A visitor to a self-imposed solitaryconfinement
Wrapped in a cloud that won't dissipate
An opportunist, a carnival barkerwithout a good story to sell
Trying out for the freak show, I camein prepared
Signatures, scrawled and muddled signeda fate
It was business, just business
Standard contract for a single show
Measurements taken, approved andprecise
Running through a rehearsal for analready canceled act
This must earn more than a convolutedstory
It must be worth its weight in backlashfor the unconventional
Not long until stakes are pulled,trailers packed
Never given the chance to open my eyes
