Carnevale

You live for the game
So long as you're in control
Marionette pain
Twisting to your rules
I watch you collect abandoned truths
Counterfeit to fit the ruse
A bet that you could never lose
Dealing a stacked deck of fools
Hate to break it to you, Michaelangelo
This prima donna has seen a show
Or two
Try to capture my entertainment
Feed on a new derangement
Love, that's what you call
A fallacy
Welcome to my carnevale
Mistress of forbidden fruits
Tickets at the door, don't run
Why, dear, you look a bit confused
Our world is somewhat Topsy Turvey
Realm of Wonder, Land of Youth
Hope that you're still having fun
When your loopholes knot a noose
