Standing Ovation Lyrics
Get your ticket for a one of a kind
A performer that will blow your mind
Everybody please hold on for dear life
And welcome Eli
Are you ready for a night of delight
From every corner the red roses fly
Mesmerizing more than magic tonight!
We both know I'm the star
If I could only kiss her mistakes
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only relearn the pain
When I've been waiting she'll survive
But it's over, and you can't notice
Levitating over open wide eyed
Disappearing under big top lights (big top lights)
There's nobody that has ever seen my flawless design
Captivated by the misdirect I
Sold my soul in to be recognized
Every minute could be my time to die yeah!
We both know I'm the star
If I could only kiss her mistakes
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only relearn the pain
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only kiss her mistakes
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only relearn the pain
When I've been waiting she'll survive
But it's over, and you can't notice
And now, the moment you've all been waiting for!
All I want is a standing ovation to appease him now
(Appease him now)
Just a powerful manifestation could drag me down
(Could drag me down)
I'm a servant to a darker dimension better take a bow
(Better take a bow)
There's no escaping the term obligations
Guess I'm the clown
We fall in time
They medicate us sometimes
But the colours running black
We fall in time
They medicate us sometimes
But the colours lie
A performer that will blow your mind
Everybody please hold on for dear life
And welcome Eli
Are you ready for a night of delight
From every corner the red roses fly
Mesmerizing more than magic tonight!
If I could only kiss her mistakes
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only relearn the pain
When I've been waiting she'll survive
But it's over, and you can't notice
Disappearing under big top lights (big top lights)
There's nobody that has ever seen my flawless design
Captivated by the misdirect I
Sold my soul in to be recognized
Every minute could be my time to die yeah!
If I could only kiss her mistakes
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only relearn the pain
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only kiss her mistakes
When I've been waiting she'll survive
If I could only relearn the pain
When I've been waiting she'll survive
And now, the moment you've all been waiting for!
(Appease him now)
Just a powerful manifestation could drag me down
(Could drag me down)
I'm a servant to a darker dimension better take a bow
(Better take a bow)
There's no escaping the term obligations
Guess I'm the clown
They medicate us sometimes
But the colours running black
We fall in time
They medicate us sometimes
But the colours lie

Says the band Teramaze: "'Standing Ovation' sounds like a thrilling anthem, capturing the excitement and energy of Eli's journey to stardom. With its dynamic guitar riffs/solos and powerful vocal melodies, its a standout track within the story. It encapsulates the pivotal moment when Eli steps into the spotlight and commands the stage, earning the adoration of the crowd with his talent and charisma. It's the kind of song that leaves a lasting impression and perfectly complements Eli's rise to fame in the narrative." Commenting on the albums thematic direction they continued; “Eli - A Wonderful Fall from Grace" takes us to A Place Called Halo, the circus where it all began in the height of it's popularity. Eli, a shipwreck survivor discovers the travelling tented landscape, and becomes the star attraction... but at a terrible price.
