I'll never tell you what I saw
or how it made me breathe
I'll never repeat what I heard
how long it took me to leave
I'll never tell you what I saw
or how it made my smile freeze
'cause this world is a whirlwind
but I'm holding the trapeze
and I'll never tell you what I sawI'll never tell you who I loved
or how they made me free
I'll never tell you how I slept
back when I was fifteen
I thought that I could just forget
the bricks that have built me
but this world is a whirlwind
and I'm holding the trapeze
and I'll never tell you who I lovedbut if I could tell you one thing
I would tell you I'm not leaving
if I could show you one thing
oh my mistakes have shaped me
into who I am, and who I am
just wants to make you homeI'll never tell you why I drive
into the night and back again
I hardly speak of my hometown
my little hands in the cement
I'll never tell you what I saw
close the door, swallow the key
but this world is whirlwind
and I'm holding the trapeze
yeah this world keeps on turning
love is carried endlesslyyeah this world is a whirlwind
and I'm holding the trapeze
so I'll never tell you what I saw
