lyrics
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you
When I'm all alone I dream that I live for the circus
And I travel by a horse and cart la la la la
When I'm all alone I picture myself as a dancer
Swirling for the men in sequins la la la la la
And I'll be part of something bigger than this emptiness and liquor
And I'll be stronger than a giant
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
When I'm all alone I dream that I'm a sword swallower
And I'll make the people squirm and scream la la la la
When I'm all alone I wish that I was not alone
Surrounded by the freaks who love me la la la la la
And I'll be part of something bigger than this emptiness and liquor
And I'll be stronger than a giant
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
If you could see me now you may just change your mind and say
“ That girls going places, I was wrong to turn my head and look away
Not just a pretty picture, she's part of something bigger
Bigger than you bigger than me”...
And I'll be stronger than a giant
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
So don't be scared to scream your lungs out
And tell the world what these freaks are about
And we'll be part of something bigger
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me...
When I'm all alone I dream that I live for the circus
And I travel by a horse and cart la la la la
When I'm all alone I picture myself as a dancer
Swirling for the men in sequins la la la la la
And I'll be part of something bigger than this emptiness and liquor
And I'll be stronger than a giant
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
When I'm all alone I dream that I'm a sword swallower
And I'll make the people squirm and scream la la la la
When I'm all alone I wish that I was not alone
Surrounded by the freaks who love me la la la la la
And I'll be part of something bigger than this emptiness and liquor
And I'll be stronger than a giant
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
If you could see me now you may just change your mind and say
“ That girls going places, I was wrong to turn my head and look away
Not just a pretty picture, she's part of something bigger
Bigger than you bigger than me”...
And I'll be stronger than a giant
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
So don't be scared to scream your lungs out
And tell the world what these freaks are about
And we'll be part of something bigger
I'll make sure you can join my chorus
We won't be scared of what came before us
For I'll be part of something bigger
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than me, bigger than you, bigger than me...
