There is no dark side to me
You promised me that night
What you see is what you get
There will be no surprises you said
And I believed you as much as I could
But there were signs of the opposite
From the minute that we met
But part of that was what made me trust you
'Cause you would not lie and you would not steal
any more imagination from inside this Ferris Wheel
That is my own desire to be different someday
More like you are, is getting in my way
There is a dark side to me
I promised you that night
What you see isn't always what you get
There will be some surprises I bet
But you appeased me as much as you could
'Cause there were signs of divinity
In my struggle to be free
But part of that was what made you love me
'Cause I would not lie and I would not steal
any more imagination from inside this Ferris Wheel
That is my own desire to be different someday
More like you are, is getting in my way
Ribbon candy falling fast
Deep inside my lover's oven
Is there hope to melt the sugar
That begets the bittersweet
Ribbon candy tripping over
All the lies and slow surrender
That is champion of defeat in matters such as these
In my attempts to please you, in matters such as these
