A Theatre Disease by Golden Ego

The Circus Act

This set of songs is my attempt at a concept piece.

When writing the songs, I had a pop starlet in mind... Britney Spears & the like. Actually, old Britney was probably the main inspiration. Not musically, of course, but more of the damage that comes with fame and what the world at large is subjected to.

Kind of took me a while to flesh them all out like they are and I would have preferred to release more songs all together, but I kept getting a sense of completion after the last song was finished.

We'll see.

A Theatre Disease
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

waiting for
the fullfillment the fame made poor
opened doors slammed in your
face again
hanger-ons 'til the end
sycophants scream and dance
the party starts
right when the lights go dark
your eyes go far
distant star
children scream
old and young inbetween
reality & a dream

waiting for the starlet to sing
sick with a theatre disease

children scream
old and young inbetween
reality & TV

waiting for the starlet to sing
sick with a theatre disease
