[Verse 1]
In the dead of night, deep inside my cell
Saw the brightest light shine from somewhere else
As it came to life, felt it cast its spell
And the carousel was turning
[Verse 2]
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
[Verse 3]
Middle of the dark and I'm lying all alone
Little green spark, twinkle shining from my phone
I don't know what I'm searching for, but why not
Wishing on a start, my hands are white hot
Now I've got all the colors in a whirl
Revolving while I spin and swirl
Everybody follow me, follow me
'Cause I've got all the colors in the world
Tour all these sites like I'm on a boat
Float, maneuvering my eye site high on a post
Ghosts illuminate the night like two minute lite bright
In tune with the zeitgeist, the movement is so human and life-like
Forget the small talk, gimme the festival slot, the best that y'all got
Leave me up here on my pedestal
While the rest of y'all watch the spectacle
Please don't let me fall off
[Verse 4]
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
[Verse 5]
I have never seen you (But I know you're over there)
I have never seen you (But I know you're over there)
I have never seen you (But I know you're over there)
I have never seen you
[Verse 6]
We are aliens and odd ones orphaned by chosen boundaries
Adorned in algorithm, the schisms of hidden industries
In the streets we all are strangers
Gaze in the faces, disconnect
We form, we clique, repeat, deform and in defeat we disrespect
We are all those orphans who can't forgive our families
A tribe that's not divided, just blinded by our realities
Our scars are what bind us, we toss and scream and lay awake
The antidote of the in between is to put our dreams on layaway
[Verse 7]
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
[Verse 8]
All I wanted
All I wanted
[Verse 9]
All I wanted (Was to win at everything and never fail)
All I wanted (Was to live my life upon a carousel)
All I wanted (Was to win at everything and never fail)
All I wanted (Was to live my life upon a carousel)
[Verse 10]
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
[Verse 11]
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
I'm on a carousel
[Verse 12]
In the dead of night, deep inside my cell
Saw the brightest light shine from somewhere else
As it came to life, felt it cast its spell
And the carousel was turning
