This is a tale of the lives
of fools who are wise 
a balancing act of love 
hate truth and lies.

A carnival-style society 
pull up stakes no time 
to commit and contracts 
full of loopholes so 
there&#39;s always a way 
out of it.

Nothing&#39;s for certain 
too many choices keep 
our heads raised high 
to see in a consumer&#39;s 
world that the grass is 
greener on every side.

A lifelong love doesn&#39;t 
seem to be a part of 
this game of quantity 
not quality but in spite 
of it all I still hear love 
calling out my name.

First I hear you laughing
then I hear you cry
the promise of forever 
then the promise of 
goodbye.
