Battle Beast - Circus of Doom lyrics

The lions are hungry And filled with rage Afraid and angry Locked in a cage (Ah) (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 (Ah) (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 (Ah) (The circus is in the town) Trying to reach the dreams Of some distant past In this circus of extremes Where nothing can last (Ah) (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 the lights go down) When there's no one around (When there's no one around) Wrapped in the absence of it all (Wrapped in the absence of it all) Trapped in silence, they fall The silence descends (The silence descends) When the lights go down (When the lights go down) Far from home and friends (Far from home and friends) Something hit the ground (Something hit the ground) Tears of a clown (My tears of a clown) When there's no one around (When there's no one around) (The circus has left) (The circus has left) (The circus has left) Left the town
