Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This house is a circus, berserk as fuck
We tend to see that as a perk, though
Look what it's done to your friends, their memories are pretend
And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end
This house is a circus, berserk as fuck
We tend to see that as a perk, though
Look what it's done to your friends, their memories are pretend
And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end
[Verse 2]
There's a room for the trouble and there's lovers to be had
Those ones that make sinners out of such lovely lads
Scaling the corridors for maidens in the maze
And then the anomaly is slipping into familiar ways
And we're forever unfulfilled
And can't think why
Like a search for murder clues
In dead man's eyes
Forever unfulfilled
And can't think why
Like a search for murder clues
In dead man's eyes
[Verse 3]
The more you open your mouth, the more you're forcing performance
And all the attention is leading me to feel important (Completely obnoxious, keep me obnoxious)
Now that we're here, we may as well go too far
[Verse 4]
Wriggling around in incidents you won't forget
There's certainly some venom in the looks that you collect
Aimlessly gazing at the faces in the queue
And we're struggling with the notion that it's life, not film
[Verse 5]
This house is a circus, berserk as fuck (We're forever unfulfilled)
We tend to see that as a perk, though (And can't think why)
Look what it's done to your friends, their memories are pretend (Like a search for murder clues)
And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end
