Someone touched me late last night
Someone tried to tie me down
Passing by at such a height
Smashing down the laughing clown
Don't tell me i'm looking well
For the truth will never tell
Cut me down, let me sleep
Promises i'll never, never keep
Something moved me in the night
Someone tried to pin me down
Asking questions, who was right
Telling me i wear the crown
Dont ask me whats on my mind
For the truth you'll never ever find
And don't tell lies no more
There's nothing left to hide
A clown can lose his foolish pride
I tried to tell you
So many times before
Give me back my pride
I could hardly ask for more!
I tried in every way
To get this through to you
I missed by miles
My message wont go through
I tried in every way
To get this through to you
I missed by miles
My message wont go through
Dont ask me whats on my mind
For the truth you'll never ever find
And don't tell lies no more
There's nothing left to hide
A clown can lose his foolish pride
Don't tell me i'm looking well
For the truth will never tell
Cut me down, let me sleep
That's a promise i'll never, never keep
Someone touched me late last night
Someone tried to tie me down
Something moved me in the night
Someone tried to pin me down
