She stands like a clarion call for disaster

Never stays for the break of a beautiful mind

And there's no one home

And no way to know what it takes to ever outlast her

She sings with the Sirens' song of distraction

Never plays it safe, never asks for time

And she's all her own

And everything you think you know is just another abstraction

And I can't see a thing in the sunshine

But I don't want to close my eyes

Spent my whole life running around

Like a carousel horse just nowhere bound

And I don't see this ride slowing down

And I can't touch the ground

No I can't touch the ground

She schemes Rabelaisian dreams to perfection

Never claims the blame, crossing over the line

And there's no one home

And anything that nobody knows becomes another obsession

And I can't see a thing in the sunshine

But I don't want to close my eyes

Spent my whole life running around

Like a carousel horse just nowhere bound

And I don't see this ride slowing down

And I can't touch the ground

No I can't touch the ground
