Letra de ' Circus ' de Tristania

Tied up and gagged
Hooded and tagged
They're all yours to command

I am corpse, I am carrion prey
I have a crow at each brow
Plucking eyes in my mask of death
The darkness is complete

Who's the hooded one, mother mine?
Who is gagged when all are silent?
(And bitten when we move)

Inflamed, my mask is burning
The night is dead, dark
Putrid flesh turning
Upon a chair in the dying corner
I am your bagful of fear
I'll commit, I'll admit I'll be the dagger
Drive me in
I'll be all motionless and still
My river runs within, still and deep

I am beast, I am carrion prey
To the Cyclops tribe
String me up to a cherry tree
Come one, come all
(And hang with me I'm already hogtied
Entangled in your marionette strings)

I am dancing, the embodiment of fear
A shake for every fearful tear
A ruckus for the righteous
In the end they no longer know
(Cast stones into mirrors onto themselves)

Mother mine, stab yourself, mother mine
Bleed your own river, dark and wide
Mine runs within, still and deep
(Don't shake me so, it will overflow)
