The Gladiator Songtext
von Goodbye Tobey

Crawl across the floorboards
Hide under the sheets
Take apart the pieces
′Til you know what's underneath
But I′m not all that different
When I get cut, I bleed
And lately all I see

Is the gladiator, oh
The hero with his head cut off
So I couldn't see you screaming out

But if I'm speaking honestly
The ego death has never been that far for me
I feel you near
As soon as it gets hard to breathe
I cast aside my sword, my shield, my armory
And everything that I have
And everything that I


I′ll stop here for a moment
I′ll take the time to see
A wild creature bearing
Silver claws and knashing teeth
You look so unfamiliar
But you've been here all this time
And hopefully, we can make peace
As long as I survive

And the gladiator, oh
The hero with his head cut off
So I couldn′t see you screaming out

But if I'm speaking honestly
The ego death has never been that far for me
I feel you near
As soon as it gets hard to breathe
I cast aside my sword, my shield, my armory
And everything that I have
And everything that I
