Lyrics

Cry your eyes out
You can try hard to live without
It'd be so much better if you'd never met her
Her face is like a cloud

Pour your life out
You can kill what you cannot live without
And you found a lever that could change forever
But your hands can't help you now

So clean up all the powder
And cry a little louder
Cause she don't want nobody else
And she ain't got no reason now to keep you for herself

So come ride around on my ferris wheel
So come ride around on my ferris wheel

Cause it's not like we were in love
And it's not like this was something I wanted
And it's clear when push came to shove
That my love was dust and that's what I'm made of

So come ride around on my ferris wheel
So come ride around on my ferris wheel

So breathe in all the power
And crucify the powder
You broke the walls of Jericho
And all the nightmares of a life you'll never know

So come ride around on my ferris wheel
So come ride around on my ferris wheel
