Dying to be Living

from Cirkus 5 - Trapeze by Cirkus

/

lyrics

Winters can be hard here
Summers are so short
I'm a stranger in a strange land
With nowhere to call home
My world's just a dark room
With no key for the door
The walls around me are closing in
Someone takes the floor, someone takes the floor

And says there's no time for sorrow
The universe is so vast
So pull yourself together now
You're dying to be living in the past

Walking on a tightrope
And I'm closer to the edge
On the brink of a precipice
I look down and see my fate
So back to the retail world
And the wonderland of hard sell
There's no point in this point of sale
You're doing oh so well, you're doing oh so well

There's no time for sorrow
The universe is so vast
So pull yourself together now
You're dying to be living in the past
