Nailed To The Ferris Wheel lyrics

[Intro]
Look how it turns around
Step on the fairground
Carts on the stainless steel
Go ride my Ferris wheel

[Verse]
Good evening ma'am, good evening sir
So glad you've come to me
Oh, may I ask, how’d I deserve
Oh, such a company?

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm glad that I have found
A pair of you around
I've been depressed, I've looked inside
And look what I have found
I'll build a piece of art
And you will be its part
I'm nailing you to a broken wheel
To fix my broken heart

[Chorus]
Screaming as it turns around
Bleeding on the fairground
Flesh on the stainless steel
Nailed to the Ferris wheel
[Verse]
The fair is closed, the circus - burned
Along with the trampoline
And who am I: a tortured soul
Or just a drama queen?

[Pre-Chorus]
My wheel is turning fast
I'm not going to last
And every minute of my life
Is tainted by my past
This symbol is displaying
A life that I had failed
I want to leave behind me something
Something that I've nailed

[Chorus]
Screaming as it turns around
Bleeding on the fairground
Flesh on the stainless steel
Nailed to the Ferris wheel

[Bridge]
Shattered my mind!
Left me behind!
Is your ringmaster
Dying tonight?
Listen to this!
The final piece!
Let your ringmaster
Finally die in peace...
[Interlude]
I want to make my dreams come true
And from this premise comes the rest
I tried so hard and failed hard
Doing my sincere best
To be a man I want to be
And knowing that I never will
The closest to a fair chance
Is spinning the sansara wheel

[Verse]
I wonder why, I wonder why
You beg to let you die
I wonder if, I wonder if
You do not want to live

[Pre-Chorus]
To hell with your opinions
It is the work of genius
A monument to a failed life
Is not for your convenience
I could just let you free
But I want you to see
That I will never die alone
I'm taking you with me
[Chorus]
Screaming as it turns around
Bleeding on the fairground
Flesh on the stainless steel
Nailed to the Ferris wheel
