Side Show
Winslow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

6am and feelin? tired
Been runnin? every day
The weight of the world is on my back
Feelin? the strain in every way
I begin to cry
As reality sets in, just feel like givin? in
What would you do what would you say when it all goes away?
When I am down
Would you be my clown helping my get through to the other side?
When it all goes astray would you fade away
Or would you be?
Would be my side show

Day goes to week and week to month
As I travel down this road
Where will we stop
Where will we get to
It seems nobody knows
And I begin to try to take one step at a time for the rest of my life
What would you do what would you say when it all goes away?

When I am down
Would you be my clown helping my get through to the other side?
When it all goes astray would you fade away
Or would you be?
Would be my side show
6am and feelin tired. Been runnin every day
And oh the weight of the world is on my back
But would you be?

When I am down
Would you be my clown helping my get through to the other side?
When it all goes astray would you fade away




Or would you be?
Would be my side show

Maurice has an extremely talented voice, I think there's so much potential with this band, it's just sad that neo soul music isn't that popular. People would rather listen to Rebecca Black- Friday than to a group of talented performers.
