Carnival of Fools

[Verse 1]
Terrible day when you walked out on me
I didn't know what to say
I didn't know who to be
The words were gone, no emotion would come
I was deaf, I was dumb
I was blind all along

[Chorus 1]
"I just want to see you
I don't want to leave you"
Carnivals of fools!

[Verse 2]
We took a chance and we gambled with fate
Tried on each other's skins
We just couldn't wait
The game was fixed, it was hexed from the start
You were burning with light
I was shot in the dark

[Chorus 2]
"All those stupid lovers
Drowning with each other
'Til they find another"
At the carnivals of fools!

[Bridge]
We lose ourselves in another soul
Hungry for the dreams they hold
You set me free from the ghost in me
You set me free
You set me free

[Verse 3]
Now that you say it, I was obsessed with myself
I was obsessed with myself
I couldn't see no one else
The sky was green and the buildings were blue
There was a glow around you
There always was around you

[Chorus 3]
"Vanity will blind you
Trouble always find you
Disaster's right behind you"
At the carnivals of fools!
