The Mad Clown's Lament

Lyrics

Welcome, my child
To my grand empire
Of light and songs and wonder
Let me be your guide

The circus is long gone
It’s just me on my own
But let’s put on a show
With fire, knives and blood to flow

Trapped inside the great unknown
I can’t keep sane here on my own
Find my relief in your pain
I’ll torture you to please my brain

Murder is my cure
Madness is taking me
Agony delights me
Blood makes me feel pure

You are my next fix
I’ll show you all my tricks
You don’t need to scream
Nobody’s here you’re in a dream

Trapped inside the great unknown
I can’t keep sane here on my own
Find my relief in your pain
I’ll torture you to please my brain

Trapped inside the great unknown
I can’t keep sane here on my own
Find my relief in your pain
I’ll torture you to please my brain

Now you’re with a twisted clown
Laughing while he takes you down
No one’s here to pick you up
And suddenly, you wake up
