I'm a simple creature Driving into lapping ripples headfirst A bug with no out rage I've got solace in the windowsill The stage is emptied All the pageantry is gone But what if the abyss is all there is And I'm just somebody's gagman In a wild circus show? Am I flesh and gore or dream and vapor? Or just a clown? Laughing at the ultimate comedown A fool without a crown Infinitely bound To the ultimate comedown Two gears operate On a 2D animation I spring like an acrobat Or dissolve into thin air Cascading lifeblood Falls from my deathless head But what if the abyss is all there is And I'm just somebody's gagman In a wild circus show? Am I flesh and gore or dream and vapor? Or just a clown? Laughing at the ultimate comedown A fool without a crown Infinitely bound To the ultimate comedown Wind clash with crystal spheres That hold the sun and moon in place Underwater bombs explode Into a constant flow of fates But what if the abyss is all there is And I'm just somebody's gagman In a wild circus show? Am I flesh and gore or dream and vapor? Or just a clown? Laughing at the ultimate comedown A fool without a crown Infinitely bound To the ultimate comedown
