In the circus of my mind tonight
Spinning socks take a daring flight
Detergent clouds in the air they twirl
Solo act in a laundry world
I’m the ringmaster of this soap parade
Taming stains with a dance I made
Under the spotlight of the moonlit glow
Spinning alone in my laundry show
The drum rolls loud as the washer hums
Acrobatic shirts flip as they come
A tightrope walk with a threadbare sheet
The applause is silent but bittersweet
I’m the ringmaster of this soap parade
Taming stains with a dance I made
Under the spotlight of the moonlit glow
Spinning alone in my laundry show
The suds form lions roaring in the sink
I juggle colors on the brink
A carnival of fabric in the night
I fold my sorrows till they’re out of sight
Each cycle spins a hypnotic tune
Under the gaze of a folding moon
The circus fades as the baskets fill
But the echoes of solitude linger still
