lirik lagu the facades - the last freak at the carnival
they call me the dreamer of lies
cause that’s what i do
they call me the singer of truths
that ain’t always true
and i, i never knew
that my time was running out
the bright lights of the big top
and the rafters, to which i’d shout
“i’m the last freak of the carnival for tonight.”
i’m a dying breed of being
made of frenzied fools and
faith, in a world we can’t
believe no more
can’t take my eyes off what i’m
seeing when the tent is coming
down, the circus leaving
town once more
i don’t know why you
do this to me
you’re a brand new line in an older
story
the myth of the
wreckage of a consecrated
man, sidelined from
glory (oh glory!)
don’t think i’ll ever get out of here alive
i can’t escape my fate tonight
last dance in the
ring (you swore you’d never let him free)
the lion’s cage has broken bars
the clowns are crashing in their cars
i just sweep and sing, the
last freak at the carnival again
when the clowns have left the stage
from their long-forgotten age
i look back at their antics
and i laugh until i choke
when the ringmaster
takes his final bow, and i
sweep up all the sparkles like a
final parting joke
i’ll spin the web
around our lives
with the p-ssion that the others can’t
hold a candle to
watch me
run through all the energy of
youth and make the sparks fly like
crazy, cause i know
don’t think i’ll ever get out of here alive
i can’t escape my fate tonight
last dance in the
ring (you swore you’d never let him free)
the lion’s cage has broken bars
the clowns are crashing in their cars
i just sweep and sing, the
last freak at the carnival again
don’t think i’ll ever get out of here alive
i can’t escape my fate tonight
last dance in the
ring (you swore you’d never let him free)
the lion’s cage has broken bars
the clowns are crashing in their cars
i just sweep and sing, the
last freak at the carnival again
