I've been practicing standing with my back up against the wall / To give the impression that I'm ready to get the call / I am still the man if you really think I can save you from it all / 'Cause I can't even save myself I'm my own one man wrecking ball / The circus is coming to town and everybody knows I'm coming down / I used to dream of flying, 'til my feet left the ground / And now I leap over buildings, in a single bound / Scaling heights under cover of night is not what brings me down / It's my fear of falling and that you'll really find me out / Chorus / The big top, the bright lights this road show must need a man of steel / Who can hold up the illusion that everything in this world seems real / Chorus
