the funnymans mask

based on the song-tears of a clown by Iron Maiden --------------------------------------------------------------------- afraid people will see your truth so you lived wearing a mask a mask to protect you from all the worlds judgements as you spun your crazy world you entered the masquerade you took a leap into the unknown to be the funny man the clown but this mask you wore also protected you from your created illusion and the paranoia hiding within all around they lit up your name outwardly was a glow but inwardly the whirlwind spun spinning inside the darkness dominating all bounds the black fog of frustration seeped into your soul torment spread its tentacles trapping you inside the cage of hell most fly into heaven but upon a demons wing you descended you mended hearts with laughter a real life Patch Adams
