Unfairground

It catches fire at midnight
 It leaves the room for doubt
 But every thing's so well defined
 There's only one way out
 And all the girls are on tonight
 The colored wheels all spin
 You're more aware than ever before
 You need a prize to win
 And all the funfair's will have one
 That is the usual theme
 No secret Jack in this box
 To help the pain within
 Quiet country roads and trees
 Birds singing from a cage
 You understand you just lost one
 You step outside your rage
 And what's left to believe in
 The children in the lake?
 I didn't see them go under
 Let's try another take
 Pass me the bottle, baby
 One day you'll understand
 We almost make the same mistakes
 And hold each other's hands
 Take this particular shade of gray
 Just for a change I shout
 There's nothing in this fairground
 That couldn't be left out
 There isn't much left to show you
 Maybe the tunnel of love
 Who knows we'll be there forever
 Just like the stars above
