The World Is A Gumball

The world is a gumball
Put it in your mouth
Always seems so sweet
Until the taste wears out
Until the taste wears out
Until the taste wears out

Alone in the fairground
Feeding the machines
A prize you didn't want
A game you'll never win
And in the dark something
That wants to keep you in

What do you say when they ask where you're going?
What if your words just turn into nothing?
I was right there, other side of the mirror
How do you sleep, are you tired, are you dreaming now?

The girl is a monster
Here in the sideshow
The last of her kind
Full of fear and hope
And ideas of her own
Penny for a throw
This is what you chose

What do you say when they ask where you're going?
What if your words just turn into nothing?
I was right there, other side of the mirror
How do you sleep, are you tired, are you dreaming now?

What do you say when they ask what you wanted?
Trying so hard but it all turns to nothing
I was right there, staring out from the mirror
How do you sleep, are you tired, are you dreaming now?

'Cause mine is a bed of nails
Mine is a bed of nails
