about

a country song for a carnival grrl

lyrics

i saw her standing, swaying, hand pressed against the bar
her eyes were orbs enchanted by horses and circling cars
mary-go-round you're in charge
and i'm no criminal
the bad i want to do to you is minimal
the way it's bad it hurts too good to even speak
the way it's bad it hurts so good it leaves you weak
yea time's been good to me! i learned a lot that i will gladly give for free
the way you look at things
the way you look at me
i feel alive i'm feeling more than holy!
she looked right at me and i felt reckless
fingers around the lever!
goddess of witness!
slow horses i'm dying to ride
mary-go-round take your time
and i'm no criminal
the bad i want to do to you is minimal
the way it's bad it hurts too good to even speak
the way it's bad it hurts so good it leaves you weak
yea time's been good to me! i learned a lot that i will gladly give for free
the way you look at things
the way you look at me
i feel alive i'm feeling more than holy!
i saw her standing, swaying, hand pressed against the bar
her eyes were orbs enchanted by horses and circling cars
mary-go-round you're in charge
mary-go-round you're in charge
mary-go-round you're in charge
