歌词
The lions are hungry
and filled with rage
afraid and angry
locked in a cage
The circus is coming to town
Bright colours and string lights
shining in the heights
the sound of an old music box
a spooky melody that never stops
The circus is coming to town
Ashes to ashes
and dust to dust
Bread and circuses to masses
lust turning to disgust
In this circus of doom
marionettes are dancing
circus of doom
time passes and fades away
circus of doom
shadows keep on laughing
Whiplash and scream
one more broken dream
in silence they fall
tears of a clown
Acrobats are hanging
high in the air
forever, never landing
smiles upon despair
The circus is in the town
trying to reach the dreams
of some distant past
in this circus of extremes
where nothing can last
The circus is in the town
Ashes to ashes
and dust to dust Bread and circuses to masses
lust turning to disgust
In this circus of doom
marionettes are dancing
circus of doom
time passes and fades away
circus of doom
shadows keep on laughing
Whiplash and scream
one more broken dream
in silence they fall
tears of a clown
What will remain
of a life spent underground
an echo of pain
fear that makes no sound
When the lights go down
When there’s no one around
Wrapped in the absence
of it all
Trapped in silence
they fall
The silence descends
when the lights go down
far from home and friends
something hit the ground
Tears of a clown
When there’s no one around
The circus has left the town.
