The Dark Ride

I wore out time
Used up all that should be mine
Shit-faced, watch soaps
I only laugh at my own jokes
Gun fingered, I pop
Competitors on game show spots
Lucked out, she wins
A home to fake orgasms in
Sirens they call to me
Come on the dark ride
Sirens they call me
In from the outside
The dark ride, the dark ride
Sirens call me on the dark ride
Idle, I pray
Wish me on a holiday
No sweat, I kneel
Faking hope until it's real
I drowned the years
In a honeymooner's tears
Stranger, here's the proof
That's me in the photo booth
Sirens they call to me
Come on the dark ride
Sirens they call me
In from the outside
The dark ride, the dark ride
Sirens call me on the dark ride
The dark ride, the dark ride
Sirens call me on the dark ride
(Unintelligible)
I'll make your bad times disappear
Don't need a shrink, I got no fear
I'll make your bad times disappear
Don't need a shrink, I got no fear
Fear, fear, fear, fear, fear, fear
The dark ride, the dark ride
Sirens call me
The dark ride, the dark ride
Sirens call me, sirens call me
The dark ride, the dark ride
Sirens call me, sirens call me
The dark ride, the dark ride
Sirens call me on the dark ride
