Precarious

Hurry hurry, step right up

See Zirkus' Circus Galacticus

There's a lingering sadness

Just beneath the surface clear

Passed the thin and glossy veneer

Of all we play at pretend my dear

We make our fate link by link

Places deep and dark like sticky ink

Balanced precarious and on the brink

The way they hate to remember once forced to think

Night after night the same show

The monster come, the monsters go

There's a lost odd tragedy

That runs amok in fading day

Life in this circus, come one and all

The beautiful freaks to see

Staring faces of the empty

That appear so very happy

We make our fate link by link

Places deep and dark like sticky ink

Balanced precarious and on the brink

The way they hate to remember once forced to think

Balanced precarious and on the brink

The way they hate to remember once forced to think

There's no thing that can hold back the flood

No wall or hope or bone or blood

We make our fate link by link

Places deep and dark like sticky ink

Balanced precarious and on the brink

The way they hate to remember once forced to think

Balanced precarious and on the brink
