Circus, Pt. I

I will wreak havoc so selfishly

And who can fathom my motives now

A valiant effort

I'm sure that they'll give

I'm almost certain to self-destruct

I won't be labeled a masochist

The pain's unbearable

When will it subside

This ain't a circus

This ain't a show

This is a tragedy that's paved in gold

And when I wake up

I'll finally be

The man you've prayed for

Just wait and see

The world premiere, now, with front row seats

Red carpet absence

No path to walk

I'm not a star, no

Just a victim of fate

I'm only bound by this cage I'm in

Turn down your ego to hear me roar

I'm not a monster

Just a man in disguise

This ain't a circus

This ain't a show

This is a tragedy that's paved in gold

And when I wake up

I'll finally be

The man you've prayed for

Just wait and see

You might think this is just entertainment

But it's not

You might think this is just entertainment

But it's not

You might think this is just entertainment but it's not

You might think this is just entertainment but it's not

You might think this is just entertainment

But it's not

This ain't a circus

This ain't a show

This is a tragedy that's paved in gold

And when I wake up

I'll finally be

The man you've prayed for

Just wait and see

This ain't a circus

This ain't a show

This is a tragedy that's paved in gold

And when I wake up

I'll finally be

The man you've prayed for

Just wait and see
