Acrobat

                                  So you're a poet

But you've never got a line

Some failed creation

None of it was worth my dime

So much attention

And you horde it like a thief

But you never worry

Just drain them 'til you find relief, yeah



Did you trip the wire?

Did the whole thing blow?

Did you come alive

when it was over?



Darling beware

You're no acrobat

You shot to dove

Must believe you're the colossal coming

Cruel and unfair

You'll always be that

Sure as I'm gone

I hit the ground and I'm more than running



Well, any kind of treason

And you follow like a sheep

Well, everyone's joking

But you cut down a little deep

There is no limit

To whatever you become

You smile at the teacher

But you love yourself more than anyone, yeah



Did you trip the wire?

Did the whole thing blow?

Did you get in time to the shade?

Will you come alive

when it's all over?

Over!



Darling beware

You're no acrobat

You shot the dove

Must believe you're the colossal coming

Cruel and unfair

You'll always be that

Sure as I'm gone

I hit the ground and I'm more than running



Darling beware

Darling beware

You shot the dove

You shot the dove

Cruel and unfair

You'll always be that

Sure as I'm gone

I hit the ground and I'm more than running
