It's starin right back at me larger than life
Clear as a bell, sharp like a knife
Dreams and visions collide into shape
It was here that I made my lucky escape
All you can hope for when you toss your last card
Is somebody ain't judgin you too hard
The dance is over the debt has been paid
I'll spend no more time in this cheap masquerade
So drown your yesterdays bury your fears
I throw you a kiss with carnival tears
All you can pray for when they're changin the guard
If somebody ain't judgin you too hard
Don't judge me too hard
The sky was on fire
There were stars in my head
A message from heaven I suppose
Secrets unravel, fortunes are told
Her hair was the colour of a rose
A wild, wild rose
It's starin back at me larger than life
Clear as a bell, sharp like a knife
So drown your tomorrows and bury your fears
I wish you all luck with carnival tears
All you can wish for on this bent boulevard
Is somebody ain't judgin you too hard
Don't judge me too hard
