Lyrics

The following represents the lyrics as they are heard in the song's demo version:

    Who'll ride this dying carousel?
    Four rusted horses strangled by their own rope
    What children love is singing "we'll know that their tied hearts sit broke,"
    "That their tied hearts sit broke"
    
    Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
    To make sure that I stay dead
    Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
    To make sure that I stay dead
    
    I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
    Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale
    I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
    Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale
    
    Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
    To make sure that I stay dead
    Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
    To make sure that I stay dead
    
    You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
    You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
    Useless in Hell
    
    I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
    Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale
    I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
    Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale
    
    Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
    To make sure that I stay dead
    Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
    To make sure that I stay dead
    
    You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
    You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
    You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
    You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
    Useless in Hell
    
    Who'll ride this dying carousel?
    Four rusted horses strangled by their own rope
    What children love is singing "we'll know that their tied hearts sit broke,"
    "That their tied hearts sit broke,"
    Now that their tied hearts sit broke
