Paroles: Something Corporate. Audioboxer. Walking By.

Your grand dad left ome for the circus.
He was young just like me, with hopes to explore
He married a girl in Virginia

She could swing the trapeze; they could sleep on the floor
Your mother was born in December
On the one sunny day that winter gave up
She had warm smmer eyes that flickered like fire flys
when she stared at the world

so why do you leave these stories unfinished
my cheshire cat with tears in her eyes?
Why do you look when you've already found me?
What did you find that could leave you walking by?
She was raised in a new england village

then she moved to LA with her firefly stare
and you loved sunset strip when it sparkled,

you grew up and you sparkled but why won't you care.
so why do you leave these stories unfinished
my cheshire cat with tears in her eyes?

What did you find that could leave you walking by?
Why do you look when you've already found me?

These nights I get high just from breathing
like that firework over the freeway
when I lie here with you, I'm sure that I'm real

I could stay here all day but thats not how you feel
The circus awaits and you're already gone.
So why do you leave there questions unanswered?
my cheshire cat doorstop with fear in her smile
what makes it so easy for you to be walking by?
and what did I do that you can't seem to want me

why do we lie here and whisper goodbyes?
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me
what makes it so easy for you to be walking by
