It's okay, It's alright
To play the fool has always been my plight
In this tiny circus show, I'm the nameless pierrot
As I try to balance in the center
Of a ball as round and shiny as the moon
It's my job to trip and fall for laughter
But I always get back up and smile like a buffoon
But then I saw you crying there out in the audience
Put on a happy face, you look much better when you smile
Your mom and your dad don't seem to notice
The tears streaming down your cheek but I did
Don't worry, cause I will wipe them away
It's okay, It's alright!
It doesn't hurt, I do it all the time
You should laugh, I want you to
This is what I do
It's alright, it's okay
I balance on a ball and fall away
In this tiny circus show, I'm the clumsy pierrot
You continued weeping and remarked:
"I know you're lying and it really makes me sad "
"I promise that I never told a single lie"
I said, but you only started crying once again
"Show me what you're hiding there, beneath the painted mask.
The face that you never show the audience, that's all I ask
The pain that you feel when you are beaten
And tears that you cry when no one's looking
Don't be ashamed, because we all feel the same
It's okay, it's alright
Don't worry, you don't have to fake a smile
I just want you to be true
Just be true to you
It's alright, it's okay
It doesn't matter what they have to say
You won't face it all alone, I will cry with you"
It's okay, it's alright
You helped me find what disappeared inside
It's the face I lost to time, the one that's truly mine
"It's alright, it's okay"
It's like a spell, the lie can finally fade
And the lying pierrot that I was has gone away
