The Show Must Go On

Empty spaces, what are we living for?
Abandoned places... I guess we know the score
On and on- does anybody know what we are living for?
Another hero. Another mindless crime
Behind the curtain in the pantomime
Hold the line!
Does anybody want to take it anymore?
The Show must go on

Put on your makeup
It's time that you wake up
The people they pay to see your display
Though you may be crying cause your man has been lying
Laugh through your sighing there is no other way
Those tears that fall become your own swan song
Though years may call, all you do is just play along
So, laugh through your sadness
Turn your pain into gladness
Laugh for your art although love poisons your heart
Laugh through your sobbing
Hear the audience applauding
Laugh through the dawn - you know the show must go on

So, laugh through your sadness
Turn your pain into gladness
Laugh for your art although love poisons your heart
Laugh through your sobbing
Hear the audience applauding
Laugh through the dawn - the show must go on
