Bread and Circuses Songtext
Girl in rusted chains
Audience is waiting,
Expecting to be entertained
She fluffs out her feathers
Want you to know
That you have no place to go
You can judge, you can talk
But there can't be lasting changes
I leave my thoughts behind
And face the brightness
Bald head with golden curls
And eyes so empty...
You watch me stumble, you laugh into tears
Want to throw permanent paint on my face
Nothing's enough for my
Greedy and selfish friend today
Can you see those scars
Face behind the lightened bars
Can you see those eyes
I know you can see behind the smile
Have nothing to lose
And now you let her choose
Cause you know the mirror lies
You of all should know who's faking
Now who's faking?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me how to make them crawl
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me it was not my fault
I leave your thoughts behind
And face the darkness
My head is stained
And eyes so blind of crying
I see you crumble, it's not my concern
There's no respect left, no chance to return
You fall from the tightrope
But I have the net in my hands today
Long live the queen of justice
Audience is waiting,
Expecting to be entertained
She fluffs out her feathers
Want you to know
That you have no place to go
You can judge, you can talk
But there can't be lasting changes
I leave my thoughts behind
And face the brightness
Bald head with golden curls
And eyes so empty...
You watch me stumble, you laugh into tears
Want to throw permanent paint on my face
Nothing's enough for my
Greedy and selfish friend today
Can you see those scars
Face behind the lightened bars
Can you see those eyes
I know you can see behind the smile
Have nothing to lose
And now you let her choose
Cause you know the mirror lies
You of all should know who's faking
Now who's faking?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me how to make them crawl
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me it was not my fault
I leave your thoughts behind
And face the darkness
My head is stained
And eyes so blind of crying
I see you crumble, it's not my concern
There's no respect left, no chance to return
You fall from the tightrope
But I have the net in my hands today
Long live the queen of justice
