I've seen your face in every place that I'll be goin'

I read your words like black hungry birds read every song

Rise and fall

Spin and call

And my name

Is carnival

Sad music in the night

Sings a scream of light out of chorus

And voices you might hear appear and disappear

In the forest

Short and tall throw the ball

And my name is carnival

Strings of yellow tears

Drip from black wire fears

In the meadow

And their white halos spin

With an anger that is thin

And turns to sorrow

King of all

Hear me call

Hear my name

Carnival

Here there is no law

But the arcade's penny claw

Hanging empty

The painted laughing smile

And the turning of the style

Do not envy

And the small

Can steal the ball

To touch the face

Of carnival

The fat woman frowns

At screaming frightened clowns

That move enchanted

And a shadow lie and waits

Outside your iron gates

With one wish granted

Colours fall

Throw the ball

Play the game

Of carnival

Without a thought of size

You come to hypnotize

The danger

The world that comes apart

Has no single heart

When life is stranger

Wheel and call

Clawed dreams all

In the name

Of carnival

Wheel and call

Clawed dreams all

In the name

Of carnival

I'd say it's "sowin(g)" not "song": "I've seen your face in every place that I'll be goin'I read your words like black hungry birds read every song" -- the "sowing of seeds".

Just read this man's biography on Wikipedia, and I can't help but feel for him. This man had to be one of the most tortured, unlucky musicians of the modern era.
