The Grinning Man
I Am The Freak Show
GRINPAYNE
I’m the stuff of your nightmares
Was I born of unspeakable monsters?
I’m the shadow who walks in the night
And I strip all the stars from the sky
Who am I?

I’m the source of your fears
I’m the whisper of doubt in your ears
I’m the smile cut into the moon
I’m the single black note in the tune

Wipe the tears you cry
Your pity I despise

I am the freak show
I am the freak show
Watch me smile

Take a knife to your heart
Find the place where your agony starts
Bring it quivering into the light
And then hurl it out into the night

Wipe the tears you cry
Your pity I despise
