Come on down and pay a visit to the circus
It won't cost you much
Just come prepared with some thick skin
We can all get along for the first five minutes
Then from there, just hold your breath
Try not to let your head spin, yeah

It doesn't matter how long you're gone
You're still the same
It doesn't matter how hard you try
You still get called every other name in the book
Everybody's too tired to care
Everybody's skin shoots off
Everybody's hearts are bare
Everybody's hearts are bare

Down by the water you can dip your toes in it
Can almost forget what it was like back then
No one needs to know
No one cares where you've been
No one needs to know
No one needs your thick skin
Your thick skin
