There is no dark side to me 

You promised me that night 

What you see is what you get - 

There will be no surprises you said 

And I believed you as much as I could 

But there were signs of the opposite 

From the minute that we met 

But part of that was what made me trust you 



‘Cause you would not lie and you would not steal 

any more imagination from inside this Ferris Wheel 

That is my own desire to be different someday 

More like you are… is getting in my way 



There is a dark side to me 

I promised you that night 

What you see isn't always what you get - 

There will be some surprises I bet 

But you appeased me as much as you could 

‘Cause there were signs of divinity 

In my struggle to be free 

But part of that was what made you love me 





‘Cause I would not lie and I would not steal 

any more imagination from inside this Ferris Wheel 

That is my own desire to be different someday 

More like you are… is getting in my way 



Ribbon candy falling fast 

Deep inside my lover's oven 

Is there hope to melt the sugar 

That begets the bittersweet 

Ribbon candy tripping over 

All the lies and slow surrender 

That is champion of defeat in matters such as these 

In my attempts to please you… in matters such as these
