lyrics

End of the night
No regretting
Sleepless in someone else’s bed
You’re just on loan
You keep pretending
You’re leasing out a piece of hell or heaven
The night is long
Not as long as my reach
Reach right around pull out the dawn and repeat
The same tired tracks in the same tired mind
One that don’t tire out from reading between the lines

Just another passenger on this carnival ride
The ebb and flow of carousels continuously raising the price

The day is short
Not as short as my leash
To where I am bound I would rather not see
Look in between
Whatchu’ expecting to find?
Something called you or just a waste of my time

Just another passenger on this carnival ride
The ebb and flow of carousels continuously raising the price

End of the night
No regretting
Sleepless in someone else’s bed
You’re just on loan
You keep pretending
You’re leasing out a piece of hell or heaven

Just another passenger on this carnival ride
The ebb and flow of carousels continuously raising the price
Just another passenger on this carnival ride
The ebb and flow of carousels continuously raising the price

The night is long
Not as long as my reach
Reach right around pull out the dawn and repeat
Look in between
Whatchu’ expecting to find
Something called you or just a waste of my time
