Circus of Freaks
People are bad
A circus of freaks
Tricks of betrayal
Feelings of greed
The stage lights up
The show is starting
Everyone watches
No one will help
Bruises and scars
Cover your heart
Someone stand up
Stop this freak show
Two sides of the stage
Which will you chose
Backstabbing, betrayal
Or life-scars and pain
No one can help you
You stand all alone
No one can help
Your show reeks of fear
The lights are so bright
They blind the truth
This can’t be real
It must be a dream
You must be strong
You must be brave
For this is your show
This is your life
