red giant

i play the clown for you

entertaining

absurd hue

and i watch them laugh

i'd love to

see them clap and dance to my tune

blowing up like a red giant

expansive

a star

and i'm coming to burn this down and laugh my ass off

all my children sing it again and again

'cause a lie ain't a lie if you're winnin' 'em over

amen

i act on stage up here

toying with your own fears

misdirection i'm so near

simple sleight of hand

in the clear

blowing up like a red giant

expansive

a star

and i'm coming to burn this down and laugh my ass off

all my children sing it again and again

'cause a lie ain't a lie if you're winnin' 'em over

amen

too late now

show's over

real life is much closer

take the makeup off

you wonder

why i look the same

only bolder

blowing up like a red giant

expansive

a star

and i'm coming to burn this down and laugh my ass off

all my children sing it again and again

'cause a lie ain't a lie if you're winnin' 'em over

amen

all my children sing it again and again

'cause a lie ain't a lie if you're winnin' 'em over

amen
