My actions can no longer be defined I dance across catwalks in my mind I dare not let myself slip Gazing down I see a faded clown waving back at me Mouthing words that sound so absurd coming from a painted expression ''Descend so I can ascertain your motives!'' When I come down... I see it's merely my reflections sense of humour and I screamed ''Suspend my silence for the sake of nonsense I suppose you have that right!'' Startled by my outburst I watch myself begin to crack and falter I panic knowing this is no place for a showdown I fall at my feet and hysterically shatter for stability Gathering up my pieces I mumble my motives ''How dare you disturb the cleanliness I have brought to this madness'' Putting them in my pocket I make my way back to normalcy

Well you see
My actions can no longer be defined I dance across catwalks in my mind I dare not let myself slip Gazing down I see a faded clown waving back at me Mouthing words that sound so absurd coming from a painted expression ''Descend so I can ascertain your motives!'' When I come down... I see it's merely my reflections sense of humour and I screamed ''Suspend my silence for the sake of nonsense I suppose you have that right!'' Startled by my outburst I watch myself begin to crack and falter I panic knowing this is no place for a showdown I fall at my feet and hysterically shatter for stability Gathering up my pieces I mumble my motives ''How dare you disturb the cleanliness I have brought to this madness'' Putting them in my pocket I make my way back to normalcy
