wearing a greasepaint smile
performing magic for the masses
makes a tiger disappear
only he can see the heart of his act
illuminated by stage lights
surrounded by adoring crowds
he stands alone in the darkness
feeling love from no one
wishing it were an illusion

    grease paint's so hard to get off...
    It's all yellow.
