By Alus Shadow

Come one, come all.

Sell your soul and heed the call.

Have everything you ever wanted,

Your ambitions are undaunted.

Give us everything you ever had,

And we'll leave you feeling bad.

Stay here and hide.

We'll give you a hell in which to abide.

Bring to life your dreams and desires,

Live, be merry, then burn in the fire.

Everything's yours, there is no cost.

You just have to live alone and lost.

[CHORUS]

Come and follow the carnival,

Every step could make you fall.

Come and follow our road of snares,

You will trip but no one cares.

You'll be a pawn, you'll be bound.

You'll get lost and won't be found.

You'll be nothing more then a tool,

But come and follow our carnival of fools.

[VERSE 2]

We'll put you on stage, parade you around.

Then crush your heart and tear you down.

Come see the jesters and demons,

The devil and his clowns.

We're all here for your entertainment,

We won't crush your dreams, just break them.

Kiss the sky, then hit the ground.

Scream in fear and make no sound.

Everythings better, everythings bigger.

'Cause everythings a shadow of some vague figure.

Be on time, don't be late.

Come see the shows of greed, lust and hate.

[CHORUS]

Come and follow the carnival,

Every step could make you fall.

Come and follow our road of snares,

You will trip but no one cares.

You'll be a pawn, you'll be bound.

You'll get lost and won't be found.

You'll be nothing more then a tool,
