Live on Broadway Songtext
von The Last Ten Seconds of Life

Face to face with the truth
Only suffering can change me
One last breath from the bottom
Who′ll be in line to save me?

Face to face with the truth
On this night I will break free
One last breath from the bottom
Who's extending their hand?
Who is reaching for me?
Face to face with the truth
Only suffering can change me
One last breath from the bottom
Who′ll be in line to save me?

Don't say a word just wait for the white light
You have to give them what they want
A pound of flesh that was never lent
Everyone, take your seat
The show is about to begin

(Please take your seat, the show is about to begin)


Stare down with death
A broken back and a voice in my head
Barking commands forcing my hand
They got me grinding my teeth
Until they fall out at my feet
Welcome the world to who I am
Cursed from birth with my heart in my hands

Pull the curtain back
Let them see what they paid for
A man that is done for
Eyes afire while licking their teeth
Tonight I am the feast
I was born with a heart too big
And a soul that is not for sale
In this putrid world something so rare

One man freak show
Come one, come all

Face to face with the truth
Only suffering can change me
One last breath from the bottom
Who'll be in line to save me?

Pound of flesh
