Paroles et traduction Bobby van Jaarsveld - Sirkus

Sirkus

Dis moeilik om te praat
Terwyl daar ander mense se woorde in jou mond sit
Geprogrameerde tonge praat
Dis moeilik om te dans
Met al die toutjies om jou nek wat hulle trek
Gemanipileerde valse dans
Wees jy net wie jy is
Solank jy soos ons is
Want dis 'n sirkus
Kom en bring jou masker die waarheid lê daar agter
Die gordyne jou en my geheime
Sirkus, bewaar jou as jy iets mis
Want hier kan jy jou oë nie glo nie
Dis nie soos dit lyk nie
Dis 'n sirkus
Dis maklik om te glo
Die gras lyk altyd groener aan die ander kant
Maar dit word elke keer geplant
Wat is in 'n naam
Iets wat jy vining kry maar net so gou verloor
Die mure praat wat hulle hoor...
Vergeet nou wie jy is
Ons soek jou net soos ons is
Want dis 'n sirkus
Kom en bring jou masker die waarheid lê daar agter
Die gordyne jou en my geheime
Sirkus, bewaar jou as jy iets mis
Want hier kan jy jou oë nie glo nie
Dis nie soos dit lyk nie
Dis 'n sirkus
Gemaklik op die oor
Want dit wat die mense wil
Dit sal hulle glo
Dis die sirkus wat jy hoor

Circus

It's hard to speak
When the words of others are put in your mouth
Programmed tongues talking
It's hard to dance
With all the strings attached to your neck that they pull
Manipulated false dance
Just be yourself
As long as you're like us
Because it's a circus
Come and bring your mask the truth lies behind it
The curtains our secrets mine and yours
Circus, save yourself if you miss something
Because here you can't believe your eyes
It's not what it seems
It's a circus
It's easy to believe
The grass is always greener on the other side
But it's planted every time
What's in a name
Something you get quickly but lose just as fast
The walls talk of what they hear...
Forget who you are now
We only want you like us
Because it's a circus
Come and bring your mask the truth lies behind it
The curtains our secrets mine and yours
Circus, save yourself if you miss something
Because here you can't believe your eyes
It's not what it seems
It's a circus
Easy on the ear
Because it's what the people want
That they will believe
That's the circus that you hear
