Your performance is almost over
When you're through I will take you home
To a place where the water's always fresh and cool
I will lay you down, take off your shoes
Yes, the curtain is about to take your place
There's that sad, almost grin upon your face
'Cause you know you've done your best
Now honey leave the rest to me and I'll take care of you
As they watch you fall down to your knees
They don't know that you're praying to please
They don't see the little angel at your back with a star
The only one who knows exactly who you are
You're a thing that makes music they don't understand
And they cheer as you carry out your endless plan
You are weary but you must, it's the only thing you trust
As you live you've got to give
Your performance is almost over
When you're through I will take you home
You're a ghost that I can see, you're the other part of me
Now honey I will take care of you
'Cause you know you've done your best

One day he was admiring his reflection
In his favorite mirror when he realized all too clearly
What a freakin' old beasty man he was
Who is? You is, you is now, son
I took to hiding, I took to hiding
I took to hiding, hiding strange things
I took to dribbling, we took to dribbling down my front
I starting running, I starting running on the spot
Picture, picture, now I'm gonna eat your
Picture, picture, now I'm gonna eat ya
We're all food, your cake
We're all the food, your weirdos' cream
Quick, quick, fast, fast, quick, quick, fast, fast
I took to dribbling, I took to dribbling down my front
You took to hiding, you took to hiding strange things
One day she was touching her reflection
In her favorite mirror when she realized all too clearly
What a freakin' old weirdo she was
Who was? She was, she is
Fast, fast, quick, quick, quick, quick, fast, fast
She took to hiding, she took to hiding strange things

Clouded stars that the future will send
And the broken nights that only time will mend
Eternity cannot fade the truth
That nothing is what this hunger's feasting on
Clouded stars that the future will send
And the broken nights that only time will mend
Eternity cannot fade the truth

Some say happiness is a burden
As I lie here trying to attain
Inside/Outside I’m nothing
But the more I see through the more I have to gain
If at first you don’t succeed it’s normal.
But the second time you’re expected to perform.
We perform,
Stand up, listen, I’ll tell you where we went wrong.
Give me a reason to stop asking
I know that some things can’t be mine
Inside/Outside I’m nothing
And the layers crumble one piece at a time.
If you expect me to go out there and shine every night
You know there’s something about that that just isn’t right
We perform

A branch of cold flames
Hangs over your head
The one thing you could never burn
Its shadow's hanging over you
The shadow's never there
Explodes all over again
Shakes, we take control today
Shakes, give all your secrets away
Shakes, give us your soul today
Shakes, give it all away
To crush this foolish pride
I'm standing under glass
Trying to break through all the time
But deception never fails
Can't discover what's seen
What's seen behind these cold eyes
Shakes, give us your soul today
Shakes, give all your secrets away
Shakes, we take control today
Shakes, give it all away
Shadows over masses
Faces gun charge
It was too much fun all the time
She said your death must come first
To make this dream more real
You'll never be free again
Shakes, give us your soul today
Shakes, give all your secrets away
Shakes, we take control today
Shakes, give it all away
Shakes, shakes, shakes
Shakes, shakes, shakes
Shakes, shakes, shakes

Take it easy check me out
I move from the car wash
Your hands are not clean
From your fascist graffitti
I'm getting kind of tired
Descending escalators
To the heart of the subway
But you are not the only one, baby
Check me out
Oh well it's getting kind of silly
Inadequate bodies are waging a war
But you'd better check the situation
Your mouth is open wide
But your body is too sore
But you are not the only one baby
Check me out
But my performance is good
My performance is good
For your love for your love
My performance is good
As I perform for you
Another nervous breakdown
Well nobody has to suffer
The camera ejects from another location
Take refuge in the city
Then move on down the line
Between the cradle of stations
But you are not the only one
