lyrics

A finite Masquerade that cannot be explained. A Fleeting cognizance of a baffling charade. Welcome one and all to the Cosmic Horror Show. Fear not for ghouls, or spirits, or the demon haunted worlds beyond. It’s a Cosmic Horror Show. Get this: the horror is reality. Welcome to the horror show. A backwater of human monsters that happened upon themselves breathing, conscious, thinking, feeling, being, seeking, and hiding in the dark. Terror, terror, horror and dread. The mystery of existence shipwrecked on our heads. Labor, toil, and work till we’re dead. We’re too afraid to live. Labor and toil. We’re too afraid to die.
Labor and toil and work till we’re dead. And in the end, there’s nothing left, the joke is on us, it’s meaningless. AH HA HA HA! It’s a Cosmic Horror Show. The human masquerade cannot be explained. We regret to inform you there is only one escape. It’s a Cosmic Horror Show. Get this: the horror is reality. Welcome to the horror show. Don’t you understand? The humans are the monsters killing, lying, making something, loving, dying, and laughing in the dark. AH HA HA HA!
It’s a Cosmic Horror Show. Can’t you hear the great masquerade of humanity? Can anybody hear us? Does anybody hear us out there in the dark?
