County Fair

Underneath the broken lights
of the county fair
You were trying to put a circle
on a plastic square
Every time you missed, you laughed
and I find, I still miss that
Won't you come to the county fair? To the county fair.
Games designed to take your cash,
and rickety rides that go so fast
When the carny guy gave a smile,
I saw that he had one tooth.
And the carny girl
sits at a kissing booth
Won't you come to the county fair? To the county fair.

Lots of people talk about the good times that they had
When I hear people talk like this it always makes sad
There are times when the city holds on to it's breath
And though you've been after me, you aint catch me yet
not yet
And the bus don't come on time
when you're at the end of the line
some say you gotta have patience with a smile
There are times when the city holds on to it's breath
And though you've been after me, you aint catch me yet
not yet
Folks around here
never walk that slow
they always seem
to be on the go
There are times when the city holds on to it's breath
And though you've been after me, you aint catch me yet
not yet

I was walking round,
Thinking of the end
I was drawn to you,
like an old familiar friend
There's something safe,
in the way that you smell
I was drawn to you
like Dante's writing of hell
Headed down a path
I feel I cannot change
Headed like a moth towards a flame
I was reaching out
with more than my hand
I was drawn to you
lie a castaway looks for land
When I got too close
you vanished from my sight
I was drawn to you
like the dawn ends the night
Headed down a path
I feel I cannot change
Headed like a moth towards a flame
I was walking round,
Thinking of the end
I was drawn to you,
like an old familiar friend

Something always makes me run to you
I don't know just what I ought to do
Into your arms
keeps me from harm
Into your arms
I stay
Even when you play me for a fool
Something always makes me run to you
Into your arms
keeps me from harm
Into your arms
I stay

Don't say that you're sorry anymore
So I'll say I'm sorry for before
That's not really an apology
When you want to hear those words from me.
How many times are we gonna play this game?
Of who was right and who is to blame?
That's not really an apology
When you want to hear those words from me.
Why can't you just say you're in the wrong?
Instead of bringing up my flaws?
That's not really an apology
When you want to hear those words from me.

Under pressure once again,
from the forces inside my head
driving my body like a machine
to a place I should not be
Hey now baby it's not my fault,
My mind is outta control,
Hey now baby it's not my fault,
something's wrong with my soul
Making bad choices too many times,
Think I'd learn to make it right
feel like a puppet on string
I wonder who's in control of me?
Hey now baby it's not my fault,
My mind is outta control,
Hey now baby it's not my fault,
something's wrong with my soul

So the day begins,
as it often starts
There's a pain in my heart
Why are we,
so far apart?
Now there's a pain in my heart
We thought that we
were being so smart
Now there's a pain in my heart
We said that nothing would
tear us apart
Now there's a pain in my heart
Now we're alone,
sleeping in the dark
Now there's a pain in my heart
A pain in my heart
A pain my heart
Now there's a pain my heart

You can call the moon,
Anything you like,
That don't mean
it's gonna change
Things are what they are
No matter what you feel
You can pray for a thousand years
but you'll have to deal
with it
You can stare at the cards
that you were dealt
that don't mean that
it's gonna change
Things are what they are
No matter what you feel
You can pray for a thousand years
but you'll have to deal
with it
You can yell at walls
and punch them too
that don't mean
it's gonna change
Things are what they are
No matter what you feel
You can pray for a thousand years
but you'll have to deal
with it

I didn't know where to go, oh yeah.
I went down to mexico, oh yeah
I didn't know what to say, oh yeah
I didn't know what to do, oh yeah
Someday it'll be ok
I wandered down to the beach, oh yeah
I couldn't find what I need, oh yeah
I watched the waves caress the sand, oh yeah
I couldn't feel you hold my hand, oh yeah
Someday it'll be ok
Someday it'll be ok

The light at the end is a train
It's gonna take me far away
The light at the end is a train
It's gonna take me far away
Where I'm bound I cannot say
All I know is I really cannot stay
The light at the hotel's always on
No matter what you did it's not wrong
The light at the hotel's always on
No matter what you did it's not wrong
When I lay head to count some sheep
I find that I just cannot sleep
The light in the diner shines so bright
offers food and comfort from the night
The light in the diner shines so bright
offers food and comfort from the night
The server always has a smile
And I forget my troubles for awhile

There's a dark cloud that seems to follow me,
No matter how happy I seem to be
People ask me how is your day?
I give a smile and say it's ok
Darkness stays with me
like a haunting dream
I try to keep it hidden
in plain sight
People see what they wanna see
They can't tell there's something wrong with me
whenever there's a crack in my facade
I tell a joke and then I laugh it off
Darkness stays with me
like a haunting dream
I try to keep it hidden
in plain sight
For the few that have figured out
what my thoughts are really all about
I tell those few that I'll be alright
Thoughts that echo all through the night
