Lyrics
| This is a requiem for the harlequin
The great pretender crashing down with style Here’s to the fall of man, fame to dust fortune to sand The great surrender, finally arrived This is how the requiem loves the harlequin Wake up your chains are porcelain Like a phoenix from the ashes we will rise again This is what the requiem loves to hear you sing To the beat of your fool heart hammering One more time we’ll cry into the night again Oh yeah This is a requiem for the comedian The one who used to deftly dodge in time You cut a sparkling gem, never heeding the warning Of the silver glint of knives in hungry eyes This is how the requiem loves the harlequin… So how does it feel now? Tell me, can you let it go? The wrong you can’t undo This is how the requiem loves the harlequin Breaking up this heart of porcelain From the ashes we will rise again This is what the requiem loves to hear you sing .. |
