The Brave / Agony Applause by Deadlock Lyrics

[Intro: Sabine Scherer (silently)]
It is time to go, march us prisoners off

[Chorus: Scherer]
I accept the agony applause
Brave as I am
An insane dance at the brink of death
In your circus of the obscene

[Verse 1: Johannes Prem, Scherer]
Far away from my home, caged behind rusty bars
Beaten and mortified
Your shouting and cheering would forever fall silent
You would be ashamed of clapping your hands

[Chorus: Scherer]
I accept the agony applause
Brave as I am
An insane dance at the brink of death
In your circus of the obscene
[Verse 2: Johannes Prem, Scherer]
Dear spectators I'm coming from the boondocks
To your wilderness of mirrors
Pretending to be dangerous and unpredictable
But look into my eyes
And all you will see is frustration and fear
Disappointment about man creation's crowning glory

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge: Scherer]
But now it's time to go
March us prisoners off, let our agony entertain you

[Chorus: Scherer]
I accept the agony applause
Brave as I am
An insane dance at the brink of death
In your circus of the obscene
I accept the agony applause
Brave as I am
An insane dance at the brink of death
In your circus of the obscene
