Time is dead and gone
Show must go on
It's time for our act
They all scream at me
They cannot see
This curtain hides me
An amazing gift
So quick and swift
You were amazing
By myself I can't
They start to chant
Why are you not here?
Grinning at me
I lay on my knees
They wanna hear me
Why can he not see?
I wanna see you
I need to see you
I have to see you
What happened to you?
We get up on stage
They jump to enrage
Why are you not here?
Why is he so near?
He wants me to sing
I just cannot bring
I say he's not you
What else can I do?
Singing its silent song of misery
A monster lies trapped in its own nightmare
He is a tyrant
It lets out a plea
Why did she have to leave it all alone?
Bound to sing for us
A worthless monster
It never sees us
It despises us
Lying so useless
We start to holler
"Hey, get up, you worthless circus monster"
I lay all alone
I should have known you would've left me
He smiles at me
I cannot see why he's in your place
They can't tell me why you said goodbye
Right before our act
Those two young lions were always fun
Why did they leave too?
Roaring at me
I lay on my knees
What is happening?
I can hear you sing
They will not obey
They've been led astray
Will I still see you?
I have to see you
I panic and flee
They both pounce on me
I fell to the ground
I can't hear a sound
I look up and see
You are not with me
Am I all alone?
Where could you have gone?
Singing its silent song of misery
A monster lies trapped in its own nightmare
He is a tyrant
It lets out a plea
Why did she have to leave it all alone?
Bound to sing for us
A worthless monster
It never sees us
It despises us
Lying so useless
We start to holler
"Hey, get up, you worthless circus monster!"
Singing its silent song of misery
A monster lies trapped in its own nightmare
He is a tyrant
It lets out a plea
Why did she have to leave it all alone?
Bound to sing for us
A worthless monster
It never sees us
It despises us
Lying so useless
We start to holler
"Hey, get up, you worthless circus monster!"
Singing my silent song of misery
This monster lies trapped in my own nightmare
He is a tyrant
I let out a plea
Why did you have to leave me all alone?
Bound to sing for them
A worthless monster
I never see them
I despise them so
Lying so useless
They start to holler
"Hey, get up, you worthless circus monster!"
