What Was I Thinking?

[Verse 1]
What was I thinking? What have I done?
Feel like I'm staring down the barrel of a gun
I saw it coming, I should have run
What was I thinking when I said I'd be the one?

[Chorus]
Stop fooling around—stop saying that everything's okay
There's no one around so stop playing the clown
'Cause when the circus blows this town
It'll be me who cleans the cages
It'll be me who breaks the stages down

[Verse 2]
What was I thinking? What have I done?
Trying to be every single thing to everyone
You're in the corner, I'm on the run
What was I thinking when I said I'd be the one?

[Chorus]
Stop fooling around—stop saying that everything's okay
There's no one around so stop playing the clown
'Cause when the circus blows this town
It'll be me who cleans the cages
It'll be me who breaks the stages

[Bridge]
It'll be me who talks you down
It'll be me who sticks around
It'll be me who picks the pieces off the ground
It'll be me

[Chorus]
Stop fooling around—stop saying that everything's okay
There's no one around so stop playing the clown
'Cause when the circus blows this town
It'll be me who cleans the cages
It'll be me who talks you down
So stop fooling around—stop saying that everything's okay
There's no one around so stop playing the clown
'Cause when the circus blows this town
It'll be me who cleans the cages
It'll be me who breaks the stages
It'll be me who talks you down, who talks you down
It'll be me
