What a Shame

With a heavy heart and a black mark on my soul

This burden's a bastard that we have all known

In a world without heroes just abandoned thrones

All is gone, all is gone

While gangs of the ignorant extol their intolerance

Sweeping the streets while preaching their nonsense

Your soul is on fire, your world is in flames

What a shame, what a shame

To behold this act's getting old

Pack up the tents and send the circus home

Move it on down the line, a catastrophic pantomime

The last to know, the first in line time after time

Life in a pile of ashes

Plight of the vile and disastrous

While gangs of the ignorant extol their intolerance

Sweeping the streets while preaching their nonsense

Your soul is on fire, your world is in flames

What a shame, what a shame

To behold this act's getting old

Pack up the tents and send the circus home

Move it on down the line, a catastrophic pantomime

The last to know, the first in line time after time

Life in a pile of ashes

Plight of the vile and disastrous

While you're praying for a savior

Anticipating, awaiting their failure

Cross the t's and dot the i's

Another Christ to crucify

These filthy hands and guilty eyes

Blind concubine

With a heavy heart and a black mark on my soul

This burden's a bastard that we have all known

In a world without heroes just abandoned thrones

All is gone, all is gone

With a heavy heart and a black mark on my soul

This burden's a bastard that we have all known

In a world without heroes just abandoned thrones

All is gone, all is gone
