carnival of lights

it comes around once a year

absorbing all your wasted tears

i never thought this time would come

where your heartbeats as loud as a drum

it's the carnival that everyone talks about

never leaving anyone out

where kids go missing

and the parents are kissing

it's a sight for sore eyes

may lose your life on a ride

it's the carnival of lights

where your soul is up for a fright

it sure gets spooky out there

make sure you keep your persons near

this place will surely make you feel unsafe

leave your dignity at the gate

it's a sight for sore eyes

may lose your life on a ride

it's the carnival of lights

where your soul is up for a fright

this place may be cursed

and your lips will be pursed

you won't know whether to scream or cry

poets come here to unwind

it's a sight for sore eyes

may lose your life on a ride

it's the carnival of lights

where your soul is up for a fright
