lyrics

Grumpy clown Black Lining 2018

I am falling in myself
When everybody‘s there
I just wanna be well-known
I couldn’t save the day
I always have delay
everything makes me feel unknown

I'm going to clown,
the best in downtown
'cause you know I am a funny bastard
maybe it's because I drink too much
or maybe it's because unhappiness fills me

It's all this loneliness that never goes away
I hate so much to be alone
It's 'cause I'm passionless
or that rare cigarette or maybe that pill from off the floor?

and I wanna know what is the shame for
if it always comes to me when it is too late?
I also need to know why is the time so short?
all the good times fly like arrows killing our deepest shadows

Im going to clown, the best in downtown
'cause you know I am a funny bastard
maybe it's because I drink too much
or maybe it's because unhappiness fills me

Everytime that I remember
All get mixed inside my head
everytime I look around me
life opens up a hole in myself
digging up so deep that I say:

I'm going to clown,
the best in downtown
'cause you know I am a funny bastard
maybe it's because I drink too much
or maybe it's because unhappiness fills me
