Carousel

歌詞

I've been holding on too tight to let you go Now I'm sinking in the mire Wish we could go back to how it was But we're too close to the wire Cross the line on my horizon Sapiens pervade like a virus Finding solace in isolation If the wolf cries "boy" Keep calm, carry on Dead among the living Nothing to believe in Making sinners of saints All the fears unfaced Swarming all around me like ants As the flame is prised away from the moth Stronger in their numbers Turning on each other Is this out of our hands? Holding on too tight to let you go I'm sinking in the mire Wish we could go back to how it was But we're too close to the wire If I give them an inch, they take a mile Does love have to be tough? Cruel to be kind Think of all the people you have turned your back on Do you mourn the lost souls from your pale high horse? I've been holding on too tight to let you go I'm sinking in the mire Wish we could go back to how it was But we're too close to the wire Fly without fear of landing Welcome into the fold Not all who wander shall be lost Surrounded yet somewhat lonely The carousel claims its toll Paying a price, not counting costs What if the weight is lifted When we are all renewed? When will the penny ever drop? Who will our burdens carry? Who will not shed a tear If our pulse should ever stop? Hold on tight and never let me go Take me back to how it was before Hell knows I was holier than thou But heavy is the head that wears the crown
