When everything is black
And the clowns have all gone home
You're left standing in the middle of the stage

And you know that you're all alone

The clouds are made of acid and the rain is coming down

And the puddle that you stand in is the only one around
Then the colors start to fade and the blue will turn to grey
And you should run away


In the darkness
The relentless alcoholics

Are the solace that you seek
And the smile that you see is
The blinding parody

Of the soulless life you lead
And you know that you are not asleep


When everything is fading
And the clowns are all that remain
In your tragicomic life you know

It's driving you insane

The clouds are made of acid and the rain is coming down

And the puddle that you stand in is the only one around
Then the colors start to fade and the blue will turn to grey
And you should run away


And the road you're walking
Is a dead end waiting


When the life you're leading
Is the path you're taking...


And when all that's left is
All that you're making


You kick and scream but
You're still not waking.


Deep in the darkness
The relentless alcoholics

Are the solace that you seek
And the smile that you see is
The blinding parody

Of the soulless life you lead
And you know that you are not asleep
Deep in the darkness

The relentless alcoholics
Are the solace that you seek
And the smile that you see is

The blinding parody
Of the soulless life you lead
And you know that you are not asleep
