I. The Lights are off and curtain closed Orchestra pit now is a trap Wroth clown wipes off his make up Devasted jester pulls off cap. Walls of cursed circus we called home Now covered with ashes and dust We roam the ruins of broken dreams And all our hopes’re left in past. [Chorus] The silence speaks of what was lost In pages now forever crossed Yet in the stillness we can hear The echoes of what’s held so dear II. And as the sun begins to rise We leave this place of bitter end With tears in eyes, with heavy sighs Our story here must now descend. The old must fall to make us grow To clear the space for brand new dawn In every end, a seed we sow For future that will soon be drawn [Chorus] The silence speaks of what was lost In pages now forever crossed Yet in the stillness we can hear The echoes of what’s held so dear III. The final act has come to pass The story’s written in the sand But from the ashes, new life starts Like phoenix rising from the land [Chorus] The silence speaks of what was lost In pages now forever crossed Yet in the stillness we can hear The echoes of what’s held so dear
