The Clown Lyrics

Open your mind to the night
let it all in, then we'll begin
give me your hand for a while
i'll take you in style, and show you the world
i don't lie... all the time

if i give you a dose, will you come back for me?
who cares if they know, they'll just think it's a dream
a beautiful day for sin, it's the best way to live
you can call me your clown, i'll bring you straight down.

i'll tell you that it's alright
i'll tell you all night, i'll tell you all night
don't stop now, it's just a way
a way that we play, and it's always such a good time
i don't lie

if i give you a dose, will you come back for me?
who cares if they know, they'll just think it's a dream
a beautiful day for sin, it's the best way to live
you can call me your clown, i'll bring you straight down

for a while
ill bring you straight down
but in style
it's all in your mind, it's all in your mind, it's all in your mind
and i'll walk you right out that door
i'll walk you right out that door

if i give you a dose, will you come back for me?
who cares if they know, they'll just think it's a dream
a beautiful day for sin, it's the best way to live
you can call me your clown, and i'll bring you all down

call me your clown, and i'll bring you straight down
call me your clown

thank you very much

Cover art for The Clown lyrics by Elefant

I'm fairly certain that the song revolves around one person pulling another into a relationship, that's operating a lot like a drug addiction. They want the other person to need them, they thrive on it, and they know they can manipulate the other into that situation, and keep them there, and the manipulator is almost taking pride of what they're doing.

Or it's just about drugs, what song isn't at this point?
