Freakshow

Took you on a roller-coaster
Now you’re riding to the wall of death
Only doing what you’re supposed to
Tell me baby what will you do next?
Welcome to the freakshow
Who’s that freakin'?
Well what do you know
You only reap the love you sow
D’you only beat up on the ones you love?
Welcome to the freakshow babe
Another debt left unpaid
Finger pointin' 'cause you feel afraid
Think you’re lying on the bed you made
Heard you screaming on the roller coaster
Dragged you bleeding from the wall of death
Took your picture in a hall of mirrors
Who broke your spirit?
Now there’s no one left
Tell me baby, no I’d like to know
Do you still beat up on the ones you love?
No really, I’d like to know
Hello hello — welcome to the freakshow
Welcome to the freakshow babe
You only reap the love you sow
You get to share the front row
When that corpse you thought you’d buried
He starts to grow
Maybe there’s a light down here
Baby it became so clear
Listen, it’s comin' closer
You listen and you learn to hear
I feel the same pain baby
Oh yeah the boy’s insane
Auf weidersehen babe
Still riding the ghost train
Bought your ticket on the wall of death
I’m still standing though darkness reigns
I’m still fightin' just to catch my breath
Still standing — still laughing
Learning to survive
Welcome to the freakshow
Still frightened just to feel alive?
Welcome to the freakshow
You only reap the love you sow
I believe this time you know
That all you need’s another miracle
And now you’re just another echo
Another cry from limbo
Just one more freak I used to know
