for the sky
And I feel like I'm stuck on a merry-go-round like a roller coaster hanging upside down all I want is for my feet to touch the ground as it is I stay here, forever play the clown I just want love
