|
Another dreamer steps on to the stage |
|
He sings his hope and his fear and his rage |
|
As the applause from the crowd starts to fade |
|
He hears them swallow the key to his cage |
|
Welcome to the machine |
|
It's a currency generator |
|
And then it's a guillotine |
|
A mirror held up to your own behavior |
|
I'm gonna take my bow |
|
And disappear into the sound |
|
I'm leaving my cage on the ground |
|
When I take my bow (take my bow) |
|
I want you to come to the ground |
|
See my feet falling down from the clouds |
|
The dreamer dances inside of his cage |
|
All his music and words are the same |
|
But in the moment he exits the stage |
|
You hear him whisper a prayer for the frames |
|
Welcome to the machine |
|
It's a currency generator |
|
And then it's a guillotine |
|
A mirror held up to your own behavior |
|
I'm gonna take my bow |
|
And disappear into the sound |
|
I'm leaving my cage on the ground |
|
When I take my bow (take my bow) |
|
I want you to come to the ground |
|
See my feet falling down from the clouds |
|
When they distinguish your name |
|
It may extinguish your flame |
|
I'm gonna take my bow |
|
And disappear into the sound |
|
I'm leaving my cage on the ground |
|
When I take my bow (take my bow) |
|
I want you to come to the ground |
|
See my feet falling down from the clouds |
|
When they distinguish your name |
|
I'm leaving my cage on the ground |
|
It may extinguish your flame |
|
I'm leaving my cage on the ground |
|
So trade those ashes for a cry |
