Stone cold, in the middle of a circus
But the lights are all on you
Try to fake a smile but the curtain draws on you
When the crowd begins to cheer
It's a sign that ending is drawing near!
Presenting the world
When the lights go out
ย
The tears fade, right before their very eyes
But yours begins to shed
Fake it for a while, but the coursing darkness treads
For the behind each casting art
Is the image of a man who's torn apart
Escaping the world
When the lights go out
Fear not
I have descended before you even knew
I only told the might of you
The smile you see, can't comprehend it
But I died too long ago
So every time I start the show
I drop the act, and away I go
ย
Stone froze, for a friend with the message
But the message failed to send
Too many times I bailed
'Cause the show's about to end
Like a intermittent break
Like a purgatory sending me to shake
I walk off stage
And the lights go out
ย
You would have never believed while smiling
You would have stopped to intrigue while im frowning
You would have helped, just to shake it off
But it bled me dry
Maybe you're supposed to know
Or would it kill you to just remind yourself I'm gone
I'm broken again
As the lights go out
Fear not
I have descended before you even knew
I only told the might of you
The smile you see, can't comprehend it
But I died too long ago
So every time I start the show
I drop the act, and away I go
By the time you hear me cry
I'll have lost you through thousands of voices
All blinded by the sounds
No remorse for me is found
And I am not meant to be chained to the ground!
I have no soul, have no goal
Have no promises
Yet the mask is sealed away!
So every time I take my leave
Oh, darkness, please, oh just leave me be
Holding on for life
I can't let you know why I'm alive!
Fear not
I have descended before you even knew
I only told the might of you
The smile you see, can't comprehend it
But I died too long ago
So every time I start the show
I drop the act, and away I go
ย
By the time this little number ends
I'm gone
And you can't cure my mind
