EN
She's the trapeze artist The dancer in the dark Like a fallen angel With the purest of all hearts ​ Times of endless stories Say when she was born Was left to her luck In the streets with no remorse ​ (La la la) ​ Then came a Ringmaster Saw her there alone Picked from the cold And then raised her as his own ​ In the years that followed She grew to be a doll A beautiful and shy girl She was like no other one ​ Travelled with the circus From one place to the next Conquered every heart That would see her in the air ​ (La la la) ​ Every night the circus Called her name to all She would take the stage To a thunderous applause ​ She was like an Angel She was paradise Sadness is her lips And the beauty of her eyes ​ Fallen from the heavens Untouched by men's lies She was not of earth But a spirit from the skies ​ But what no one noticed What they never saw Truly that the artist Wanted to let her life go ​ So one night this angel Stood above and high Her hands took the rings And her body touched the sky Once more ​ Screams filled all the tent as Everyone would cry All of the performers Felt the tears had left their eyes ​ Spread against the shadows Dead upon the floor Just as she had wanted She had finally left the world ​ (Ahhh)
