Circus Maximus
Album • 2016
Waves have washed me upon your shore Smooth seas didn’t make me a good sailor I’ve been living with you Within a dream that came alive on the side Caving in on myself Venturing deeper within me I’ve been eager to pull To pull out the thorn in my side To feel alive Waiting for the call that breaks these walls Painting these halls with the weight of it all Be the one you want to know the most I weigh me down just to pick me up I’ll show you me like you want me to be The weight has made me blind Leaving it all in open for all the world to see I’m showing me hope to make me last The dark haunts my presence and have erased my past Still the melody in my heart chimed on... chimed on... chimed on... It chimed the right tone I’ve been waiting for the call that’ll break these walls Painting these halls with the weight of it all Be the one you want to know the most I weigh me down just to pick me up I’ll show you me like you want me to be The weight has made me blind, oh, so blind I’ll show you me like you want me to be Love has made me blind...

Facing, I am fading I’ve become the word transparent Seize me as I’m wasting Bitter tears... in glorifying you Feels like I am being devoured Devoured by feeling blue I build it up, you always tear it down It seems like this is it when you’re around It’s not that I don’t wanna play the game It’s just that if I lose then you’re to blame You only aim for my weak mind The one you know that you can buy You make me sell myself to the... highest bitter Welcome to this exhibition Where I am the main attraction Come and see me in the pillory Enjoy my misery I know you’ve said it all before When it was up to you I didn’t pull it through I never cried out when you lied I just smiled and slowly died I build it up, you always tear it down It seems like this is it when you’re around It’s not that I don’t wanna play the game It’s just that if I lose then you’re to blame You only aim for my weak mind The one you know that you can buy You make me sell myself to the... highest bitter, highest bitter, highest bitter, highest bitter I build it up, you always tear it down It seems like this is it when you’re around It’s not that I don’t wanna play the game It’s just that if I lose then you’re to blame You only aim for my weak mind The one you know that you can buy You make me sell myself to the... highest bitter, highest bitter, highest bitter, highest bitter

This time I’ll go too far Go too long, gonna set the bar I’m out for blood, I wanna silence the peace ‘Cause I am havoc, let me have my release Come on! Pick a fight, swinging my right Make a sucker bleed out, knocked out, lights out, goodnight ‘Cause in the ring, I am the raging bull Here’s to me, now go get your pull I am the prosecutor, judge, executioner The sound of the hammer just sealed your fate ‘Cause I’m the arsonist, attend my wake As the Salem witches burn at the stake (Hey!) You’re gonna see me (Hey!) You’re gonna scream and (Hey!) You’re gonna feel my blade slide in your side (Hey!) You’re all beneath me (Hey!) You won’t defeat me (Hey!) ‘Cause I am here with havoc as my bride, yeah (Step right out folks! Witness a real live circus freak wreaking havoc in your neighborhood You better step out of his way or he’ll beat you to the ground. Ha-ha!) This time I’ll go too far Go too long, gonna set the bar I’m out for blood, I wanna silence the peace ‘Cause I am havoc, let me have my release (Hey!) You’re gonna see me (Hey!) You’re gonna scream and (Hey!) You’re gonna feel my blade slide in your side (Hey!) You’re all beneath me (Hey!) You won’t defeat me (Hey!) ‘Cause I am here with havoc as my bride...

Imagine me as you Be my eyes and ears As you read on Learn about my past, present and future My flaws, my belief My success and my love Loss and all my hopes My grief and my death Suffering in silence just to be a part of life Smiling at the crowd while singing words made up by lies My childhood years came and went I felt nothing to repent Minutes felt like hours and the hours seemed like Days Nights All inside is lost in Haze Frights Scared of turning another page Saved memories Read them to me and tell, tell me my story Some, some will hurt but I can’t live without... I strive to find and re-light the flame Need to re-fuel and throw away the shame Mind over matter – that’s how it’s played Suffering in silence just to be a part of life Smiling at the crowd while singing words made up by lies My childhood years came and went I felt nothing to repent Minutes felt like hours and the hours seemed like Days Nights All inside is lost in Haze Frights Scared of turning another page, oh another page

There is no need to decide Light the fire, let me die I feel no more agony It is just like it should be My burning fire, take me home My one desire, feed me more My only choir, in my dome Let me rewire... Shed my flesh inside the heat Keep on going till the last heartbeat I'll know then that I'll become The one thing you should stay away from My burning fire, take me home My one desire, feed me more (and more) My only choir, in my dome Let me rewire... I want to fade from a life that's never real All alone but I am with me I am the master of my final journey Hold onto your seat and feel And feel... My burning fire, take me home My one desire, feed me more (and more) My only choir, in my dome Let me rewire... Let me go Let me go And let me go Just let me go Let me go

I was there for a moment, but now I am gone I was watching over you and gave you all the clues So I gave new life to a withered rose Tears filled my eyes and all the rest I suppose I guess my life was ripped away from me In death, vengeance will set me free Loved ones, this is your song I wrote it to you Now that I have found what I've been looking for I wished I could tell you You can't see through my transparent flesh Floating through time and space, I'm weightless I'm in that other place where you go when you die The place where everyone goes So I gave new life to a withered rose Tears filled my eyes and all the rest I suppose Loved ones, this is your song I wrote it to you Now that I have found what I've been looking for I wished I could tell you So I gave new life to a withered rose Tears filled my eyes and all the rest I suppose I guess my life was ripped away from me In death, vengeance will set me free Vengeance will set me free... Loved ones, this is your song I wrote it to you Now that I have found what I've been looking for I wished I could tell you

Intentionally lost Never to be found Some time ago this flame This flame was drowned I wished last time would be the last Leaving those moments far, far in the past Hiding... from your eyes to see Hoping you would not remember me (remember me) In a safe haven I’ll be free (I’ll be free) I’ll be free! This passage could only end in flames With no room for reason just starting the game With only one breath again so blind This wave of emotions poisoned my mind (Give up this heart left shattered) Survivor alone you stand (With a last leap of faith) The flames will make their brand (One thing is certain) Everything will burn (Within the ruins of men) Save what you can... (Hiding) from your eyes to see Hoping you would not remember me In my haven I’ll be free, oh... And I’ll never again re-light this spark Never again serve as your mark Never again stand in the mire Never again be after the fire Come near... Appear... Act out... Don’t shout... I will not fear... Head clear... Fall out... Just go about... Closing in on me I feel the heat rising here Within the deep pitch black Alone with the wolf pack I hold up the spear And I pierce through the fear Push forward, hit full strength I have the heart to go the full length Come near... Appear... Act out... Don’t shout... I will not fear... Head clear... Fall out... Just go about... And I’ll never again re-light this spark Never again serve as your mark Never again stand in the mire Never again be after the fire And I’ll never be (and I’ll never be) after the fire No I’ll never be (no I’ll never be) after the fire I’ll never be (I’ll never be) after the fire (fire...)

Name the place so you'll remember Just open your eyes and see Then make believe what has been is the center That ignites the light within you The voice inside is your defender Just speak the words and see Then make them bleed right through and pierce your armor Reveal the one within you Make your way through the madness that is life Embrace what you might find If sadness clouds your mind You will have the tools to use You'll only have to choose The voice inside is your defender Just speak the words and see Then make them bleed right through and pierce your armor Reveal the one within you Remember when it all caves in The marks you bear that makes you win In the dark you search within Just remember when it comes to giving in The battlefield is yours to win Remember how, remember when we wore The coat of arms that made us heroes of the day Just render the memories again, my friend You know it lies within, you know where to begin Remember when it all caves in The marks you bear that makes you win In the dark you search within Just remember when it comes to giving in The battlefield is yours to win

Run away, far away From the past that’s chasing you Run away, win the race Let your will carry you home And then you tumble along the way It catches you up like you were prey It shakes you up and make you regret (I used to love you. I used to care. You loved me and trusted me, but I betrayed you. You were just standing there with tears in your eyes. I should have felt something, but I was just empty inside... I know I should have helped you out of this puddle of mud, instead of pushing your head in face first.) You’ve, you’ve reached the borderline You’ve, you’ve reached the borderline It’s getting closer You can feel the heat It’s getting nearer There’s no defeat... Dig a hole and hide To the soil you may confide Until it collapses and buries you alive I guess you were unaware of it all Ignorance blinded your actions Where do you go when you’ve gone too far? An act of chivalry Disgracefully Unfaithfully Borderline Borderline Borderline Borderline
