Center Stage (Live) lyrics

[Verse 1]
Laughing in a crown of jewels
Numbness from a scepter's wound
Toss and turn, I, I spin and learn
"Catch yourself before you burn"
Jokers dance before the king
Jangling beads and silver rings
Close your eyes and bare the sound
Of jumping up, falling down

[Chorus]
Falling, falling, falling, falling down
Look yourself in the eye before you drown

[Verse 2]
Royal rebels discover you
Trust? You turn there is no truth
And circle, circle, why are you scared?
Why a smile instead of a tear?
'Cause I'm gulping smoke to fade away
Figures floating down to lay
I meet the joker and the thief
The king and queen but no relief

[Chorus]
Falling, falling, falling, falling down
(King is in his counting house counting out his money)
Look yourself in the eye before you drown
(The queen is in her parlor eating bread and honey)
Falling, falling, falling, falling down
(King is in his counting house counting out his money)
Look yourself in the eye before you drown
(The queen is in her parlor eating bread and honey)
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
I cross myself, I'm gonna die
And the leaping man, he asks me, "Why?"
"Well, your rhythm is off," I reply
"Now we all dance the dance we imply"

[Outro]
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
Your actions will follow you full circle round
(Round, round and around and around)
Your actions will follow you full circle round
(And around and around and around)
"The higher the leap," I said
"The harder the ground!"

Thanks y'all. Thanks.
