He will never leave us

The ringmaster is overbearing

Are we just his circus?

I'm tired of just entertaining

This game is way too long

Do I really deserve this?

To jump hoops now and only service

If life was a circus

I would have no amazing purpose

I would be a jester

A clown, but nothing ever lesser

I'm the butt of jokes, despite the gesture

1, 2, 3, I'm counting the times that I would cry

ABC, I'm holding onto my slipping mind

XYZ, feel like I can barely rеcognize

ABC, let's run away from herе

Don't look in the mirror, eyes are a lie here

Rationalize fear, can't recognize here

They're hiding a way out, battling my doubts

Blocking off my route, pushing me to shout

My hunger is taken, sleep is forsaken

Name is erased, my sanity's shaken

My patience is fake, I'm broken in place

Abstracted my face, can't find any steps to retrace

He has eyes everywhere

The ringmaster is always staring

He sees to every prayer

He'll answer them without complaining

He will never leave us

The ringmaster is overbearing

Are we just his circus?

I'm tired of just entertaining, ah

Oh, ESC, let's run away where he can't see

Let's find some place the sky won't speak

There's a door out there without any eyes

Oh, ESC, let's slam the key and take our leave

I'll turn this key before he turns me

Into someone used to this life he's given me
