Gutter Ballet - Savatage

Another sleepless night

A concrete paradise

Sirens screaming in the heat

Neon cuts the eye

As the jester sighs

At the world beneath his feet

It’s a gutter ballet

Just a menagerie

Still the orchestra plays

On a dark and lonely night

To a distant fading light

Balanced on their knives

Little parts of lives

Such a strange reality

Kill the unicorn

Just to have its horn

Soon he’s just a fantasy

It’s a gutter ballet

Just a menagerie

Still the orchestra plays

On a dark and lonely night

To a distant fading light

The jester takes his bows

Slips into the crowd

As the actors fade away

Another death to mourn

Another child is born

Another chapter in the play

It’s a gutter ballet

Just a menagerie

Still the orchestra plays

On a dark and lonely night

To a distant fading light
