"Ready! One-two-three-four, all together, now!"
"What's all this?"
"Well haven't you heard? The circus is in town!"
*looks around* "It is?"
"Why, of course it is! The circus is always in town in Dreamworld!"
"Dream... what?"
"Come on, you're going to be late for the show! Hurry, now, everybody in your places."
*Walks among a crowd of people* "Say... do I know you guys?"
"Nope."
"We are--"
"A figment--"
"Of your--"
"Imagination."
"Hurry hurry!"

*Music starts. Odd dances are thus performed. I find myself on a slowly descending chair comeing down from the ceiling.*

"Theres a little creepy house
In a little creepy place
Little creepy town
In a little creepy world."

"Little creepy girl
With her little creepy face
Saying funny things that you have never heard." I dance along with everybody, still in the chair. I'm lifted up on a stack of performers.

"Do you know what it's all about?
Are you brave enough to figure out?
Know that you could set your world on fire
If you are strong enough to leave your doubts." As I'm walking on stage, the scenary changes to various places I've been in my dreams.

"Feel it...
Breath it...
Belive it...
And you'll be walking on air--" Levitates over the stage.
"Go try...
Go fly...
So high..
And you'll be walking on air--" People start flying with me.
"You feel this...
Unless you kill this...
Go on...
And your forgiven...
I knew that...
I could feel that...
I feel like...
I am walking on air..." I fall back to the ground in a completely different place. More people dance around me. Some remain still like statues.

"She has a little creepy cat
And a little creepy bat
Little rocking chair
And an old blue hat.
That little creepy girl
Oh, she loves to sing.
She has a little gift
An amazing thing." Boy takes my hand and lifts me off armchair to dance with me.
"With her little funny eyes of hazel" My eyes turn evil from spite.
"With her little funny old blue hat
She will go and set the world on fire" Kisses him on cheek. Lipstick turns out to be toxic. He falls over slowly.
"No one ever thought she could do that..."

"Feel it...
Breath it...
Belive it...
And you'll be walking on air--" Scenery changes again.
"Go try...
Go fly...
So high..
And you'll be walking on air--" Stauesque people come to life and dance around.
"You feel this...
Unless you kill this...
Go on...
And your forgiven..." Blows kisses.
"I knew that...
I could feel that...
I feel like...
I am walking on air..." The ground begins to rumble. Behind me, a large crevice opens up... then another... then another... until I'm trapped. I looked up and no one's paying attention. I scream but nothing comes out. Finally I give up and try to jump across the crevices, bringing me into slow motion.

"Flitter up and--" Further...
Hover down, be--" and further...
All around, be--" Almost...
All around..." I'm not gonna make it--

I suddenly land in boy's arms. Annoyed, I shake away, causing me to do some crazy spin in the air, and, oddly, I land on my feet standing right in the palms of another guy's hands.
"You know that I love you
Go on..." I jump off, landing like a ballerina. Someone tries to grab me...

"Feel it...
Breath it...
Belive it...
And you'll be walking on air--" 'Let go of me!'
"Go try...
Go fly...
So high..
And you'll be walking on air--" 'I'm warning you!'
"You feel this...
Unless you kill this...
Go on...
And your forgiven..." 'Oh bother.'
"I knew that...
I could feel that...
I feel like...
I am walking on air..." Finally jumps away. Scenery goes back to the stage where we started out. I walk casually to the seat that starts ascending into the ceiling.
"I am walking on air..." Up and up and up it goes. Lights dim. Dancers slow. Audience cheers. Everyone bows.
