Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A carnival beating heart and a means of escape
Ride the rail, jump the track, go to sleep wide awake
This wish automatic
[Instrumental]
Soar with me for awhile, sweep the crumbs from the trail
Want to go faster, yeah, Lord, I do, do not fail
This wish automatic
[Refrain]
This wish automatic
This wish automatic
[Instrumental]
You will beat yourself at these games
But step right this way, my friend
This is what it's all built to do
It's no reflection on you
[Chorus]
There are way too many eyes on the prize
There are way too many eyes on the prize
[Verse 2]
Oh, your heart is in the right place
Picking the shortest line always
You should not write off these gifts
You got to shine your light somewhere
[Chorus]
There are way too many eyes on the prize
There are way too many eyes on the prize
[Instrumental]
Wait till all the crowds have died down
It's easier to win that way
Though the funhouse has stretched you thin
It's no reflection on you
[Chorus]
There are way too many eyes on the prize
There are way too many eyes on the prize
[PostChorus]
On the prize
On the prize
On the prize
[Instrumental]
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Tell me when you find your way out
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Tell me when you find your way out
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Tell me when you find your way out
[Instrumental]
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Tell me when you find your way out
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Meet me in the mirror maze, tell me when you find the floor
Tell me when you find your way out
