(Verse 1)
I could only sit still for one moment until
You realized what I was saying to you
Life is hard sometimes, like you've realized
Picking up the broken pieces tonight

(Chorus)
A fool says in his own heart
I'm giving up and there is no God
All your life you've played that card in this
Circus, Circus
Life is hard and there will be pain
But nothing ventured, there's nothing gained
Never wanted to stay the same in this
Circus, Circus now

(Verse 2)
Broken, wounded you lie, captive to your fight
Letting hurt and sorrow dictate your life
Emptiness closes in
Crushing you within
Reaching up for light
Now your cleansing begins

(Bridge)
Hush one minute
Peace be still as the carousel slows down
All this time you're searching, running, hiding
From the One who'll make things right
Open up your eyes!
