Freak Show
from Freak Show by Always the Quiet Ones
lyrics
Desire, courage and faith, against these odds
The alter of legend, the foot of departed gods
Desire, desire, a shield against despair
The terror of failure a burden we must bear.
We are the freak show.
Power, riches, and fame, the stranger's call
The echo of laurels, precursor to the fall
Desire, desire, a strange vocation
When trembling, this life seems a rare sensation
We are the freak show.
Desire, courage, the brutal truth of odds
The alter of failure, the death of all our gods
We are the freak show.
The alter of legend, the foot of departed gods
Desire, desire, a shield against despair
The terror of failure a burden we must bear.
We are the freak show.
Power, riches, and fame, the stranger's call
The echo of laurels, precursor to the fall
Desire, desire, a strange vocation
When trembling, this life seems a rare sensation
We are the freak show.
Desire, courage, the brutal truth of odds
The alter of failure, the death of all our gods
We are the freak show.

Always the Quiet Ones Liverpool
"Effortlessly swinging between Oceansize- esque progressive rock, Butterfly Effect-like epic alt rock or simply fuzzy Smashing Pumpkins riffing the band are close to unstoppable. Live, they are a multi-headed monster of rock, drawing sizable crowds across the Northwest and, soon, the country. Check them out now while they are playing to a hundred people rather than a thousand." --HIGH VOLTAGE ... more
