Tables revolving. The world's spinning [music] out. Forever turning, dancing in the light. What a terrible night.
Speaker A
[music] I'm howling, there's no way I know. The world's spinning out. Forever blurring, dancing in the light.
Speaker A
[music] What a terrible night. I'm howling, there's no way. We're spinning out, we're spinning out, we're spinning out. Is reality a prison of its own? I'd rather be the jester standing [music] alone.
Speaker A
So much fun, so much fun, so much. The rules are common before the court, before the crown. I'm freer than a god, but now I hold on. Dark as the sky above. [music] It's being free from the light,
Speaker A
the true meaning of life. The green within the light [music] like it's never enough.
Speaker A
[singing] Heaven is shining bright, but hell will call your bluff. Rejoice in frenzy now, and laugh as time [music] has come for each and each of fun.
Speaker A
A festival of fun, a carnival of fun until you [music] fall down, until you lose your crown, until [music] you split apart.
Speaker A
Come find me in the dark. Spinning [music] the carousel of life down where you all fall.
Speaker A
Twisting the body [music] of the night until it all the world will revolve around forever turning down [music] from the devil's eye. I know by my trial [music] no one can stop me now. I never started talking to life and
Speaker A
never changed the I know. So what? It's spinning round and spinning round [music] and spinning round and up and down and up and down. I'm higher than the sky [music] in the space between the dark beneath the gesture of a grin that's
Speaker A
into brown. Someone's dying [music]. Someone's dying, someone's dying, someone's dying, someone's dying. You strum on the liar, watch the liar, the rest from above. Its string come undone [music]. Light of the hell is a [music] they have I can show
Speaker A
[music] dark at the until it's a nobody has. You hear it ringing [music] and laugh. The time has the beauty [music] a festival, a carnival [music] until you, until [music] you, until you're come find me.
