[Intro]Step right up, the gears are grinding.Teeth of iron, no more hiding.Lights go dark, the crowd is screaming.Welcome to the machine's dreaming.
[Verse]Ringmaster's whip cracks like a piston.Every scream feeds the system.Painted smiles hide the static.Bones and wires, automatic.Clockwork skulls spin round the tent.Every soul here gets bent.The carnival never stops turning.Watch the wheel, feel it burning.
[Chorus]We are the gears that never sleep!We are the teeth, we chew and reap!Run the machine, break every bone!This circus is our only home!
[Verse]Barker's voice cuts through the static.Every act gets more dramatic.Puppet strings pulled by pistons.No escape from this rendition.Mirrors crack, reflect the fury.Judge, jury, no more mercy.The freak show feeds on your fear now.Bow before the iron crown now.
[Chorus]We are the gears that never sleep!We are the teeth, we chew and reap!Run the machine, break every bone!This circus is our only home!
[Bridge]Tear it down, tear it down!Break the strings, wear the crown!Every scream, every chain!Feeds the beast, fuels the pain!
[Chorus]We are the gears that never sleep!We are the teeth, we chew and reap!Run the machine, break every bone!This circus is our only home!
