Lyrics

Big top curtains breathing
Gaslight in the air
The crowd holds its breath
When he climbs the center stair
Boots click on the sawdust
Whip cracks through the night
Every lion kneels a little
As he steps into the light
I watch him from the tightrope
High above the flame
Everyone calls him master
But he doesn't need the name
Master of the ring tonight
Lanterns burning low
Every eye inside this tent
Is waiting for your show
And I'm watching from the high wire
Trying hard to keep my place
For the man who keeps the chaos
And the broken circus safe
He checks the wire and lanterns
Counts the knives and flames
Every beast and broken dream
Answers to his name
They say he keeps us safe here
Keeps the chaos tame
But control can feel like gravity
When you fall into his game
Master of the ring tonight
Order in the air
Like the circus breathes
Only when you're there
And I'm watching from the high wire
Trying hard to keep my place
For the man who keeps the chaos
And the broken circus safe
He doesn't raise his voice
He never has to try
Every storm inside this circus
Stills when he walks by
They say he built this kingdom
Out of blood and bone
Every soul inside this tent
Kneels before his throne
And I swear he thinks it's kindness
Every rule he makes
But his power has a gravity
No other man could take
Master of the ring tonight
Lanterns burning low
Every eye inside this tent
Is waiting for your show
And I'm watching from the high wire
Trying hard to keep my place
For the man who keeps the chaos
And the broken circus safe
Big top curtains breathing
Gaslight in the air
The show is just beginning
But I'm already there
And as the crowd keeps clapping faster
I'm falling, falling for the ringmaster
