Lyrics
I see your face in every place I'll be goin' I read your words like black hungry birds read every sowin' Spin and call, throw the ball, my name is a Carnival Sad music in the night sings a scream of light out of chorus Voices you might hear appear and disappear in the forest Short and tall, goin' throw the ball, my name is a Carnival Strings of yellow tears drip from black-wired fears in the meadow Their white halos spin with an anger that is thin and turns to sorrow King of all, hear my call, yes is Carnival Here there is no law but the arcade's penny claw, hanging empty The painted laughing smile, the turning of the style do not envy Where the small can steal the ball, to touch the face of a Carnival The fat lady frowns at screaming frightened clowns that stand enchanted And the shadow lie and waits outside your iron gates with one wish granted Colors all, come throw the ball, my name is a Carnival Without a thought of size, you come to hypnotize the danger In a world that comes apart there is no single heart when life is stranger Wheel and call, clawed dreams all, in the name of a Carnival Yeah, wheel and call, spin and call, my name oh it's Carnival
