life is like
Life is like a circus
 Like a zoo
 It looks all happy
 Until you see it staring at you
 You see the animals
 Trapped in cages 
 Full of hurt
 You see the masquerade
 Plastic faces, fake games
 You see the liars
 The sinners
 The hurt
 And you realize life plays you like a 
 Puppet
 It pulls the strings.
 You finally see the truth 
 We are not in control
 Never will be
 We are forced to hide
 In a little shell
 Where we wear a mask
 To suit our task
 Life is like a circus
 A whole fiasco of things
 Thongs gone wrong
 Things gone right
 Things that make us have no hope.
