Pull it together, even the score
Brothers all fighting 'til mom kicked in the door
Bobby at war, maybe I'm ready
Why's mama sad?
Fallin' forever, God save the trapeze artist
Can we walk the shadow right back?
Can we walk together down the track? (God save the trapeze artist)
In the strangest dream
I'm sick, and I'm scared, and I'm high on a trapeze
My mouth is on fire, but nobody sees me
Salt of the earth, so sprinkle it easy
There was love in the house, believe me
Drink by the water, fear is my only daughter
And ever since she was born, she's had freezin' skin
But her eyes are warm, and her heart is spilling
Pale, white, sick, and thin, the drugstore killing
My voice is gone, and it used to be so strong
The reaper's ready for the harvest
And fear is where my broken heart is
In a circus tent, all grown up and gone
She's climbin' the ladder God save the trapeze artist
Can we walk the shadow right back?
Can we walk together down the track? (God save the trapeze artist)
In the strangest dream
I'm sick, and I'm scared, and I'm high on a trapeze
Can we walk the shadow right back? (God save the trapeze artist)
Can we walk together down the track?
Jesus, take my pain
I'm ready to jump if your angel can catch me
Can we walk the shadow right back? (God save the trapeze artist)
Can we walk together down the track?
In the strangest dream
I'm sick, and I'm scared, and I'm high on a trapeze
Can we walk the shadow right back?
Can we walk together down the track?
Jesus, take my pain
I'm ready to jump if your angel can catch me
