INTRO
Aim your spotlights at me as I walk up your stage
Into your maze now that's my cage
The stairs are narrow, slippery and steep
But I can't do anything, I'm bound for the trip
My lips are red but underneath it's violet
My face is painted but underneath it is pale
I'm dying but I'm not for sale
I'm dying but I'm not for sale
INTERLUDE
You won't see me murmur or hear me f***** frown
I'm the groom but I shall wear your f***** gown
Shall pretend to be what you want me to be
I'm so good at that for you f***** proudly taught me
Behind my shadow's curtains I'll hide my fears
Behind my shadow's curtains I'll hide my tears
Helpless fool in your stage of despair
The guilt you have, you want me to bear
CHORUS
Shout at me
Curse at me
Clap for me
Applaud me
Boo me
Then laugh at me
Love me
Hate me
BRIDGE
Before you, I'll stand naked
I'll make you smile, I'll make you laugh
I'll take your burden away, put it on my back
I'll ease your pain and stop your rain
I'll tickle you with my words, your sadness I'll drain
[Repeat CHORUS]
Aim your spotlights at me as I go down your stage
Into your maze, now that is my cage
The stairs are narrow, slippery and steep
But I can't do anything, I'm bound for the trip
My lips are red but underneath it is violet
My face is painted but underneath it is pale
I'm dying but I'm not for sale
I'm dying but I'm not for sale
[Repeat CHORUS]
