[Verse 1] Step right up, watch the chaos unfold, Painted faces, tales untold. Spotlights shining on a twisted show, But I’m just a stranger, I’ve got to go. [Pre-Chorus] They’re juggling lies, walking tightrope schemes, Spinning their stories, breaking at the seams. [Chorus] Not my circus, not my clowns, I’m walking away when the tent falls down. Keep your madness, your painted smiles, I’m free from your three-ring trials. [Verse 2] The ringleader cracks the whip so loud, But I’m not a player in this broken crowd. Trapeze swinging, hearts on a string, I won’t be part of this carnival thing. [Pre-Chorus] They’re breathing fire, setting bridges alight, But I’ll take the road that leads out of sight. [Chorus] Not my circus, not my clowns, I’m walking away when the tent falls down. Keep your madness, your painted smiles, I’m free from your three-ring trials. [Bridge] No ticket bought, no show to see, I’m not your act, let me be. The spotlight fades, I’m out of frame, Your circus life is not my game. [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Not my circus, not my clowns, I’m walking away when the tent falls down. Keep your madness, your painted smiles, I’m free from your three-ring trials. [Outro] So spin your wheels, play your games, Call out your clowns, shout their names. I’m not your fool, I’m not your prize, I’ve got my own world, under open skies.
