Lost in a sea of amusement
They walk without a worry in the world
Happy faces hiding what's behind them
No peace at all for this poor boy and girl

Heads in the sky, cotton candy high
Distracted from destruction and the demons in their minds
Stuck on this ride, chains are fastened tight
Smiling while they're spiraling down this wicked web of lies

Walking through this carnival
I see through it all, two lovers 'bout to fall
Apart, it seems their hearts are full
But you'd never know, they're just two sorry souls

Focus on the prize and not the problems
Tryna leave behind their trail of tears
Just one night away from all the drama
Savor solace till it disappears

Heads in the sky, cotton candy high
Distracted from destruction and the demons in their minds
Stuck on this ride, chains are fastened tight
Smiling while they're spiraling down this wicked web of lies

Walking through this carnival
I see through it all, two lovers 'bout to fall
Apart, it seems their hearts are full
But you'd never know, they're just two sorry souls

I'll be over here wishing them the best
But we all know they're never gonna last
Walking through this carnival
I see through it all, two lovers 'bout to fall apart

Round and round this carousel for miles
Taste of burnt popcorn lingers in their mouths
Can't escape this never-ending cycle
Wait and watch it all burn down

Walking through this carnival
I see through it all, two lovers 'bout to fall
Apart, it seems their hearts are full
But you'd never know, they're just two sorry souls

I'll be over here wishing them the best
But we all know they're never gonna last
Walking through this carnival
I see through it all, two lovers 'bout to fall apart
