1-verse:
--------------------
Time loves a hero
everybody hopes it's a
mirror image
did you get the news
from across the river?
Someone say a prayer
for the prince of fools
what's it gonna mean in
the final hour
what's it gonna be when
the bell ringers' tower
comes tumbling down
Bridge 1 :
---------------------
Never a moment of
kindness
only the laughter
only the anger
under the big top
it's a beggar's world
but it's real
the holy sidewalks
are now the highways
that home to the
sinners and thieves
beware the eyes of the
beholder
watch out!
watch out!
look over your
shoulder!
2-verse:
--------------------
Living like a story of
a gypsy princess
looking like an angel
in rest
learning we will try to
resist
it can't be done
someone put the chains
on the dancer
like a way break a
spirit
hey how a shame in
salvation
the wages of sin
woe to the unholy
masses
watch out!
ye children of Egypt
inside the palace
it's the dealer's game
you got to play
there is no justice
only hangmen
who patiently wait
beware the eyes of the
beholder
watch out!
watch out!
look over your
shoulder!
instrumental, with some

3-verse
------------------------------
You may have a beast
looking in forever
truly the age of a mask
hiding and dying for love
what you fighting to ask?
still there may be a hero
set up for the fate
sure as death
chances are that only
the light of the moment
that lasts

Bridge:
------------------
just drag the curtain
all that you need is a
personal ending
it's only fiction
but it's an age old
well known sold-out show
just take your chances
lay down your hopes on
a vanishing line
and roll aboard!
watch out!
look over your
shoulder!
beauty is in the eye of
the beholder
watch out!
watch out!
look over your
shoulder!
Solo trumpets with sordina
