Our Very Own Circus

Run away with me,

Say you’ll stay with me.

Don’t look back,

Don’t turn around.

If you stop

Your feet

Will get stuck in the ground.

It will pull you in,

Quicker than quicksand.

Keep on running

Or you will never be found.

 

Can we make it?

Escape from this?

Build our own circus?

It’s going to be worth it.

 

A place for us,

A home for the different.

Somewhere distant

Where no one can hear us.

 

It will be our own,

Our very own home

And we know

It will never get old.

 

This life was never meant for us,

We are unique,

Made of different stuff.

We like to dance

And we like to sing.

We like to write

And paint lots of beautiful things.

They didn’t understand us,

They couldn’t handle us,

But I couldn’t miss

Our final kiss,

In our home,

Our very own circus.

 

Can we make it?

Escape from this?

Build our own circus?

It’s going to be worth it.

 

A place for us,

A home for the different.

Somewhere distant

Where no one can hear us.

 

It will be our own,

Our very own home

And we know

It will never get old.

 

We’re getting old,

But we’re still in love.

When I think back to that

Picture painted above

My heart still skips,

It still pounds,

But it was worth it

I wouldn’t change it the second time around.

shows true love in the face of adversity. what makes their relationship unique is that they are different from the rest, motivating them to leave and travel together to a place that just for them.
