Brandon Allday - Barnum & Bailey's lyrics

Set 'em up high so I can let you all down Let 'em uprise when it all hits the ground Minnesota nice kid flipped it all around Eyes felt the pressure as the clock unwound And back to back to let down But I've been doing this for too long So I better make a new song then move on But it's hard hitting notes with this noose on And you hope that I choke but I won't I keep breathing, climbing a rope and keep reaching And each season I feel a little more panic Like somebody lit a little old match Under the seed of the tree of the dreams that I planted Granted, not everyone that walks atop the granite Can chop an awkward octave into madness Or paint a proper picture with some blood on the canvas And everybody running the gamut From C.A. to Minneapolis, it's all the same static And we know and we grow, we're going to be a disappointment So get your joints lit and let it all turn to ash World turning to the tune of crash landers Watching balls of clay turn into a pool of mud Trying to stay afloat in today's latest flood Please take me back to the way that it was 10/19/82 and I'm done
