The Show Must Slay On!

Rewrite of Queen's The Show Must Go On

 

Inspired by a recent horror film I viewed.

 

Enjoy!

 

Empty nightmarish faces

What do they come haunting for?

Abandoned places

Dead bodies by the score

On and on

Does nobody know what they are killing for?

Call him just another zero

Accused of another mindless crime

Behind the cruelest intention

Always pushed aside

Makes sanity cross that darker line

They don't know it yet

But soon he's not gonna take it anymore

 

Chorus

 

The show must slay on

The show must slay on, Hell yeah

Inside his sanity is fading

The make-up of what could have been fading

But that killer smile stays on

 

Whatever happens

You best not cross him

You won't stand a chance

Another heartache

Another failure at romance

On and on

The disappointments have all left him wondering

What is living even for?

Soon I guess you'll be next to go missing

Do you feel it growing colder now?

Soon he'll be turning round that corner now

Inside his mind is breaking

For deep inside the dark

A demon aches to be free

 

Chorus

 

His soul is poisoned like the wings on broken butterflies

Fairy tales of yesterday

Only decay

As his every dream does die

Soon on demon wings he will fly

Hunting down

All once called friends

Who did in time betray

 

Spoken Line Here=

 

For it is always true.....

 

The show must slay on

The show must slay on

He'll stab you with a gruesome grin

Pushing that blade deep in

On with this horror show!
