about

side1 track 6

lyrics

The self playing piano
Plays an out of tune rendition
Appeasing my intuition
Appeasing my intuition

When you woke you found yourself dreaming
Looking at your reflection
Tunnels of sorrow speak your mind
Tunnels of sorrow speak your mind

Send in the clowns lost in static
Saying goodbye is a heartfelt act
Sadness lost on a lonely clown
Saying goodbye to a lonely clown

Teetering upon the high wire act
Never deemed to know
Shoes so old laces worn
A soul/sole ripped from its’ show

Paint faded and smeared across
Wrinkles in time
Wilted flower proof of time
Proof of time gone by

Send in the clowns lost in static
Saying goodbye is a heartfelt act
Sadness lost on a lonely clown
Saying goodbye to a lonely clown

I loved you with all my heart
From the very very start
If I’d known the burden you bore
If I’d known the burden you bore
I’d lead us to the stars
I’d lead us to the stars

Skin and bone creating drapes
Drapes of empty tones
Juxtaposing laughing and crying
Juxtaposing laughing and crying

What spurts from your corsage flower?
Tears of loneliness or sorrow?
My laughter assaults your joy
Leaving you in desperation

Send in the clowns lost in static
Saying goodbye is a heartfelt act
Sadness lost on a lonely clown
Saying goodbye to a lonely clown
If I’d known the burden you bore
I’d lead us to the stars
I’d lead us to the stars
