You lifted me way up
And put me in the truck
We never had enough
Of all these bread crumbs

You waved to me goodbye
Told me not to cry
I was only a boy
And I was in the circus

I mastered the trapeze
And fed the lions
It’s where I fell in love
And had my heart broken

I remember your words well
Through tears I heard you say
To be as brave as I can
This time’ll make me a man

And it shows, we never know what’s good for us
And it shows, we never knew what was good for us

After years you come and see me perform
50 feet up in the air are the stunts
So cocky, my hands are starting to sweat
Make this real, let’s take off the safety net

If you’ve one more thing to say
You better shake it
These few seconds I have left
Are all that we have

You come out, out of the crowd to see
And tear up looking down on my body
Is this real? A question asked too often
My height, weight, you put me in this coffin
