The Circus

[Intro]
Under the big top, where the lights never die
Step right up, see the world through a carnival eye

Blue collar scream!
[Verse 1]
The ring is spinning, faster than the race we run
Clowns and acrobats, all chasing the sun
Laughing in the chaos, juggling our fears
In this carnival of life, spinning out the years

[Pre-Chorus]
Actors in a play, caught inside the show
Dancing how they’re told, in the endless flow
Monkey on a wire, dancing for the crowd
The companies say we are free, or so they say aloud

[Chorus]
Welcome to the circus, where life’s a swirling maze
Running through the edge of a frantic phase
Laughing with the madness, crying in disguise
In this convoluted show, we all wear the disguise

[Verse 2]
Speeding through the spotlight, no time to breathe in deep
Always on the runway, promises to keep
The sideshow of existence, a spectacle of dreams
Falling faster, chasing ever-elusive schemes

[Pre-Chorus]
Tightrope walkers, balancing insane
Chasing fleeting pleasure, caught in the rain
The clown’s a mirror, and the fool's the king
In this circus’s chaos, what truth does it bring?
 Light work! 

[Chorus]
Welcome to the circus, where life’s a swirling maze
Running through the edge of a frantic phase
Laughing with the madness, crying in disguise
In this convoluted show, we all wear the disguise

[Bridge]
Round and round, the carousel spins our minds
Lost in the laughter, leaving reason behind
The monkey’s dancing, money in his eyes
Caught in the spectacle, beneath the flashing skies
 Get the fucking helper!

[Chorus]
Welcome to the shit show, where life’s a swirling maze
Running through the edge of a frantic phase
Laughing with the madness, crying in disguise
In this convoluted show, we all wear the disguise

[Outro]
So step right up, embrace the crazy ride
In this grand illusion, nowhere to hide
Life’s a circus, loud and wild and free
In the center ring, that’s where we’ll be

Heavy aggressive drums, dark circus tones,  laughing, high energy, male voice, metal
