Burned out, Still Glowing the clown

No, I can't ever be taken serious,
and it seems my lies have began collecting dust.
I put the real in a place I know is safe,
And it's in my heart,
and my heart is yours to take.
But as far as I know, I will remain the clown
that entertains himself and,
if the smile fades, know that it was all for show anyway.
But maybe, things would be a little bit different,
and maybe the air would seem a little less cold,
And maybe if I could change myself I would change the world,
but maybe I've gone just a little too far.
And so, I'm not what I wanted to become,
Cause I speak too soon instead of playing dumb,
Well the truth is burried somewhere inside of me,
And the life I wanna lead should probably stay a dream.
