Lyrics

You wake up in the morning
And you have to wonder why
Why things are the way they are
And why people have to lie
They’ll tell you that it’s over
When the show has just began
They’ll give you the knife that cuts you
But they won’t tell no one
So when your back’s against the wall
Just look them in the eye
Tell them you won’t take the fall
No your not gonna die

The show it must go on
Like the night must break to dawn
The show it must go on
Down the line and through your life

Would you follow me into the night?
Would you trust me with your life?

You go to see you preacher
And he gives you his big line
Reading word for word
His contradicting rhyme
And eye for an eye
And never tell a lie
Oh and turn the other cheek now
Until I run and hide
Well my god never said those words
And an atheist I’m not
God loves me for how I am
Not what I say or do

The show it must go on
Like the night must break to dawn
The show it must go on
Down the line and through your life

Would you follow me into the night?
Would you trust me with your life?

The show it must go on
Like the night must break to dawn
The show it must go on
Down the line and through your life

Would you follow me into the night? Would you trust me with your life?
