Circus Of Doom

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

I stand alone and wonder why Why did we come down where All hope is dead or dying? Flames strike the ground like crimson rain Prayers to an open sky Won't drown out all the cries in vain Till you will come again Take me back to the memory Play me song and the melody Praying for you to cover me With your wings of light Make me one with my enemy Raise me up to the heavens I'm waiting for you to come And take me on your wings of light, oh Now as I gaze 'cross burning ground How I lament the desolation that surrounds me Bow to the king that bears my crown Howl of the wind shall haunt These halls that must confine me now Hear my heart crying out Take me back to the memory Play me song and the melody Praying for you to cover me With your wings of light Make me one with my enemy Raise me up to the heavens I'm waiting for you to come And take me on your wings of light Take me back to the memory Play me song and the melody Praying for you to cover me With your wings of light Make me one with my enemy Raise me up to the heavens I'm waiting for you to come And take me on your wings of light, oh With your wings of light

The birds are flying low the same old song is going on, and on Way too many times I’ve seen this same old twisted pantomime They say the darkest hours are just before the dawn that we must die to be reborn I’m still alive, I’m ready for the pain if I fall, I’ll rise again I spread my wings and like the midnight sun I will be rising into the frozen heights where stars are born and where they die I’m lighting up horizons with thunder and lightning through the darkest skies where even angels fear to fly It felt like the end they hit the ceiling and they fell, and fell The wind already blew and the rays of light were shining through They say the darkest hours are just before the dawn that we must die to be reborn I’m still alive, I’m ready for the pain when I fall, I’ll rise again Through the glass ceiling we will fly The truth comes screaming loud and high Echoes of old lies will die This is where my dreams begin I feel the power from within I spread my wings and like the midnight sun I will be rising into the frozen heights where stars are born and where they die I’m lighting up horizons with thunder and lightning through the darkest skies where even angels fear to fly

The dark clouds are gathering Chaos entwined Thunder and lightning I need shelter tonight The edge of what I can endure Been there, riding through the storm, in the snow Must go, flee before the fall To the place, where I can feel the love Through the cold My heaven, the Eye of the Storm The place I want to go Serene and beautiful My place to rest, my heart and soul My heaven, the Eye of the Storm Shrouded by the fog Protected from the cold Where its warm, where I’ll endure The light keeps on burning As the storm rages on It’s time for hope and learning A golden future unfolds Enough, the past exists no more The pain, the darkness in my soul, finally gone Carry on, escape the masquerade Get away, before it’s just too late Break the chains My heaven, the Eye of the Storm The place I want to go Serene and beautiful My place to rest, my heart and soul My heaven, the Eye of the Storm Shrouded by the fog Protected from the cold Where its warm, where I’ll endure

The road to Avalon We drive through the mud Breaking the rules of gravity We ain't brothers by blood But the road makes us family Whoa Doesn't matter what we search for Or what we might find No matter who we were before And what we leave behind Yesterdays will fade away And tomorrows are yet asleep I tame the road and seize the day My shadow is too slow for me Through the years and through the storms Wherever we will roam Freedom is my uniform And you are my home Where the road meets the sky And wild winds blow high This is where I belong I'm on the road to Avalon I've got ink on my skin And fire in my soul I've got a beast within And dreams beyond control Yesterdays will fade away And tomorrows are yet asleep I tame the road and seize the day My shadow is too slow for me Through the years and through the storms Wherever we will roam Freedom is my uniform And you are my home Where the road meets the sky And wild winds blow high This is where I belong I'm on the road to Avalon The road to Avalon Divine symphony of the streets Echoes in my heart So, I will travel on This is where I belong (Avalon) Through the years and through the storms Wherever we will roam Freedom is my uniform And you are my home Where the road meets the sky And wild winds blow high This is where I belong I'm on the road to Avalon Avalon

In the times full of struggle and strife In the land where the fires burn colder Time after time you are struck And you're beaten down These are times when you know You're on your own No-one to stand by your shoulder Go, turn your back to the cold, face the raging storm And carry on Into the world that was lost so far beyond Ride the four winds and set your mind free to roam Where the heart's good as golden Where your spirit can lie To the place that we call home Have you stood in the first morning light? Have you walked on the shores of the holy? Few are the ones gone to sail o'er the flaming seas Where the moon lights the day, the sun lights the night The shine of the stars guides your journey Shake loose the shackles that bind, claim your destiny Just to be free Into the world that was lost so far beyond Ride the four winds and set your mind so free to roam Where the heart's good as golden Where your spirit will lie To the place that we call home To the place that we call home Safe unto shelter Away from the storm Some day we'll lay our burdens on those virgin shores Where our sins cast no shadow And our mind is our own To the place that we call home Into the world that was lost so far beyond Ride the four winds and set your mind so free to roam Where the heart's good as golden Where your spirit will lie To the place that we call home To the place that we call home
