Pomp And Circumstances Lyrics - Zeitgeist - Smashing Pumpkins

Pomp And Circumstances 

When I was born I lost 

When I was freed I fought 

Now that I'm loved I'm caught 

Between the rest and this tragic mess 

An invited guest 

Torn, broken and frayed 

Oh don't we face 

War, sunshine and grace 

Oh won't you stay 

For a while 

We can fail in style 

I can hold your smile 

For a while

What was once new now gone 

What was once praised now wrong 

As they go, we can say we know 

But what do we know 

But warm sunshine and graves 

Don't we see 

What's bitter to taste 

Torn, broken and frayed 

Don't we face 

War, sunshine and graves 

Won't you stay 

Photos 

'Cause I won't tell 

I won't tell a soul 

That I'm mad as hell 

Torn, broken and frayed 

I'm torn, broken and frayed 

No, I'm cold, worn out and shamed
