lyrics
Last night I went to Manderley
To lose my mind inside a storm
I always choose a bitter story
Praising Greene and reading Maugham
And I knew that it was reckless
Running off the way I did
Always chasing big ideas, I was
The ever optimistic kid
You’ve got to pay a price you know
For feeling so damn good
But today I am a conqueror
I see the world from way up high
And my dreams are dancing for me
Like swallows across the sky
But You call the battle vulgar
That game they play with ease
You never did like that hustle no
The awful clamour just to be seen
So tell it like a story friend
Until you make it make some sense
Coz life is like a carnival
A race to pay the rent
Your far to sensitive my boy
And I know you care too much
Your life is like an unsung song
A chorus begging to be heard
But if you don’t dare to raise your voice
We’ll never catch a word
And if you don’t dare raise your voice
We’ll never catch a word
So I laid my life before me
From books and pretty films
I’m a sucker for the romance
The anticipation and the thrills
All while my gall was wreaking havoc
Around the weakness of my will
And the school of dedication
Was left praying for its fill
So I got my shit together man
Planted seeds in fertile ground
And I told it like a story friend
Until I made it make some sense
And life once like a carnival
Now chance for transcendence
Oh life I’ve had my carnival
Now take my sweet lament
