Carnival of Shadows

(Verse 1) Under the big top, where the shadows creep, Lives a clown, with secrets dark and deep. With a grin that chills, and eyes that gleam, He dances in the night, a nightmare's dream. (Chorus) Step right up, to the carnival's heart, Where laughter ends, and screams start. In the glow of the moon, the clown takes his bow, The laughing reaper, the terror of now. (Verse 2) Juggling knives, with a flair so bold, His tales of horror, sinister and cold. In the ring of fire, he casts his spell, Leading all to a merry hell. (Bridge) Whispers spread, of the circus so grim, Where the lights grow dim, and hopes slim. Yet the crowd comes, drawn to the fear, Enthralled by the clown, they draw near. (Chorus) Step right up, to the carnival's heart, Where laughter ends, and screams start. In the glow of the moon, the clown takes his bow, The laughing reaper, the terror of now. (Chorus) Step right up, to the carnival's heart, Where laughter ends, and screams start. In the glow of the moon, the clown takes his bow, The laughing reaper, the terror of now. (Verse 3) Behind the mask, a mystery lies, A soul twisted, under moonlit skies. In the carnival's echo, his laughter rings, A melody of madness, on shadowed wings. (Outro) So heed the call, of the circus night, Where darkness dwells, in the spotlight. For the clown walks, where fear is sown, In the carnival of shadows, his power is shown. In the carnival of shadows, (Chorus) Step right up, to the carnival's heart, Where laughter ends, and screams start. In the glow of the moon, the clown takes his bow, The laughing reaper, the terror of now.
