Circus Lyrics

time to pay
let them burn
punish and erase me
high time i suffer
count all my addictions
that surprise erection
that dirty obsession
my blood is on your hands
blood is on your hands
turn away from me, turn away
take everything away from me
you can still hear me laughing at you
this soul cannot be chained
can i get a witness
here i am
so what, here i stand
see you when i get there
rok hard dik in my hand
no, i don't expect you to understand shit
in the garden of heathens
we fuck confession
let the motherfucker fall
i watch him fall hard
turn away from me, turn away
cut me in half and play with me
now, both of me are laughing at you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm not positive here, but I think he is mocking religion for not accepting things that people do. The addictions and erections and obsessions...he's basically saying fuck ya! I'm living the way I want and if you "cut me in half...both of me are laughing at you!"

maybe it should be "cut me in half and PRAY with me" which would support the religion theory.
