Like spinning plates

While you make pretty speeches,
I'm being cut to shreds
You feed me to the lions,
a delicate balance

And this just feels like spinning plates
I'm living in cloud cuckoo land
And this just feels like spinning plates
My body is floating down the muddy river

(the piano-vocal version of this song on "i might be wrong" could probably be one of the prettiest songs I have ever heard.)
