A new circus in town, But is it new? Or have you just not seen it before? On this field of grass, Nineteen years it stands. In this cirus a bear sits, In it's cage. Born in captivity, Will die in captivity. "Entertain" They say. "Dance" They say. Poking it with a stick everyday, Laughing at it's pain. Red from scratches, It never sleeps. Never lets it's guard down. Every night it prays, To fall alseep, And never wake up again.

Pain
A new circus in town, But is it new? Or have you just not seen it before? On this field of grass, Nineteen years it stands. In this cirus a bear sits, In it's cage. Born in captivity, Will die in captivity. "Entertain" They say. "Dance" They say. Poking it with a stick everyday, Laughing at it's pain. Red from scratches, It never sleeps. Never lets it's guard down. Every night it prays, To fall alseep, And never wake up again.
