All dressed up, I'm going to the circus dance
Don't wait up, ain't gonna be coming back
All dressed up on the way to the circus square
The first day of the rest of my life out there

You'd be better off peeling your skin 'till
Bone's exposed, better off digging
Deep inside your eye and welcome infection
You'd be better of rubbing in

I've come down to dig in the circus bliss
I'm left picking up pieces of what I missed
I stand still in the void of the circus theft
I see it in the eyes of the waste that's left

You'd be better off peeling your skin 'till
Bone's exposed, better off digging
Deep inside your eye and welcome infection
You'd be better of rubbing

Salt in your eye, on your bone, on your open soul
You'll bear and no one will care
Just left alone, we're always alone
In the search for more crumbs in the dark
You would've said I should go again
Picture the fame, it will lead you
Through the wreck and pull you in

Who would of known it would be this way
Picture the frail, picture all of
Those who stand and stare today
Stop trying to figure it out
Who could connect the dots?

No one can plan this out
You would've known by now

Tweak what deludes you out
Filter the pose aside
It sure's been a wild ride
All dressed up on the way to the circus square
The first day of the rest of my life out there

You'd be better off peeling your skin 'till
Bone's exposed, better off digging
Deep inside your eye and welcome infection
You'd be better of rubbing
Salt in your eye, on your bone, on your open soul
You'll bear and no one will care
Just left alone, we're always alone
In the search for more crumbs in the dark

Stop trying to figure it out
And as far as I know
No one could plan this out
