All you cheaters and you lovers,
Welcome to the show.
The main attraction of my circus;
Hypocrisy steeped in woe.
Secrets swirl darkly around
A nothing that’s ready to blow.
Paint it black so you don’t see me,
Come on now,
Let’s start the show.
See there, crumpled on the floor
Bruised and helpless where they lie,
Are the remains of a lost soul;
The sordid proof of my demise.
You can touch it if you want to,
Don’t mind it if it cries.
The tears will not stain you;
Just rinse them clean with time.
Silence won't reign forever,
Only in life,
And then it dies.
So now you know the truth.
This is the catalyst of my soul,
Reflecting my inner self,
Never ready to let it go.
And I will always linger;
My heart’s sobriquet is Ghost.
So all you cheaters and you lovers,
Come on down,
We’ll start the show.
