the three rings frozen on her fingers.

I'm stronger than all the ways I've been made to feel,
Fighting with the shadows of things that were never real.

And getting through life making it tougher.

At all the goings-on

Rides speeding up and down
Through hoops and loops

Big top three-ring-circus ferris wheel and sideshow freaks

Presenting the bareback rider with a graceful fling

Fierce animals and lion tamers

Taking out many men
