steven gilbert - ferris wheel lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’ve been crumbling it seems
searching for something
to curve the dark in my dreams

the man without a face beckoned me to ride
a creaky old ferris wheel where at the top i’d find
above all my failures and fears
i’m safe and satisfied
but, at the bottom i’ve forgotten
the cure has become my demise

[chorus]
the world it seems has a knack
for playing games when decks are stacked
brand me as you will
i’ll have another go on this ferris wheel

[verse 2]
i’ve been crumbling it seems
let me drown in my sorrow
i’ll fix my life tomorrow

but the man without a face
visits to remind
at the old ferris wheel there never is a line
“boy, you’ve grown tired of tears
it seems a perfect night
might as well enjoy yourself until the morning light”

[chorus]
but the world it seems has a knack
for bouncing whispers off my back
brand me as you will
got a seat saved for you on this ferris wheel

[bridge]
shall i rinse my mouth with the blood of my failures
as long as my pain is sip-able
for you i’ll stay invisible
the rumor mill’s not so frightening
if you start it yourself
press on me these scarlet letters and tell me what they spell

[verse 3]
i’ve been crumbling it seems
this liquid armor’s all i found

to silence my screaming dreams
the man without a face
says, “son do you mind
if i take the seat here next to you
on this old ride of mine”

no the ferris wheel’s not really real
come and go as you please
but how’s this sound
one more go ‘round
the next ride will be on me

[chorus]
the world it seems has a knack
for turning rumors into fact
i’m becoming what you say
the letters on my chest read: “d-r-u-n-k”
