As the circus leaves town
Get familiar with my sound again
I can breathe again
As I bury the clowns
Don’t know where I’m goin
I only know today
I’m tired of all the diggin
Through yesterdays wake
CHORUS:
As my eyesight fades
Things are getting clearer
As wisdom reigns
Dreams are dearer
As I grow in faith
I no longer fear it
As I find my way
I can finally hear it
Don’t give me no clichés
Just tell it like it is
I aint here to fit
Into another mans game
CHORUS:
As my eyesight fades
Things are getting clearer
As wisdom reigns
Dreams are dearer
As I grow in faith
I no longer fear it
As I find my way
I can finally hear it
If I’m gonna find my place
I gotta step outside this – rat race
I gotta breathe again
Rest in my Father’s grace
CHORUS:
As my eyesight fades
Things are getting clearer
As wisdom reigns
Dreams are dearer
As I grow in faith
I no longer fear it
As I find my way
I can finally hear the sound
I can hear the sound
I can hear the sound
I can hear His sound
Yeah -
When the circus leaves town
Get familiar with the sound again
I can breathe again
When I bury the clowns
