    Life is a carnival, full of clowns
    and people hiding behind masks.

    Everyone’s having fun, but on the
    inside we all fight for the prize
    for best costume.

    Life is just a competition, the athlets
    are winning.
    The mask, the skecth is falling of,
    I’m going forward, showing my real face.

    People gasping, what’s under their masks?
    What’s wrong with the actual me?
    Why do you all turn?

    You’re telling me i’m not good enough,
    my costume don’t sparkle enough.

    Well, this is me. I’m a travler.
    A little gipsy girl can’t dress
    like the gueen of Saba.

    Life is just like a carnival,
    full of clowns and
    people hiding behind masks.

    'Everyone’s having fun, but on the

    What an insight! When we're able to so sharply encapsulate our feelings we become alchemists in the best tradition the trade had of old. Write on, Cassi!
