Living in the world as time goes round and round
The room reverberates the sounds of the bells that pound
Leaving them all by themselves, going about their day
And still, there's nobody around to show them the way
Just let them stay and see one more day
Living with the world on lock
Everybody's waiting on the clock
Losing more than not
Forgot
Left them all to rot
The lessons they were taught have become an afterthought
So take his hand and follow the path
Everything's in disarray
And the hunters have a field day
I gruesome cabaret

Following the life that the show portrays
To stay in bounds and never break societal cliches
Just hold it up and feign a joyful display
Never try to take the stage
Using empty promises to save their head
They know that mostly everybody wants them dead
Before I go, I have some final thoughts
Tie a knot and use the ropes you've bought
Still alive, what a sight
Take a stride, towards the light
Tell me when, tell me why
I should die for my crimes

Sleeping to the sounds just like a lullaby
The screaming mixed with the cries of the vilified
So much idling around, bunch of tough guys (lol)
The luck rabbit will soon learn how to comply
The underdog will right all their wrongs
Listen to his melody
Join in with the revelry
They're puppets tied to a string

Soon everybody will be reclassified
Say goodbye, say goodbye
To the simple reason why
Using the people to verify all of the people within God's eye
All of the ones who were forced to abide
Gone awry, gone awry
And no longer pacified
Using the tension that underlies
Showing the public your hidden lies

Following the life that the show portrays
To stay in bounds and never break societal cliches
Just hold it up and feign a joyful display
Never try to take the stage
Using empty promises to save their head
They know that mostly everybody wants them dead
Before I go, I have some final thoughts
Tie a knot and use the ropes you've bought
Still alive, what a sight
Take a stride, towards the light
Tell me when, tell me why
I should die for my crimes
