[Verse 1]
The curtains drops, lights switched on
He stands in front a starving mob
From head to toe, ready to go
A brooding man, forced laughter
Make-up and lipstick covers up
The most insane unshed tear remains

[Pre-Chorus]
Carried a curse in his heart for years
Will it ever let him go?
There the cryin' reveals his dumb show

[Chorus]
He lost control in this massive undertow
He grins and bears it, a creeping vertigo
Congeals his laughter
If he’d ever known he wouldn't have played this game

[Verse 1]
Betrayed himself in fancy
Everlasting stigma cuz for once
There is an answer left behind the jokers face
"Irony's misunderstood when you are only listening"
Bad mood backfires on you
[Chorus]
He lost control in this massive undertow
He grins and bears it, a creeping vertigo
Congeals his laughter
If he’d ever known he wouldn't have played this game

[Post-Chorus]
This damn game
What a shame
Keep his hands off
Keep his hand off this damn game

[Pre-Chorus]
Climax, sensation mongering, lechery, they choke on coke
The big gun blows him across the crowd

[Chorus]
He lost control in this massive undertow
He grins and bears it, a creeping vertigo
Congeals his laughter
If he'd ever known
If he'd ever known he wouldn't have played this game

[Outro]
He better let it go
He better let it go
